How many crème eggs do you think you could manage in one go?

Seeing as Easter is coming up and they’re everywhere again

I could nail loads of the white ones

They are unpleasant

roarrfeckingroar · 06/03/2024 18:47

Three comfortably. Ten if trying.

I think they’re gross since they changed the recipe but I am addicted to caramel eggs - they are far superior. And unfortunately harder to find than creme eggs!

Terfosaurus · 06/03/2024 18:49

Half if I had to.

The Lindor ones in blue foil otoh. Yum.

None, they are just disgusting :(

This!

LlynTegid · 06/03/2024 18:51

Probably only three. Haven't had one so far this year.

NahNeedsGarlic · 06/03/2024 18:51

Four maybe? But I’d probably regret it.

This. They're vile. I'm not a chocolate fan at all but quite liked Cadbury but since they sold out, their chocolate tastes horrible.

Really don't get chocolate at all. I'm a cheese and wine fan

Elecrricmaracas · 06/03/2024 18:52

One because they're sickly af. Other chocolate- tons

Five in an emergency but I’d probably be sick afterwards

I like the sound of the kind of emergency that would require eating creme eggs

I did ten once. A friend challenged me.

Wasn’t much of a challenge, I was once 23 stone and it was any excuse to eat crap. It was no coincidence that I was morbidly obese.

Ten was all we had, could’ve smashed a few more, it was nothing. Went to Pizza Hut after as well.

SaggyCushionCover · 06/03/2024 18:54

I won the 1984 6th form challenge with 14 and they were much bigger then

I used to wish for exactly the same thing. Still do tbh. I could easily eat 6 and probably more. Perhaps we should all have a go.

I didn't think I was alone in this 😁

Octopus45 · 06/03/2024 19:03

@Ifulikepinacoladas I'm another who used to wish for an Easter egg sized cream egg, in fact I still do. The most I've ever eaten in one go is 3 I think, think I could probably manage 6. I had a white one this morning, it was lush. I just asked my teenage Son (with hollow legs) how many he could eat and he told me he could eat 15.

florenceandthemac · 06/03/2024 19:07

3 at least

Minikievs · 06/03/2024 19:10

Probably 4. Although it would make financial sense if you're buying 4, to just buy a box of 5. So I'd probably eat all 5 rather than leaving one in the box to be lonely.

That is an EGGCELLENT claim to fame (boom boom)

Roselilly36 · 06/03/2024 19:11

They are awful, I used to love them, I don’t buy them now.

AuntieMarys · 06/03/2024 19:12

I once ate 6 in 1980. Never touched one since

TheFancyPoet · 06/03/2024 19:12

I honestly, bear just biting the edge of one. I hate the cream inside

WhateverMate · 06/03/2024 19:12

None nowadays.

I'm old enough to remember when they were much bigger, the chocolate was so thick you thought you were going to break your teeth on the first bite, and when you tipped them sideways the lovely gooey filling would flow out.

I wish I'd never experienced such decadence, as it's literally ruined my life going forward 😒🥚

MrsMitford3 · 06/03/2024 19:12

None for me-find them so sickly.

I am much more of a savoury person!

JamSandle · 06/03/2024 19:13

A disturbing amount. I dont seem to get the sickly sweet ick normal people do.

defi · 06/03/2024 19:14

This is Mumsnet, half a crème egg and they'll be stuffed for weeks

AliceMcK · 06/03/2024 19:14

I had 2 Easter babies, at the height of my cream egg craving I went through dozens in a day. I’m surprised I didn’t pop out some eggs during labour.
