The most charming expression of the finest Lindt Chocolate, the iconic Gold Bunny was created by Lindt’s Maitres Chocolatiers in 1952 to capture the joy of Easter. Today, the Gold Bunny is a recognized symbol of Easter around the world, and a playful part of Easter traditions from arts and crafts to baking to table decor and gifting (just look to Pinterest if you have any doubt!)
This year, I wanted to incorporate the Lindt Gold Bunny in an Easter table with a little more glam for grown-ups and children alike. Because Easter is such a symbol of Spring, it’s no surprise that the majority of decor items are in pastels. I wanted to go outside the box and decorate with gold and red touches and – of course – the Gold Bunny was the perfect star of our table setting.
Touches of gold (yellow) and red were simple to incorporate with a spring themed table runner, red napkins, gold candles and flowers. Then, adding the Lindt Gold Bunny to each table setting was the perfect invitation to sit down and join together in conversation and a great meal.
The centerpiece was a delicious strawberry shortcake topped with Lindt Chocolate Bunnies as well, making the dessert the star of the day!
Our own family has always celebrated Easter in our own household, because of the nature of my husband’s work and the inability to get together with extended family far away. Still, we have some great memories at our various detachments including our first Easter at our second RCMP post a week after we had moved into our new home, and a children’s Easter egg hunt one year when we didn’t have any snow (fingers crossed for this year!) The Easter bunny doesn’t bring toys for our kids (that’s Santa’s gig) but he does bring us chocolate, and chocolate is happiness!
The Gold Bunny is available in a variety of sizes including mini (used on the cake), 50g, 100g, 200g and even a 1kg size which retails for $83.99! You can even personalize your Gold Bunny with a name or message printed on the red ribbon at select Lindt Stores across Canada.

You can also download a fun Lindt Storybook App, “The Bell That Rang In Easter” which is a true story about how the Gold Bunny’s creation came to be.

The Lindt Bunnies have always been a favourite in our house since I was a kid. We love hiding the little eggs around the house for when the kids wake up.
We hide Easter eggs and eat the ones we dyed.
Easter egg hunts have always been a great time at our house. Everyone gets into the frenzy and mayhem.
We do an egg hunt at Grandmas ad just make baskets at home for my 2 little ones <3
We colour eggs, we have an Easter Egg Hunt, make my grandmother’s Hot Cross Buns and we always have a big dinner!
Our Easter Traditions start with attending Mass Holy Thursday, then the Good Friday Service, the Easter Vigil on Saturday and Easter Sunday Mass. If daughter and son-in-law are home with little man, he gets an Easter Basket filled with wonderful Lindt treats and adults get a Lindt Easter bunny. If it is just us and adult son home, we exchange Lindt bunnies. We enjoy an Easter meal – roast turkey and the fixings (if daughter et al are home) or baked ham and the fixings (if we are a small gathering.)
Love, love, love Lindt chocolate. The Lindt chocolate prize package would make a wonderful Easter treat to share with our extended family. I do an Easter hunt with a religious theme and a second one with Easter treats at my mom’s house for my four nieces and nephews and my grandson; it’s a tradition they all look forward to. The little gold bunnies would be great to include in the Easter egg hunt for the kids.
There is a great community egg hunt in our neighbourhood that we have done the last three years.

Lindt products of some sort are always there. The rest of the day is spent snacking on chocolate and waiting for dinner 😉

Then we would play board games and Xbox games and have a break when we would decorate sugar cookies that were shaped like bunnies and eat them and other snacks and drinks. It was a lot of fun.
