Why settle for a traditional (read: boring) chocolate bunny when the Benedict Cumberbunny exists? That's right, U.K.-based company Chocolatician is selling a version of the Easter treat that looks—almost terrifyingly—similar to the Doctor Strange star. Whose full name is actually Benedict Cumberbatch, btw.
Advertised online as "a delicious Belgian chocolate bunny with a handsome face and tasty bottom," the celebrity-inspired confection doesn't run cheap—it costs nearly $50 USD. Shipping, which takes an estimated 14 to 18 days, will cost an additional 20 bucks. While yes, this may seem a bit pricey for your typical Easter basket sweet, it's luxe.
The Cumberbunny comes in three flavors: dark chocolate with hand-glazed bronze luster dust, milk chocolate (also with bronze luster dust), and a limited-edition white chocolate Benedict with a 22 carat gold bow-tie. Told you—Lavish.
We get it though. Not everyone wants to eat a chocolate bunny modeled after the Sherlock actor. But maybe...an edible Ryan Gosling is more your speed? Though Ryan is "lovable all year round," there was a limited supply for Easter and it looks as if they've already sold out. On March 23, the Chocolatician posted a shot of the Cumberbunny and "The Gosling" chocolate goose side-by-side. "Who's on for a Cumberbatch/Gosling-off??" they wrote. However, they've since gone missing from the site.
In 2016, the brand also introduced chocolate models of Queen Elizabeth AND her beloved corgi in honor of the monarch's 90th birthday. It's still available too, but only if you've got an extra $1,951 to burn.
What—or should I say who—will they think up next?
