The Creme de la [Cadbury] Creme Egg

The season is a little off on this one, since we usually save our posts about giant Cadbury Creme Eggs for the weeks just before Easter, but the Creme de la Creme Egg that popped up on Pimp That Snack this month just can't wait that long. The giant Cadbury egg is simply the most impressive candy hack that we've seen - and the users of PTS clearly agree, since it's already the top-rated pimp on the site. Not only is it huge in size, but the level of detail that went in to its construction is hugely impressive. The milk chocolate candy shell was built up in layers to the proper thickness necessary to hold in the filling and the shell was carefully engraved with the same star design that is found on the standard eggs. Multiple batches of fondant were prepared before the gooey white center with a dyed yellow fondant "yolk" was poured into the prepared molds and sealed in. The "pimpers" even made a look-alike giant wrapper using acrylic paints on aluminum foil!

By weight, the jumbo chocolate is 56 times larger than the original. It has approximately 10,000 calories and probably contains enough sugar to make your head spin for a month.

real thing too much. Seeing runny yolks nestled in
rich chocolate makes me queezy. Yes, I realize it's
all psychological; tell that to my stomach.
