Speaking of Ethel M Chocolate check out what the Easter Bunny left me for an early Easter treat!

The Ethel M Fruit Truffle Egg Chocolate collection is just heavenly. Each truffle is about the size of a small egg, and melts instantly in your mouth. The raspberry ganache filled egg was simply divine!

The Fruit Truffle Egg is just one half of Ethel M’s Easter Collection. But you better hop online or to an Ethel M store quickly, or you will miss the limited run of these amazing Easter Treats!

Ethel M Chocolates Hatches Limited-Time-Only 2012 Easter Collection
Making a seasonal return, the Peanut Butter Truffle Box includes both milk and dark chocolate eggs filled with creamy, home-made peanut butter made from real roasted peanuts with a hint of sea salt. The Ethel M Fruit Truffle Egg Box has also become a spring tradition over the years, featuring a variety of, ganache-filled chocolates including Key Lime, Strawberry, Lemon and Raspberry. Both collections are presented in premium pastel iridescent packaging that will make a lasting impression in any Easter basket.
Both collections retail for $22 and feature eight individually hand airbrushed pieces, making every chocolate a unique piece of edible art.
New this year, Ethel M will debut three spring-themed Keepsake Truffle Tins, each featuring a choice of handmade and hand-packed gourmet milk, dark and vanilla truffles. The truffle tins retail for $18 and include 12 pieces.

My personal favorite part of the Ethel M Chocolate (besides the awesome taste) is that each piece of chocolate is crafted at the Ethel M Chocolates factory in Henderson and contains no preservatives.
