The village of Bunny lived up to its name as a giant Easter bunny appeared on its village green.
To kick off Easter celebrations in style, KitKat Bunny brought a special visitor to the Nottinghamshire village - a giant bunny made of real chocolate. The parish also joined in the fun and officially renamed the village from Bunny to Easter Bunny Village for the day.
Standing 10ft tall, the Bunny holds a hand-made basket made from real chocolate, filled with 698 KitKat Bunny treats, one for every resident of the newly named Easter Bunny village.
The gargantuan bunny, which weighs 50 kilos and took 305 hours to build, was put up in the village at 5am on Saturday morning to give the villagers of Bunny an Easter surprise to wake up to. The bunny’s chocolate feet and woven basket were hand-made by one of Nestlé’s expert chocolatiers.
Lucy Fawcett, seasonal brand manager at KITKAT said: “Easter is the perfect time of year to celebrate with the gift of chocolate, and here at Nestlé, we’re not the only ones with a spring in our step. It was wonderful to see the thrilled reaction of residents as their village green hosted a very special visit from our giant Easter Bunny, who was of course, bearing some delicious gifts.’
“We’re kicking off Easter festivities in style in the newly renamed Easter Bunny Village and we have a fantastic range of KitKat Bunny treats to celebrate and have a break on us with.’’
Nestlé has also donated a bench to the village green in Bunny so residents can enjoy a break on KitKat, even after Easter festivities.
The KITKAT Bunny, is back on sale from the KitKat Bunny 29g to the KitKat Bunny giant Easter egg.
The range will be available across the UK & Ireland
