So a supermarket chain in Britain made avocado Easter eggs … and they’re selling briskly.

Waitrose unveiled a chocolate Easter egg in the shape of millennials’ favorite fruit — the avocado. The treat, which sells for about $11, looks like an avocado cut in half with a stone.

Here’s how British newspaper the Telegraph described it: “The shell and stone are Belgian chocolate made with 70 (percent) cocoa, while the white chocolate middle uses natural coloring to imitate the green flesh of the fruit. Despite the physical resemblance, the egg’s flavor is 100 (percent) chocolate.”

Pastry chef Dominique Ansel, the creator of the Cronut, also took a run at avocado Easter eggs with his “huevocado.”

This holiday treat is made from rich chocolate and filled with mini white chocolate egg truffles. It retails for $22, but the sad news is it’s not available for shipping. (You have to pick it up at the Los Angeles bakery.)
