A food reviewer has delivered a surprisingly positive verdict on Domino's Pizza's controversial garlic and herb flavoured white chocolate Easter egg, awarding it a high score despite the unconventional flavour combination dividing opinions online.
The Controversial Easter Creation
With Easter approaching and chocolate eggs filling supermarket shelves, Domino's has unleashed what might be the most divisive seasonal treat of 2026. The garlic and herb dip Easter egg, which first appeared as a "world first" limited edition in 2025, pairs white chocolate with the savoury flavours of the pizza chain's beloved dipping sauce.
The egg comes complete with its own matching garlic and herb dip for those who want to intensify the experience. While many consumers adore Domino's signature sauce for pizza crust dipping, transferring that flavour profile to a sweet Easter treat has proven controversial.
Reviewer's Unexpected Verdict
Social media food reviewer Big Daddy B, who shares content under the premise of "trying Easter Eggs so you don't have to," recently sampled the unusual creation and delivered a verdict that surprised even himself.
"Inside the box, you get a white chocolate, garlic and herb egg along with the classic garlic and herb dip," he explained. "It's a white chocolate egg with garlic and herb flavour, which you can smell right away. Now, I know a lot of people will be on the fence about this, and I was too, but I was pleasantly surprised."
The reviewer praised how the product "blends the creaminess of white chocolate with the savoury essence of the beloved Domino's garlic and herb dip. And for some reason, it just works. And if you really wanna turn it up a notch, then dip it in the garlic and herb dip, which is so wrong, but tastes so right."
Despite initial scepticism, Big Daddy B admitted he "loved" the egg, awarding it an impressive "nine out of 10 overall" rating.
Public Reaction Remains Divided
Online reactions to both the product and the positive review have been sharply divided. In comment sections, some users expressed horror at the concept, with one posting a gif of a cat repeatedly shaking its head in apparent disgust.
"You know what? It's my fault for having a phone," wrote one commenter, while another joked: "I'm gonna buy this for my mate just to p*** him off." Many simply couldn't comprehend that such a product actually exists for purchase.
This polarised response echoes the initial reaction when the egg launched in 2025. At that time, some understood what Domino's was attempting to achieve, while others were "utterly appalled" by the very concept.
Previous Testing and Current Availability
When the Mirror sampled the egg in 2025, their reviewer noted being "pleasantly surprised by the fact that it mostly tasted of white chocolate" and could "hardly even taste the dip." However, they also detected a distinctly "lettuce" flavour and stated they wouldn't recommend it "to their worst enemy."
The limited edition egg appears to have vanished from mainstream online retailers, but one recently sold on eBay for an eye-watering £52.70, suggesting dedicated collectors or curious food adventurers might still find it through resale platforms.
The original product listing described it as "a playful nod to the festive season, crafted for those who appreciate the essence of garlic and herbs in their culinary adventures" and "a novel addition to your Easter basket or a conversation starter at any gathering."
Whether viewed as a culinary abomination or an innovative flavour experiment, Domino's garlic and herb Easter egg continues to spark debate and curiosity as Easter approaches, proving that even in the world of seasonal chocolate, controversy can create unexpected interest.
