Theres nothing quite like it, is there?
Of all the potential treats and snacks on this island, few set the pulse racing quite like the humble Creme Egg.
Improving the magic formula is like trying to improve on perfection, an impossibility. Right?
Wrong, as it turns out. Its just been announced that Oreo Creme eggs are about to hit the shelves as of this coming January. That means Oreo biscuit stuffed into the classic filling. Thatll do it.
Its not technically the first time, with last Easter bearing witness to the mini egg version. But it does mark the dawn of the full sized Oreo Eggs.
Youll be able to grab it in the shop until April, which is a fairly solid four months of indulgence.
Theres even an argument to be made for its health properties, as it clocks in at 175 calories, two less than the regular old Creme Egg which contains 177. Each one will set you back a cool 58p. Logistically speaking, Oreo Eggs have the same milk chocolate shell as a normal Creme Egg, though the inside consists of a white cream filling with shards of biscuit- which does sound undeniably decent. Its also a triumph of people power, according to Cadbury brand manager, Aislinn Campbell.
We are constantly listening to what our customers want and we know fans went wild last year when they heard about the Oreo Egg, she said. So for Easter 2019, we are bringing this to the UK and we cannot wait for everyone to try it. Were sure the feeling is mutual.
