The Delicious Dessert Company launches celebratory King of Eclairs dessert

The Delicious Dessert Company has launched a celebratory King of Eclairs dessert to support the nation’s tea parties and family gatherings.

The double-filled chocolate éclair comes with rich chocolate mousse and luscious caramel cream, topped with chocolate fondant and a royal gold sparkle.

The launch comes as it emerged that around four in five Brits (78%) are looking forward to the Coronation weekend, with interest peaking among young people (aged under 25) – as 83% look forward to witnessing a Royal Coronation for the first time.

Young people are most likely to be enjoying the historic event this weekend at home with family and friends. Nationally, 35% of young Brits looking forward to the Coronation will be watching the event on TV and 34% say they are looking forward to some sweet treats and tea party goodies as they enjoy the event with loved ones. A further 20% will be enjoying street parties with neighbours, while 15% will have a tea party with the family in the garden.

When it comes to favourite cakes and tea parties, the top flavours for this special weekend include: salted caramel (28%), triple chocolate (21%), chocolate orange (20%) and strawberries and cream (19%).

Claire Smith, head of insight at The Delicious Dessert Company, commented: “The Delicious Dessert Company is excited to be launching a new tasty dessert to help the nation celebrate King Charles III’s Coronation. Whether people are out and about, at a street party or enjoying the weekend at home with loved ones, The King of Eclairs is a perfect treat for the weekend and continues our ethos of re-inventing classics with a modern twist.”

The Delicious Dessert Company is the new name in luscious desserts, injecting a twist into traditional favourites for a new generation. The Delicious Dessert Co chefs toil away over their mixing bowls and melting pots to conjure up some delectable delights for people’s taste buds. There could be a fruity one, there could be a creamy one, there may be a crazy one and they’ll be in store soon for people to snap up, before someone else gets their hands on them.
