I came across these familiar - but also unfamiliar - items in the Giant supermarket today. In the US 'Cadbury's' is known as 'Cadbury' and the chocolate is made under license by Hershey - makers of the famous but (in my view) detestable 'Hershey's Kisses'.
In the UK I believe that there has been some upset as Kraft, the new owners of Cadbury's revealed that creme eggs were no longer to be made from Cadbury's Dairy Milk but rather a generic milk chocolate. I think that this decision has now been reversed.
In the US, creme eggs have never been made with Cadbury's Dairy Milk as that is not available here - in fact the recipe for it precludes it being called chocolate in the US as it contains vegetable oil.
We shall test the Cadbury creme egg, US style, in due course..
Two eggs that we probably won't try are these - as recently featured in The Independent. On sale in the UK for Easter.. I have tasted Marmite chocolate and so can imagine that egg but I am at a loss when trying to imagine what Pot Noodle flavoured chocolate would taste like!
The marmite eggs were tested on TV yesterday and the opinions differed. Some found them quite salty but not much of a marmite taste.
