Lake Champlain Chocolates Introduces New Gifts For Spring

Lake Champlain Chocolates introduces its spring line of retail products.

Burlington, VT (PRWEB) December 6, 2005 -- Lake Champlain Chocolates (LCC), a Vermont gourmet chocolate maker, has introduced its spring line of retail products for Easter, Administrative Professionals' Day, and Mother's Day. Made in small batches from Belgian chocolate and the finest all-natural ingredients, Lake Champlain Chocolates are carefully crafted by chocolatiers who are fanatical about creating chocolates with the honest individuality, charm, quality, and freshness which are synonymous with the spirit of Vermont. Maintaining its tradition of award-winning packaging, LCC again brings customers one-of-a-kind chocolate gifts for spring.

"More media attention and consumer interest in dark chocolate means more dark Easter chocolates than ever before," said Allyson Brown, Director of Sales. "Our cheerfully-designed gift boxes are versatile enough to sell from just after Valentine’s Day through Mother’s Day."

The Treasure Surprise Egg "cracks" open to reveal an assortment of filled eggs, solid squares, and milk & dark chocolate bunnies. New this year is 48-piece Square Medallions, featuring four different kinds of chocolate. The one-pound Foiled Eggs Gift Bag has a flavor for every taste -- coconut cream, hazelnut praline, raspberry cream, caramel, peanut butter, and new dark chocolate java. "Customers wait all year for our filled chocolate eggs," said Brown. "Many flavors are only available at Easter." Eggs are also available in a new oval Easter Egg Gift Box and in bulk countertop dispensers.

The Classic Easter Bunny, in both solid milk & dark chocolate in 5- & 6-1/2-inch tall sizes, is also available in solid white chocolate in the 5-inch size. Additional Easter bunnies are Placesetting, Mr. Goodtime, and Country. All come packaged in cellophane tied with a colorful ribbon. Hopp’n Bunny is a 4-1/2-inch tall milk chocolate rabbit in a gift box with a window.

Additional Easter gifts include the Carrot, Potted Eggs, Springtime Signature Squares, 2- & 5-piece Truffles, 15-piece Chocolate Assortment, Bunny Pop, and the Peanut Butter Egg.
