Easter is a time for family, for gathering around the table with loved ones and sharing stories, laughter, and delicious food. 


As children, we remember waking up early on Easter morning, filled with excitement and anticipation as we searched for hidden eggs and eagerly awaited the arrival of the Easter Bunny.

Now, as adults, we carry on those traditions with our families. We dye eggs, bake sweet treats, and enjoy a special Easter brunch together. And one of our favourite parts of the holiday is indulging in some delicious Easter sweets, like the speckled and praline eggs from Rita Farhi.
