Every year Easter returns and we gorge ourselves on chocolate. This is one chocolate however that you might want to preserve for a bit longer. Meet the world's most expensive Easter bunny.

Made by a master chocolatier from 75% Tanzanian cocoa and featuring two solitaire diamonds, this sweet creation is worth £33,000.

The bunny measures 38cm tall, and weighs 5kg, with a total of 548,000 calories. The truly luxurious feature of this Easter rabbit however, is its eyes: 1.07-carat solitaire diamonds valued at more than £25,000.

The ambitious project took two days to complete and was undertaken by pastry chef and former Chef Décor of Harrods in London, Martin Chiffers, who called the rabbit a "culinary phenomenon".

The Easter bunny was commissioned by British luxury retail site veryfirstto.com and the diamonds were provided by 77 Diamonds, owner of the largest selection of diamonds in the world.
