RANDOM TIDBITS

Cadbury introduced its first cream-filled egg in 1923, but the brand we know today was not launched until 1971.

***

In 1975, the Cadbury Creme Egg was advertised for the first time on television. A boy asks a shopkeeper for ‘600 Cadbury Creme Eggs please’.

***

The egg is made by pouring liquid chocolate into a half-egg shaped mold, which is then filled with white fondant and then a dab of yellow fondant to simulate the yolk. The two mold halves are closed very quickly and cooled to allow the chocolate to set.

***

The Cadbury Creme Egg plant at Bournville UK can produce more than 1.5 million eggs per day. In the UK, over 200 million cream eggs are sold annually, three for every person in the UK.

***

The original advertising for the treat featured the tagline "How do you eat yours?", based on the fact that there are so many different ways to enjoy the egg.

***

In 2008, the new 'Here Today, Goo Tomorrow' campaign was launched, showcasing creme eggs on amusing missions to release their Goo.
