For most folks, Easter is an excuse to indulge in chocolates. This year, you can do that and help sick kids by treating yourself and your family to a bespoke Chocolate Bunny (or two) available through Woolworths, Big W and Thomas Dux stores nationwide.

Family-owned business Chocolatier Australia has partnered with Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia to help raise vital funds for seriously ill and injured children across Australia. The bespoke Chocolate Bunnies retail at $5 – 50c from the sale of each bunny will go directly to supporting the 5 major children’s hospitals around the country. The goal is to raise over $140,000 for the Foundation in 2013.

“We are so proud to be partnering with Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia in the celebration of Easter, knowing that we have developed an Easter treat which will give directly back to children in need across Australia” said John Grisold, Director of Chocolatier.

The bunny comes in two varieties, Milk Chocolate and Milk Chocolate-No-added sugar, with specially designed foiling in Children’s Hospital Foundations Australia colours of orange and silver.
