Cadbury Creme Eggs just haven't had the same appeal to me since they took the adorable clucking bunny out of their ad campaign. Something about that bunny just made me want to eat a whole, sugary egg. In all probability, age had something to do with it as well. I no longer want to scarf down a large Cadbury Creme Egg when given the opportunity because it almost makes my teeth hurt, though I do enjoy a bite of one every now and again. Leave it to the company to come to my rescue. Their Mini Creme Eggs are just the right size - about 3/4-inch long - to eat in a bite or two. They still have the same sugary fondant filling with the trademark orange "yolk" in the center, but the chocolate-to-filling ratio is much higher than in the larger eggs. The milky chocolate even manages to temper the sweetness just enough to allow me to to indulge in one or two at a time. Cadbury Mini Creme Eggs are definitely a great Easter treat. Maybe I'll reconsider the larger eggs if they bring back that bunny!

Up here in Canada, there's a commercial with a young couple searching through a field full of bunnies, all of whom make the noise of another animal (horse, dog, etc.) until they find the one who clucks like a chicken. Is this ad not on in the US?

I haven't seen that ad in the U.S., Liz. "Cadbury" is based in England, I believe, so that COULD be why Canada is getting that ad while we may not be? lol, and Nicole you are a wimp(and I mean that nicely) and probably shouldn't even be doing a chocolate type candy review! What chocolate lover can't eat a large Cadbury creme egg!?!?!? SHEESH!! The cadbury creme aggs are the best dern sweet ever made in my opinion, lol. I love them and want to bux crates of them every year and then buy a freezer just to store them so I will have them year round!! Sadly, my waistline says NO, to that. =
