Cadbury Mini Eggs are milk chocolate egg-shaped candies coated in a sugar shell. In the United States this product is manufactured by The Hershey Company of Hershey, Pennsylvania. Each egg is about 3/4 inch long and about 1/2 inch wide at its base. The chocolate inside each egg has a buttery and slightly salty taste to it which makes eating a reasonable number of the eggs pretty much impossible.

The sugar shells are in a variety of pastel colors, with tiny purple speckles on the eggs to give them a robin’s egg appearance. If your hands are warm at all the sugar shell will very quickly dissolve in your hand, so be prepared to lick some sugar off your palm if you decide to hold onto them for any length of time. (Extra treat!)

Cadbury Mini Eggs are only sold during the Western Easter holiday, so it’s a good idea to stock up as soon as you see them in stores. If you participate in Lent and choose to give up chocolate just remember that Sundays are your feast days so you can totally eat these eggs on Sundays! Yay, you!

An ice-cold Coke goes best with this chocolate. (See? We’re soda neutral here!)

Risky Business is the perfect movie to watch while you snack on this treat. It’s always fun to bite into these eggs while you watch Joel dive through the air to catch his mom’s Fabergé egg!
