    cadbury egg's!

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I can;t remember where I read it today, but someone was going off onthe cadbury egg's and how good they are. Well I was at the store and walked past the holiday candy section and saw them. They were on sale for $1.88 so i thought ok lets see what all the fuss is. I thought "Really, can these be that special?"
    Got in the car and broke them open. I decided to just let it melt in my mouth so i could get a real sence of the texture and tast. The shell was nice, not to much, not over powering. Next came the chocolate. OMG! what a great flavor. Somehow different. Not waxy like some of those chocolates can be. it was a nice surprise! I wish I hadn't bought them now. Cause I am going to want more and will have to stock up now.

    Yep Cadbury chocolate is yummy. Sorry to say but most of the chocolate you can get here in the USA at the supermarket sucks big time. I get my family to send me chocolate from home. My mum just arrived from Aust a few days ago and has replenished our supply thank goodness.

    Oh yeah...

    I can't have those in the house - I eat the whole *$&# package of them.

    Though I do have a new addition: maple flavored marshmellow fluff dipped in dark chocolate - I don't think they're *quite* as bad as the cadbury eggs and they are YUMMY

    Yep - I ride to eat

    Hey Trek - Just saw your reply...

    I live within biking distance of a Southern Season (www.southernseason.com) which carries all manner of imported choclates. I'm set!! This is also the place that has the maple cream eggs
    Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...

    did you get tim tams? It is funny it reminds me of my trips to down under. That is exactly what is. It triggered a memory and it was having easter in sydney. Hot cross buns! We have an english store in the next town over if you need anything let me know they have a bunch of stuff. No tim tams though.

    Yes, the Cadbury mini eggs are stashed in my armoire, along with the other Easter candy. There might be some left for Easter. We'll see.

    I love, love, love Cadbury eggs. I wait for them every year. I actually took a handful to work and made everyone try them so they would know I wasn't insane..... (I got all excited when I remembered it was Easter candy time)! I had to go find my stash after first reading this post too!

    A few years ago, the dollar store had these Cadbury eggs with peanut butter. Sooooo good! I wish I could find those again. The combo of good chocolate with pb was devine!

    I find that health food stores often have some better chocolate than grocery stores for the rest of the year.

    I've got the whole bag sitting here by the computer! With the storms raging outside - this could be a long night. Perfect excuse to eat oh so good chocolate and talk with oh so nice people

    I am a chocolate snob. But, good chocolate can be found at the grocery store. Lindt and Toblerone are very good. Dove is not bad. Guittard Milk Chocolate chips are good.

    True enough. Dove, yes - and quite yummy. Lindt and Guittard are not readily available here in the MS Delta. I have found Lindt on occasion and I used to be able to buy Ghiradelli, but never Guittard. I love those Lindt truffles - ooh those are good. I can still find Ghiradelli for baking, most of the time (which is a MAJOR hobby of mine). I really need to move.
