Cadbury's Cream Eggs

These are far nicer than any other type of egg, and you don't need to know how to store them, because as they are sweets they don't last long at all as they get eaten. There is one question to be asked about them though... How do you eat yours?

I bite the tops off and scoop out the innards with my tongue. This is fairly disgusting and explains why I only eat them in private.

Since this is really about the storage of eggs, shouldn't we discuss how to store Creme Eggs? For example, can you store them using Thermostabilisation? What about hard boiling? These are important questions.

Well seeing how the "shell" of a Cadbury's Cream egg is chocolate, anything involving heat may not be the best way to go about things as you would most likely be left with a sticky puddle that does not resemble an egg at all! fish

So, either I'm really stupid, or I was making a joke. You clearly think the former while I was under the impression it was the latter. We can agree to differ on this.

This handbags at dawn type stuff is all well and good, but I think we are losing the plot here. You see, there is no need to even consider the storage of a creme egg because they rarely last very long around me before they are eaten (technique desciribed above)

Cadbury's Cream Eggs do need preserving - preserving from relatives who scoff the lot. Best method is to freeze them for at least 2 hours. Put them on display before visitors arrive - possibly in a small fruit bowl. This tempts the visitors to snaffle one but of course they are impossible to eat especially by elderley relatives with false teeth.
The effect is so disconcerting that most egg snafflers are cured for life - next time they come round it is safe to leave the normal temperature eggs on display as the visitors will not want to repeat the experience.
Your kudos is enhanced by taking one of the eggs and eating it whole, in one bite and in front of the returned visitors, without any pain or loss of teeth at all.

Make sure they're not frozen when you do the last part winkeye

I eat mine by gnawing a hole at each end, then sucking the innards out of one hole. A bit like blowing an egg shell, but the other way round.

I should think that the Oiling method works well with Creme Eggs. Nobody's going to try unwrapping an oiled egg winkeye


What about Mini Eggs? Can't forget them. I want to know how to preserve them - I eat them way too fast.
