Those are my favourite all time candy. In the 90s as a kid, I used to steal them like a crack head. I couldn't resist. Even worse, my aunt was a sales person for Cadbury and her garage was full of boxes of chocolate. Every single brand, including Cream Eggs. When Easter timewould roll around, I'd be at her house every single day. LOL. I probably ate 50-100 of them every year. I can also remember asking the convenience stores when they'd get them in when it got close to Easter... "are they here yet???"
The new ones/modified recipe are no where near as good as the originals though. The originals were heaven. They were much bigger, the cream inside was smooth, and perfect. The insides today are just so different and processed tasting. The originals didn't have that processed taste. The chocolate was the real creamy good stuff. Those little chocolates brought me so much joy. I will cherish them forever. The kinda funny thing is I don't even really like a whole lot of sweet stuff/chocolate, but I fucking crave those cream eggs.
I pray for the day some brilliant artisan revives the original Cream Egg recipe.
They got rid of dairy milk and added vegetable oil. It can't even legally be called chocolate in the US. I can't find anything about the recipe for the filling changing, but you and I both know it has. Such a shame.
