The Easter weekend is fast approaching, and we’ve put together a list of places to pick up your Easter chocolates to share with your family, as well as some tableware ideas to dress up your table in its finest attire.
Chocolatiers
Genaveh
A marine-themed collection from the famous Luxembourg chocolatier, featuring submarines, crabs, and boats that will delight both children and adults.
Lola Valerius
The Esch-sur-Alzette chocolate shop offers a collection of ultra-colorful eggs, where yellow and orange add a vibrant touch to your chocolate tasting.
Atelier du Tricentenaire
In this workshop, the chocolate used is 100% organic and 100% Fairtrade. The Chocolats du Coeur collection is made in their workshop by staff with disabilities.
Oberweis
This year, the Luxembourg chocolatier has created “magical chocolate bunnies”, as well as magical ducks and chickens. On the dessert side, we’re loving the “chicken on ice,” a crispy praline treat with vanilla and chocolate ice cream, all sitting on a creamy hazelnut base.
Jos & Jean-Marie
At Jos & Jean-Marie, there’s a large collection of cakes shaped like eggs or adorned with bunnies. In their workshop, chocolates are also carefully crafted: rabbits in carrots, chicks, and hens – dark, white or milk chocolate, there’s something for everyone’s taste.
Table Design
Villeroy & Boch
A lovely Easter lunch requires a good meal, but it’s even better when the tableware is beautiful. Villeroy & Boch offers a spring collection where flowers and bunnies will adorn your table.
Le Creuset
A casserole pot adorned with petals or an oval serving plate with engraved flowers. As you can see, the garden joins your Easter lunch. In pastel shades, softness and freshness are on the menu.
Péckvillchercher
This bird-shaped whistle, made from clay, is a Luxembourgish tradition during Easter that has been passed down through generations. You have several options to get one: attend a workshop in Nospelt or at Nordic Stella to make one yourself, or purchase it. Some possible options: get it at the concept store “Luxembourg House” (Place d’Armes), which offers blown glass birds by glassblower artist Pascale Seil or on the Ligue HMC’s website where employees master the art of péckvillchen.
Don’t miss the traditional Easter market Éimaischen in Nospelt — the original home of the famous whistling birds, the Péckvillchercher. In this former pottery village, thousands of colourful clay whistles are sold at lovingly decorated stalls, with live music and local food rounding out the festive atmosphere. A smaller version of the market also takes place in Luxembourg City’s old town (around Rue du Marché-aux-Herbes), but it’s more of a bonus for those who can’t make it out to Nospelt — the real Éimaischen experience is out in the countryside.
