Hand-made chocolate bunny heads

For the past couple of years I have made chocolate bunny heads filled with hand-made honeycomb, both of which can be found on my 'in my kitchen' page. This year I wanted to keep them simple with three layers of chocolate in white, milk and dark. I also coloured their eyes with blue chocolate and their noses with pink chocolate.

I also made one without white chocolate for my friend who isn't so keen on it!
