The Mignon chocolate egg is an Easter confectionery made by the Fazer company.[1] Its distinctive features are a filling of almond-hazelnut nougat inside a real eggshell. The Mignon is the second oldest Fazer product (only surpassed by the Pihlaja marmalade candy), dating back to 1896, when Karl Fazer brought the idea from Germany.[2]
With around two million eggs sold per year, Mignon eggs are a popular part of Finnish Easter celebrations. They are handmade at the Fazer factory in Vantaa.
