2019 is shaping up to be a bizarro year. A U.K. chocolate company has released a *unique* chocolate bunny just in time for Easter. It’s called the “Chocolate Cumberbunny,” and yes, you guessed it — the thing has the face of actor Benedict Cumberbatch. Hoo boy.
Created by Chocolatician, a chocolatier that specializes in “the art, science, & magic of chocolate,” as their slogan claims, the Chocolate Cumberbunny is a handmade Belgian chocolate rabbit that weighs in at 400 grams and costs a whopping £39.95 ($52.11). The Chocolatician website also notes that each Chocolate Cumberbunny boasts “a handsome face and a tasty bottom.” Nice.
You can have your Cumberbunny one of three ways. He — erm, it — comes in milk, dark, or limited-edition white chocolate. The milk and dark chocolate varieties are coated in gold or bronze luster dust. And the white chocolate Cumberbunny comes accessorized with a 22-carat gold bowtie, because we all know that Cumberbatch is a classy gent.
Why wouldn’t his chocolate rabbit counterpart be the same?
“He will spring from his white warren box with a beautiful orange ribbon and sealed in a cellophane bag for freshness,” the site reads. Sorry, but we don’t like the visual we’re getting of this thing “springing.”
These guys have actually been around for the past few years. But with the Easter season just ahead, the Cumberbunnies are coming back to the mainstream.
Here they are getting dolled up and ready to ship out.
If Benedict Cumberbatch isn’t your boo of choice, the Chocolatician also makes a Chocolate Gosling. It’s a chocolate duck with Ryan Gosling’s mug, and it’s pretty terrifying.
You’re wheezing? We’re wheezing! We literally cannot breath, people!
It's look delicious but it's looks creepy at the same time 😅😅😅

Some happy Easter news: the chocolate Cumberbunny is currently on sale. I tried one last year and can confirm that it did taste the way Benedict looks: delicious. 😛 https://t.co/A0b3wYaxQD

WHERE DID THAT MILK CHOCOLATE BUST OF CUMBERBATCH COME FROM? This is getting OUT OF HAND.
Went to a chocolate festival with some friends today. Not only did we find a chocolate Benedict Cumberbatch but also such a thing as a chocolate cumberbunny! This world is crazy, crazier still is that I want one... #chocolate #benedictcumberbatch pic.twitter.com/Ahud308fHU

Wait — this is actually incredible. The Chocolatician not only created a Benedict Cumberbatch chocolate bust, but they also chocolatized the Queen and Frida Khalo.
Okay, Chocolatician. You win. We’re coming around to the idea of celebrating Easter with a Chocolate Cumberbunny and maybe a Chocolate Gosling.
Horrified colleague just asked whether the chocolate cumberbunny also came with nuts.
