When I got an e-mail asking if I would like to review some of Betty's Easter treats, there was only going to be one answer! As regular readers will know, we are big fans of Betty's and a trip out to the tearooms in either Ilkley or Harrogate is a huge treat for us, as this post shows!
We received a Swaledale Sheep egg and some Milk and White Chocolate Lambs. I had to hide the egg because I knew my children couldn't be trusted around it! The lambs I gave them as treats if they had been good. The lambs break in half so are quite a nice size for a treat. We decided to take the egg up to my Grandma's and share it around last weekend. It was very well received. I am not usually a fan of white chocolate but this was absolutely delicious and the effect on the outside of the egg was fantastic.
What they say
White Chocolate Swaledale Sheep Egg - Made from Swiss white chocolate stippled with milk chocolate, this enchanting Easter egg is decorated in hand-piped white and dark chocolate with spring flowers and one of Yorkshire's own Swaledale sheep. 15cm high | 180g - £13.95
Milk and White Chocolate Lambs - Where would Easter be without lambs? These loveable characters are handmade and have dark chocolate faces and their own bells. Boxes of 4 - £5.95

Would I buy it?
I would definitely buy them as a special treat. I probably wouldn't be able to afford more than one though! For an extra special Easter treat I think it is worth the money.
