This year, [Chococo's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tenderstem-tenderchoc) newest chocolate eggs for Easter include faceted 'MegaDark' and 'MegaMilk' eggs, both of which boast cocoa from a single source. As its name suggests, the 85% MegaDark egg is made with only Madagascan dark chocolate, while the MegaMilk variety boasts 65% milk chocolate from the same source. In terms of taste, the brand describes that the strong taste of chocolate is softened with notes of red berry in both of its new [chocolate Easter egg products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pistachio-kataifi-breton-egg).

In the same way that consumers have come to know the term "[single-origin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-good-microbatch-collection)" in relation to a product like coffee, this phrase is now also being applied to other products where fair and ethical production is often a concern.

Chococo produces a range of novelty chocolate products, including sets that resemble unexpected food items, as well as Easter eggs with additional surprises inside.
