Cadbury Creme Egg (Whole) on Black Background
The Cadbury's Creme Egg was an invention of the British chocolatier Fry's in 1963, before being renamed by Cadbury in 1971. It has a thick chocolate shell containing very sweet white and yellow filling that mimics the albumen and yolk of a soft boiled egg. In the UK, it is the best-selling confectionery item between New Year's Day and Easter with annual sales in excess of 200 million and a brand value of £55 million. They are sold globally, produced by Cadbury in the UK, by Hershey's in the US and by Cadbury Adams in Canada. A YouGov poll saw the Creme Egg ranked as the most famous confectionery in the UK.
