Isn’t there supposed to be a chocolate bunny in the bottom half of the box where the cut out is?
Not only that, but the egg on the box is actual size too. It just looks smaller in that picture because most of it is covered in cardboard. Here’s the same box in good lighting.
Seems the asshole here is OP.
Or the person who gifted this to OP after eating the bunny
Unlikely. The simplest explanation is generally most plausible, either:
-
OP got an already opened box from someone, failed to notice the box was already open, failed to read the text in the box, failed to notice the prominent chocolate bunny on the box, failed to understand the purpose of the cardboard in the box, accidentally obscured text on the box with poor lighting, unintentionally took a misleading picture, and posted it into the internet as a genuine complaint.
-
Or, OP saw protective cardboard around a fragile hollow chocolate egg and decided to lie on the internet.
-
The box was clearly designed for a larger egg. The fact they made the image the same size doesn’t neglect the fact that shrinkflation has occurred.
The only reason the box size hasn’t changed is to fool buyers on the potential size of the egg. If it was box was correctly sized, most people would have selected a different egg.
The bottom right of the packaging seems to imply so

Lindt does. Duh.
Speaking as a designer, someone who is not getting paid enough to feel their soul chip away one project at a time.
(Checks notes…) looks like Lindt. And if they get away with it, expect to see it happen a lot more often, from them & others who follow their lead. :-(
OP took out the bunny before taking the pic. There is both an egg and a bunny in that box and they are both similarly sized as advertized on the packaging.
Thank you :-).
Not defending anytime that this crops up in other products, but it’s a gift packaging for an Easter egg… hardly the kind of NFSF that’s going to impact your life every day
Lindt I imagine. Could be wrong tho
The look on that bunny’s face doesn’t exactly scream “honest business”
This post’s picture is misleading due to missing the bunny at the bottom but I’ll leave it up so as to not nuke the comment thread and because even with the bunny, that’s still a lot of wasted space in that package.
Isn’t most of that recyclable? Or at the very least, I imagine the cardstock that the holder is made from is relatively biodegradable. At least it’s not a ton of plastic.
I’m becoming supicious that there is a conspiracy by corporations to use as much packaging ad possible.
Someone who wanted to smuggle a sega genesis cartridge, an N64 expansion card, and one 9V battery.

Nah, OP removed half the product and took a photo.
