this is not a chocolate easter egg.
this is an undercover, top-secret, extra-security-clearance, tell-no-one kind of situation. 🍭🍫🐰
this is the 2026 edition of the Karameller x BETA5 Polygon Egg.
maybe you got your hands on the 2025 edition.
or maybe you heard the rumours that it was the best Easter collab of all time.
this is your moment. do not miss out. limited edition. first come, first served.
on the outside: a hand-painted 66% custom-Valrhona dark chocolate polygon egg.
it looks innocent enough.
but smash it open…
on the inside: you’ll find a Swedish candy explosion — a curated springtime mix by our friends @karamellercandy — Vancouver’s iconic Swedish candy institution.
this year there’s even more candy, including:
🍌 Banana Caramel Bubs 🍉 Sour Watermelon 🌼 Happy Flowers 🍓 Strawberry Pomegranate Bubs 🍊 Grapefruit Soda Bottles 🍏 Sweet Green Apples 🦋 Duo Butterflies 🍬 Sour Mini Pacifiers
no GMOs.
no trans fats.
no high-fructose corn syrup.
available at BETA5 + @karamellercandy

does your Easter sound like this?
it should.
what if there’s a six year-old screaming with joy that they found an egg under the couch at 5:47am.
it doesn’t matter.
or there are sounds of siblings fighting over who found the last egg.
let them.
because this year, you planned ahead.
you hid your own BETA5 Marshmallow Bunny in a special hiding spot, just for you.
you found it first.
finders keepers.
you unwrap that BETA5 Marshmallow Bunny, and in an instant, everything goes silent.�you take a breath.�then, you crack it open.
this is the sound of a 66% BETA5-Valrhona dark chocolate shell cracking open in your hands.
the snap of a hand-painted chocolate bunny breaking in half.
the soft give of a house-made marshmallow inside.
it’s the most incredible marshmallow you’ve ever had.
and it’s all yours.
pure. silence. for your ears only.
get your hands on Canada’s most delicious chocolate easter bunny.
made in Vancouver, by skilled chocolatiers at BETA5, just for you.
pre-order online now for in-store pick up, local delivery, or Canada-wide shipping 🐰 �shop → link in bio
available in-store starting FRI MARCH 13th.
xo,�the Easter Bunny
PS: you never have to share. finders keepers.

Vancouver, BC
it’s me, Cupid 💘
little-known fact:
i legit carry two types of arrows.
one is a golden arrow.
it sparks lusty desire and uncontrollable feelings of love.
the other is a lead-tipped arrow.
it causes repulsion and aversion.
I like to mix it up.
but Feb 14th is no time to take chances.
sadly, i’m not around that day to help you out (i’m at a therapy session - my mom is Venus, the goddess of love, and my pops is Mars, the god of war; lots to unpack there).
and you’ve got no arrows of your own...
so what’s a mere mortal to do?
chocolate 🍫❤️💯
but before you buy a box… ask yourself:
is this a golden box?
choose wisely, friends.
PS: this first pic is BETA5’s hand-painted POP! chocolate - filled with marc de champagne ganache and strawberry jelly. it’s found in their Valentine’s Collection (24pc / 12pc / 6pc boxes), see the second pic 🙌
available online + in-store now.
first come, first served ⚡️
PPS: this flavour (which is literally STRAWBERRIES
+ CHAMPAGNE) pairs perfectly with these 💘 songs:
Dancing On My Own (Robyn, 2010)
+
Crazy In Love (Beyoncé, Jay-Z, 2003)
