    So it's creme egg season again, and although I've celebrated by eating 2 in one go already, I can't help feel a little let down.
    They released the Cadbury Screme Egg for Halloween and I think it took away from the waiting for Easter for them to come about..

    Also, was just wondering has anyone ever had the different flavoured Creme Eggs they do in the States or Aus?!

    Would love to try the orange flavoured one.. Sounds amazing.

    Nah, doesn't sound right. Malteser bunnies are lovely, don't get me wrong. I'm a huge fan. But it will forever be named Creme Egg season :)

    New Aero lamb looks cute enough. Got one for the other half yesterday. Yet to get back to me on how it was though!

    I don't get why everyone loves Creme eggs so much! The chocolate is cheap and the insides are just pure sugar.

    This offer was not on in the shop, however it can be ordered online and when I added 2 to the basket it verified the offer and only charged €2.

    I'd dreamt of that too (I love pimp that snack btw, spent ages trawling through it before lol) -- however you'd probably just be horrrrribly sick.

    Yeah, too much fondant for my liking, you need the chocolate with it, if I made one I would chop or liquidise up the whole cream eggs and put the mix in the egg, so you have chocolate throughout, maybe even add in extra chocolate.

    They should make ones just a big bigger, like the size of kinder eggs.

    Agreeeed! though we'd all swear they were bigger when we were younger, I debate the 'but you probably got bigger' as I've been the same size since I was mid teens! lol.

    I actually got the mini creme eggs this year, don't often bother, but I found there was just the perfect amount of chocolate & fondant. Last time I'd a creme egg it seemed an imbalance.

    They're making everything smaller these days, so I wouldn't be surprised!

    Read in the papers today that Dairy Milk bars have gotten smaller, same price though if not a price hike!

    Don't be silly. Fat is good for you. In fact, last night I decided that combining doughnuts and Creme Eggs is the way to go. Replace the jam with a Creme Egg. I'm not a fan of Creme Eggs though so I might not get to do it.

    But a creme egg has less calories than a can of coke/ banana and an apple/ packet of crisps/ half bag of Mcdonalds chips/ 2 sausages

    THE LIST COULD GO ON!

    Small things in moderation, don't deny yourself the sole reason Easter is awesome over petty calories!

    Jesus could have used a creme egg or two, that man was scrawny. :pac:

    It even has this on wikipedia, the conan o brien show in the US had a lad on, they did get smaller in the US, but have been the same size here. How I already knew myself is since my mother used to put them in egg cups on easter sunday at breakfast, and they had to be stuffed with tissue as the eggcup was far too big.

    Yes, there are loads of different sizes of bars these days, mulitpack ones are usually 45-50g these days, which is my preferred size. There is a huge imbalance between multipack and single bars now so most people get multipack ones, I always demolish the mulitpacks though. Only place I buy single bars is at the checkout in lidl, a lidl twix is only 29c I think, and very nice. I can't bring myself to pay 90cent for a bar when 5 are only €2 -2.50

    You make a fine point!

    Could you be swayed with a Lindt Lindor Egg?

    Those things should be ILLEGAL.. I'm not even going to have one this year..

    I just won't be able to control myself :eek:
