Flock to the Dock to see Liverpool’s Largest Chocolate Egg

This Easter weekend, visitors can head to Royal Albert Dock Liverpool from 19-22nd April to marvel at Liverpool’s largest chocolate easter egg, and take part in the Guess the Weight competition to be in with a chance of winning a Royal Albert Dock experience, along with the egg itself.

The enormous milk chocolate egg is part of the Royal Albert Dock’s Hop to the Dock Easter celebrations and will be on display on the Britannia Pavillion outside Lunyalita. The egg, which took 3 men to make over a period of 10 hours, spans 30 inches in height and 20 inches in width, standing nearly 2-metres tall on the eye-catching display case. The chocolate creation is visually stunning, decorated with Albert Dock’s signature branding, along with delicate butterflies and
flowers, making for the perfect selfie opportunity against the stunning backdrop of the iconic Three Graces.

The Albert Dock promo team will be on hand 12-4pm from Friday to Monday with iPads for visitors to submit their guesses of the weight of the egg, which can also be done through the Albert Dock website. The prize for whoever guesses the exact or closest weight off the egg includes an overnight stay at Holiday Inn Express, a family voucher for Mattel Play, a meal at their choice of Dock restaurants with a value up to £150, a goodie bag filled with treats from Tate
Liverpool, The Nest, Quay Confectionary, Roly’s Fudge, With Love from Liverpool, and the giant egg.

In addition to the competition, the eclectic selection of bars, restaurants and retailers make the Dock a great destination for some memorable Easter celebrations with family and friends. The beautiful waterfront location is great spot for browsing through the un-rivalled selection of independent stores, including the Nest, Mi Apparel concept store, Hush Luxe pop-up and Lost Soles to name a few, whilst Rosa’s Thai Cafe, Lunyalita, and Gusto are just a few examples of the
diverse dining options which can be enjoyed for brunch, lunch or dinner.
