Who invented chocolate hedgehogs?
I’m not entirely sure if this is correct, but I think Purdy’s Chocolates claims to have invented the chocolate hedgehogs with the hazelnut fillings and you’ll often see the line “often imitated, never duplicated” as part of their description of the chocolates. Also, at their site it says Purdy’s is a Canadian company that started in 1907 and it says the chocolate hedgehogs is their signature, and to be honest, I didn’t know any other company made them before like a few years ago probably. I live around where the company was founded so the only chocolate hedgehogs I’ve seen/eaten are by them.
