There is nothing more extravagant and intriguing than a Faberge egg, and nothing that declares adoration more than chocolate.
What better way, then, to present the ultimate token of a lover's commitment than to nest it inside a hand-made, chocolate Faberge egg?
The first Faberge egg was a gift given by Czar Alexander III to his wife, Czarina Maria Federovna on an Easter morning. To the Czarina's delight, inside the jeweled, enamel egg was a golden yolk, and inside the yolk was a golden hen. Inside the hen was hidden a diamond miniature of the royal crown and a ruby egg.
The gift was so successful, Czar Alexander commissioned one for every Easter thereafter, and Faberge eggs stand until today as a symbol of undying devotion.
No doubt, you may not be able to afford a real Faberge egg, but you can bring the same delight to your beloved with this chocolate rendition of a nested Faberge egg.
Use it as an engagement ring case or as an exquisite wrapping for a gift on any special occasion.

For white chocolate, Ghirardelli's not bad, but only barely. Whatever you get, make sure it has cocoa butter in it for the best flavor and quality!
