A new dessert menu is tempting diners with creative chocolate treats.

Wahaca has launched a limited-edition collaboration with Tony’s Chocolonely, running from March 25 to April 28.

The partnership brings four new desserts and a cocktail to the menu, all designed to celebrate chocolate in playful, Mexican-inspired ways.

Thomasina Miers, co-founder of Wahaca, said: "We wanted to create something that was both delicious and fun – the kind of pudding that makes you ask what it is that your neighbour is having and if you can have one too.

"Working with Tony’s Chocolonely felt like a natural fit – they pride themselves on sourcing ingredients responsibly, but in a light-hearted, joyful way.

"We have loved designing such tantalising chocolate creations for the Easter weeks."

At the centre of the collaboration are dessert tacos made with Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate.

The ‘Everything’ Taco is filled with vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce, candied pecans, honeycomb, and a generous chunk of chocolate.

The Chocolate Cherry Taco combines cherry ripple ice cream, dark chocolate, raspberry-dusted cream, and a glossy glacé cherry.

Wahaca’s classic churros have also been given the Tony’s treatment, with two dipping options.

The Straight-Up Chocolate option features rich, velvety chocolate sauce, while the ‘Everything’ Dipping version adds chocolate shavings, candied pecans, and honeycomb.

For those seeking an indulgent drink, the Tony’s Tipsy Chocco-Latte blends Kahlúa, vodka, and chocolate cream.

It is served over ice with a chocolate-shaved rim and a seasonal chocolate egg garnish.

Guests who order from the limited-edition menu can enter a prize draw by scanning a QR code on the dessert menu.

Prizes include a year’s supply of Tony’s Chocolonely chocolate and a Wahaca churros gold card.

Nicola Matthews, head of marketing UK&I at Tony’s Chocolonely, said: "We love that by partnering with Wahaca, we're bringing an extra dose of fun to their menu this Easter.

"We're super excited for diners to enjoy our Tony’s Takeover.

"Wahaca is a great fit with our ethical and sustainable core values at Tony's too."
