But I totally could do it!

SoHappy · 03-07-2012, 11:04 AM

Every year I have a Cadbury Creme Egg. Usually just that one, but it just would seem like the Season wasn't complete if that sweet egg wasn't a tiny part of it.

Dottie · 03-07-2012, 11:05 AM

Pat I'm the same way

1 egg and a pack of peeps!

Annabel Lee · 03-07-2012, 11:10 AM

If this is the kind of eggs you JUDDDing folks are eating then I am seriously thinking of jumping ships!

KeirasMom · 03-07-2012, 11:24 AM

Annabel, come on over to the dark side. We have Cadbury eggs!

Thanks ladies! Now I need to go get one! They're actually not as bad as I thought.

I don't think I've seen the mini eggs. Are they similar but smaller, or totally different?

sophiethecat · 03-07-2012, 11:37 AM

Dottie, you made me laugh with that! Thanks!

I enjoy a yearly Creme Egg too!

Annabel Lee, Hi!

Dottie · 03-07-2012, 11:39 AM

I think the minis are solid chocolate?
Gawd I used to love the speckled robins eggs. I think they were malted milk balls? But they were blue speckled and would make your mouth blue

They are malted milk and your killing me!

handbells · 03-07-2012, 11:55 AM

I love the malted milk eggs. Haven't had any this year!

Love the vanilla buttercream eggs and the chocolate covered marshmallow eggs. They are my downfall!

DD80 · 03-07-2012, 12:11 PM

YEARLY Creme egg?

You guys are so cute!

Target had them on sale for 2 (packages of 4) for $4. I bought 6 packages. Yes, some are for my husband, but they are my favorite and I stock up for the year. The year usually ends sometimes in July or August, but whatever.

I also enjoy the mini caramel eggs, the nestle crunch eggs, and the cadbury mini eggs (pure chocolate/crunchy shell). I've said for years that I truly do believe chocolate just tastes better in egg form.

The malted milk balls were my all time FAV!! Unfortunately I remember eating a huge bag of them and every last one of them came back up.

Haven't wanted them since!
BUT the Cadbury egg is a different story and at 150 cal an oeuf, I think I might have a few. Although the See's bordeaux is my number one favorite and that has 160.

I need to stop thinking about this now as it is a DD for me!

Dottie · 03-07-2012, 12:20 PM

Y'all eat the heads off the chocolate bunnies first, don't you

Yes, they are divine and also on my list of favorites (see above). I suggest you buy some immediately.

dawnyama · 03-07-2012, 02:11 PM

I love Easter candy too

Spank'd · 03-07-2012, 02:28 PM

omg. Cadbury eggs are da bomb.

Peeps are for the hubby. The day after Easter they are like 25 cents for a package. That's when I load up on Peeps!

Dottie · 03-07-2012, 03:30 PM

I freaked my son out when he was little. I floated a peep on his hot cocoa and it really disturbed him

I explained it was just a marshmallow, but to this day he won't even look at them lol.

handbells · 03-07-2012, 03:54 PM

Did you all know that they make the Cadbury eggs at Halloween too? They call them Vulture Eggs, but it's the same thing!

theredhead · 03-07-2012, 04:19 PM

Oh, my! The Cadbury Eggs don't tempt me, but I haven't have the speckled malted milk balls in ages. Gonna' have to get me some!

WHHHHHHHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTT???!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! ?!!?!

I've never heard of such a thing! I'm seriously in shock right now. How could *I* not know this? How? It's preposterous!

Demonica · 03-07-2012, 04:34 PM

Oh that would be nice!

I wish a Cadbury egg fast would give me the same results as the Atkins egg fast though!!

DD80 · 03-07-2012, 04:40 PM

Ok, now you people got me doing my homework...

From wikipedia:

Quote:

Over the years, Cadbury has introduced a number of products related to the original Creme Egg, including:

Border Creme Eggs. The first variant, wrapped in various colours of tartan foil and containing chocolate fondant. Introduced as "Fry's Border Creme Eggs" in 1970, rebranded as "Cadbury Border Creme Eggs" in 1974 and discontinued in 1981.
Mini Creme Eggs (bite-sized Creme Eggs)
Caramel Eggs (chocolate egg with a caramel filling). Launched in 1994.[3]
Mini Caramel Eggs (bite-sized Caramel Eggs)
Chocolate Creme Eggs (chocolate fondant filling)
Orange Creme Eggs (Creme Eggs with a hint of orange flavour)
'Berry' Creme Eggs (magenta wrapper and pink fondant, sold circa 1997 in Australia)
Mint Creme Eggs (green "yolk" and mint flavour chocolate)
Dairy Milk with Creme Egg bars
Creme Egg Fondant in a Narrow Cardboard Tube (limited edition)
Creme Egg ice cream with a fondant sauce in milk chocolate
Dream Eggs (New Zealand). White chocolate with white chocolate fondant filling. Discontinued in 2010.[2]
Cadbury McFlurry (British, Irish and Canadian McDonald's only) McFlurry soft serve mix with Creme Egg & chocolate filling.
Creme Egg Twisted (Britain, Ireland, Australia and Canada) Available all year round. It was introduced to Australia in 2010 but was quickly discontinued.
Holiday Ornament Creme Egg
Mad About Chocolate Egg (Australia and New Zealand). Purple wrapper, milk chocolate with chocolate fudge filling. Discontinued in 2010.[2]
Peppermint Egg (New Zealand). Discontinued in 2010.[2]
Jaffa Egg (New Zealand) Dark chocolate with orange filling
Marble Egg (New Zealand) Dairy Milk and Dream Chocolate swirled together
Screme Eggs, for Halloween market. White and green fondant filling with the same taste as the standard Creme Egg.
Giant Creme Eggs, a thick chocolate shell with white and caramel fondant filling. Manufactured in North America. Discontinued in 2006.

I'm totally buying these if I see them which I never have but I'm totally going to search everywhere.

I wish they still made the "Giant Creme Eggs," cause I'm interested.

BTW, I also read that the ones sold in the UK are bigger (i.e. the original) and they are 180 calories? Who will mail me some?

<----Come on, look how cute I am.
