THE BRIEF

A bigger Easter. In every sense.

Hotel Chocolat was launching a new collection of luxury Ostrich Eggs, each weighing 1kg and retailing at £90.

The challenge was twofold: establish the eggs as a desirable premium Easter purchase, while communicating their extraordinary scale, something that hadn't always translated through previous campaign imagery.

THE THINKING

Easter is all about hiding chocolate.
Ours was too good to hide.

We turned that familiar ritual on its head, creating a campaign built around chocolate worth showing off.
Too Good to Hide gave the collection a playful, distinctive idea that could work across the entire Easter campaign.
CREATIVE DIRECTION

Making size part of the story.

A playful visual world built around the extraordinary proportions of the Ostrich Eggs.
Familiar objects, unexpected compositions and bold colour gave the collection a sense of scale and theatre, while keeping the chocolate firmly in the spotlight.
