In another news! Following on from the popularity of last year’s miniature chocolate pumpkins, this year John Lewis is introducing a supersized pumpkin treat.
For the first time the star of Halloween is a huge, hollow pumpkin – which can be filled with gruesome goodies or used as a party serving bowl. The hand-sculpted design is made from Belgian milk chocolate, yum.
