Cadbury Creme Egg - Official website
A Cadbury Creme Egg is a brand of chocolate manufactured inside-and-out to look like an egg. The "egg" has a milk chocolate "shell", with a white and yellow fondant filling designed to resemble the yolk and white of an egg. Creme Eggs are the best selling confectionery item between New Year's Day and Easter in the UK, with annual sales in excess of 200 million items and a brand value of approximately ?45 million.[1]
It is produced by Cadbury plc in the United Kingdom, and under license by The Hershey Company in the United States. The eggs are manufactured at the Bournville factory in Birmingham at the rate of 1.5 million per day, and also at other Cadbury factories in countries such as New Zealand.
While filled eggs were first manufactured by the Cadbury Brothers in 1923, the Creme Egg in its current form was introduced in 1971.

Product specification
Creme eggs are usually sold individually, but are also available in packets of three, four, six, and twelve, and in boxes of eight, fifteen, twenty-four and forty-eight. The foil wrapping of the eggs was traditionally red, yellow and blue in color in the United Kingdom and Ireland, though purple replaced blue early in the 21st century. In the United States, some green is incorporated into the design, which previously featured the product's mascothe Creme Egg Chick.

When first introduced in Britain, the original Cadbury Creme Egg weighed 40 grams (1.4 oz) and contained 171.6 Calories.[1] Cadbury Creme Eggs sold in the UK and Canada have remained at this size, but those sold by Hershey's in the United States have decreased in size since their introduction - before 2006 they are listed with a weight of 39 grams,[2] while today they are listed at 34 grams.
During an interview on the April 4th, 2007 episode of Late Night with Conan O' Brien, actor B. J. Novak drew attention to the fact that American market Cadbury Creme Eggs have decreased in size from previous years, despite the claim on the Cadbury's website FAQ that the eggs were not getting smaller, but rather, "you've just grown up!"[1] The site has since been updated to clarify that only American eggs have altered in size.[1]

Manufacture
Cadbury Creme Egg is manufactured by making a chocolate shell in a half-egg shaped mold, which is then filled with white fondant and a dab of yellow fondant to simulate the yolk. Two mold halves are closed very quickly and cooled to allow the chocolate to set. When the molds are opened, the eggs fall onto a conveyor which transports them, first to the foiling machines and then to the finished packing.

Advertising
In recent times, the creme egg has been marketed in the UK and Ireland with the question "How do you eat yours?" and in Australia with the slogan "Don't get caught with egg on your face". Australia has also used a variation of the UK question, using the slogan "How do you do it?" Over the years, there have been several major Cadbury's Creme Egg campaigns.
