What happened to Cadbury eggs?
Back in 2015, Cadbury products, including the iconic Creme Egg, were banned from being imported into the United States. It all started when Hershey Chocolate Corporation filed a lawsuit alleging that Cadbury copied an already existing Hershey chocolate egg recipe of theirs.
Can I still buy Cadbury eggs?
Cadbury Creme Eggs are banned in the US, but here’s why you can still buy them. British candy aficionados may remember the frigid January of 2015, when a cold war between British Cadbury importers and the American Hershey Company ended with the banning of the sale of U.K.-created Cadbury candies in the United States.
Do Cadbury eggs have eggs in them?
Sugar, MILK, glucose syrup, cocoa butter, invert sugar syrup, dried whey (from MILK), cocoa mass, vegetable fats (palm, shea), emulsifier (E442), dried EGG white, flavourings, colour (paprika extract).
What is the inside of a Cadbury’s Creme Egg?
The particular magic of the Cadbury creme egg is that the chocolate shell houses a gooey, runny “yolk” and “albumen.” But while there are some real egg whites involved, the creme filling is really just fondant (aka, lots of sugar) dyed with food coloring to look like the insides of an egg.
Why are Cadbury eggs so good?
Thanks to some gastronomically-driven geometry, we know that surface area increases with the radius squared, whereas volume increases with the radius cubed. So not only does each egg give you more chocolate, but it also has a lower candy shell-to-chocolate ratio.
What country has the best chocolate?

Why are creme eggs so disgusting?
For one thing, they’re way too sweet. The whole point of chocolate is sweetness tempered with richness. The Creme Egg is filled with a paste so eye-wateringly saccharine that your teeth virtually squeak when biting into it. Secondly, the chocolate-to-filling ratio is all wrong.
