Advantages: Great taste.
Disadvantages: Lack of availability.
Possibly one of the most annoying products out there simply for the reason that it is only available around the Easter and Christmas period!!!
Cadbury's mini eggs were first introduced back in 1967 and has been produced in a number of variations, the most recent being 'Micro Mini Eggs' which are an even smaller version. The egg itself is a miniature egg shaped piece of Cadbury's milk chocolate coated in a hard sugary shell in varying colours. It is claimed tha the yellow eggs have a distinctive flavour, but I am yet to discern it.
I think these things are awesome. A family sharing size bag of 200 grams worth of eggs is easily eaten in one sitting - you will keep noticing to your horror that whilst your mouth has about 2 or 3 eggs nestling inside, your hand is already in the bag searching for your stomach's next victim. There are a few ways to combat this - firstly put an egg in your mouth and simply let it melt, the taste is unbelievable as the melting inner chocolate slowly seeps out of the disintegrating shell. Secondly - chop off your hands.
The eggs, as mentioned, are terribly addictive. From the immediate satisfying 'crunch' to the well known tried and tested cadbury's chocolate, this confectionary item is an utter delight.
Per 12 pieces, mini eggs will provide 190 calories (ouch!) as well as 8 grams of fat. I'm sorry for the bad news, but I don't to become culpable for Britain's increasing obesity crisis!
A great confectionary item that's only downfall is the fact you can't buy it whenever you want throughout the year.
Summary: Great seasonal chocolate.
