I decided to buy a few little Easter treats on offer in Tesco and this Thorntons Harry Hopalot (smooth chocolatey filling) was one of them. It came in a green and orange wrapper and featured a cute cartoon of Harry.

The ‘milk chocolate with smooth chocolate truffle (42%) filling’ contained a minimum of 30% cocoa solids and 20% milk solids and was pretty much the same product as the The Snowman chocolate truffle from the Thorntons The Snowman and the Snowdog: Christmas selection box that I’ve previously reviewed. However, this bar had a higher proportion of truffle.

I loved Harry Hopalot’s appearance of a bunny rabbit holding an Easter egg. He had a smooth, pale filling and smelt decently of chocolate. The shape also meant this bar was a bit chunkier than the snowman-shaped chocolate truffle so I enjoyed this aspect.

In terms of flavour, there was no difference. It was still very chocolatey (and a bit like Lindt Lindor) but, unfortunately, not that exciting. However, there was certainly nothing wrong with Harry, and I found this to be a nice novelty product.
