Advantages: Shape is good for eating in public

Disadvantages: Does not allow me to lick out the centre as nicely

Ok now I love Cadbury Cream Eggs, and when the Bar came out I thought I would try it, just to see whether it was as nice as the original. Therefore here is my feedback after my testing:

Taste:

Now the taste of the Bar is the same as the creme egg. It still has the nice taste or outer chocolate with the creamy center, so loved and used to from the Egg. Therefore when you look at the taste of the Bar, it matches the egg as before and passes the taste test.

Shape:

Now when considering the shape of the Bar I must admit that it is a little more handy then the old fashioned egg. It is easy to carry, does not roll off your desk when you put it down and allows you to eat some of it later if you want to. However being a conservative type of guy, I must admit that I do not like the Bar as much as the Egg.

The Egg is lovely, allowing you to eat it in so many different ways (my favourite being to bite off the head and then lick out the insides) which the Bar does not really allow you to do.
Yes it has benefits, but personally would buy the egg over the Bar anytime. Therefore when it comes to shape, it fails for me.

Price:

I did not notice much of a price difference between the bar or egg, however this does depend on the quantities you buy. Personally I recommend a 3 pack of the egg as your first choice. However by price it is square even.

Size:
The size of the bar is about right for a quick snack, same as the egg was, but still leaves you wanting much much more, as any snack should do. I am sure that true chocaholics will be wanting larger size bars at some point, but for me this was fine.
Again size makes it square even still between the egg and the bar.

All in all I would say that the Cadbury Cream Egg bar is OK and has its benefits when eating it in public (less of the hassle of getting into the egg) and has it uses. However personally I would stick with the egg every time.

Summary: The Bar is ok, but would allows buy the egg as first choice.
