It’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory time over at Lyon’s Cafe Bakeshop. These clever people have hidden 5 Golden Tickets in their homemade Easter Eggs. The lucky winners get dessert and coffee for two in their brand new dessert cafe.
At the chocolate shop and baking emporium Le Fournil, there are chocolate temptations to thrill the taste buds. Their Easter Delight is a light chocolate mousse with a vanilla crème brulee centre and a chocolatey base. Mmmm
Back in Strandhill Mamma Johnston’s have an all in Easter confection consisting of a chocolatey, ice creamy, Easter eggy dessert. It’ll take quite the applied chocoholic to polish one of those off.
