Cadbury Screame Egg

Hi everyone, Spire here with the obligatory Halloween candy posting ^_^

Around Halloween, we do get a lot of imported candies for the holiday, though we don't exactly celebrate it in it's essence. As usual I went hunting around but since I was on a budget I only picked up a couple of items as opposed to the bigger range of stuff I get to try year after year. Here's the rather famous Cadbury Screme egg. It was going for RM 5.99 a piece (yikes!) but this is a very popular treat (so I hear) so I had to give it a go.

This is what it looks like after you peel off the crinkly metal shell. Because I was worried that it would get too melty to handle due to the hot weather, I had popped it in the fridge for an hour before cracking it open.

Wrapper off, it looks pretty much the same as any regular Cadbury creme egg.

When you get inside however is where you get the fun green festive 'goo' that makes this quite a Halloween treat. The taste and consistency is the same as any regular old Creme egg but it's a nice tie in to the holiday.

As far as the taste goes, you can't go wrong with the chocolate and the filling while tasty, I find it crazy sweet. Like I'll go into a diabetic coma level of sweet. It looks cool as hell though.

Spire sez: It's really cool that you get greenish goo spilling out of it but I have to say it was entirely too sweet for me to eat in one sitting. It wasn't too bad cold (because I'm a freak who likes cold chocolate) but I think I'll stick to just having this twice a year at Easter and at Halloween ^^;
