I thought that Cadbury creme eggs were one of the great miracles of manufacturing. How did they manage that luscious, luxurious combination of thick chocolate egg holding the yummiest, runniest creme complete with yellow “yolk” in the center?
Ambrosial. Miraculous.
But then I grew up and have developed a serious addiction to their mini eggs in the Royal Dark chocolate. A really frustrating addiction, as they get harder to find every year. Kcruella and I send each other plaintive texts starting in February, “Have you seen any?” – whining when there’s a Cadbury display…and they’re all that nasty milk chocolate.
If one of us spots any in either Florida or New Jersey, we jet off a “SCORE!!” to the other, so she can try to find bags to hoard. If she can’t, we do what besties do and send a care package boxload. Then we try to make them last as long as possible.
We’ve been Schlitz outta…
