The chocolate is so sweet it is sort of acidic and burns my mouth.

The used to be made of lovely creamy chocolate.

Habanero · 29/03/2018 17:38

The chocolate is horrid and waxy. The filling is a mixture of hard and oily. Yuck. Used to be brilliant

GladAllOver · 29/03/2018 17:42

All Cadbury chocolate is like that now.

DunkandEgg · 29/03/2018 17:43

Nah, not for me.
I barely eat Cadbury these days. I actually prefer to have a packet of crisps!

SilentBob · 29/03/2018 17:43

I used to be a fan when I was wee but no longer.

I bung loads of them in brownies at work (the chocolate cakes, not the small children!) and they fly out so someone somewhere must still like them (or maybe they just like any old brownie!)

goose1964 · 29/03/2018 18:24

I no longer buy them but they're tiny now more like a bantam egg than a hen's egg

Leeds2 · 29/03/2018 19:02

I had some creme egg ice cream today. It was lovely!

Bippitybopityboo · 29/03/2018 19:05

I think my baby may come out looking like one. Blush

Need to stock up for after the easter period!

Drainedandconfused · 29/03/2018 19:06

I've eaten 3 today and the chocolate actually tasted like Cadburys, they were heavenly.

ReinettePompadour · 29/03/2018 19:07

Theyre awful. YANBU. Grin

MargotLovedTom1 · 29/03/2018 19:08

They've ALWAYS been little ovoid balls of claggy, sickly shittiness.

DairyisClosed · 29/03/2018 19:11

I had one as a child. Scarred for life by how vile it was. Bit lots of people seem to like it so I guess it must be an acquired taste.

FleagleBingoDrooperSnork · 29/03/2018 19:14

It’s a no from me! They were and always will be far too sweet and claggy.

MsJudgemental · 29/03/2018 19:15

Haven’t had one this year but, while I loved most of them, there was always the one or two which were too thick and granulated inside and far too sweet. The filling should be runny or they’re off.

LiteraryDevil · 29/03/2018 20:07

I have to restrict myself to 3 a day. It's a breastfeeding thing. Mini eggs are definitely not as good this year, the shells are different. As a general rule Cadbury's needs to go back to the old chocolate recipe.

LiteraryDevil · 29/03/2018 20:09

And they have to be cold out of the fridge as does any chocolate.

FlirtyRomanticToast · 29/03/2018 20:09

I miss Mars eggs, they were delicious Star

Slightlyperturbedowlagain · 29/03/2018 20:11

They used to be nicer, but needs must Wink Everywhere round here has totally sold out though.

TheCatFromOuterSpace · 29/03/2018 20:12

Yabu. Creme eggs are my favourite. I admit I have the taste buds of a small child though. I also like to lick the icing off cake.

fishybits · 29/03/2018 20:13

Creme eggs and mini eggs now taste funny. They have messed with everything and I'm not buying Cadbury's again.

LiteraryDevil · 29/03/2018 20:13

For all those worried about no more creme eggs after Easter, you can buy boxes of 24/48 online. That's what my friend does.

Bunchofdaffodils · 29/03/2018 20:29

Gasp Mars eggs, id forgotten all about them! Are they no longer available then? I’m glad to say I still love crime eggs despite the choc recipe change.

austenozzy · 29/03/2018 20:33

Not U. Rank.

toriatoriatoria · 29/03/2018 21:41

No, they are horrible. I'm all about the Cadbury Caramel egg instead.

blaaake · 29/03/2018 22:55

YABU! They're gorgeous; I can't have loads at once like I used to but in moderation they're the best. Also the Creme egg McFlurry is divine!
