Cadbury’s Creme Egg is one of the most iconic British sweets and is loved by many. It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like chocolate, and the fact that it’s in the form of a tiny adorable egg just adds to the fun of having a sweet treat. The humble chocolate egg has been around for decades and has now become an iconic sweet.
When biting into a Cadbury’s Creme Egg, you get the taste of solid chocolate along with a thick filling inside which makes for a delicious surprise. The gooey yellow and white filling inside the egg is what sets it apart from other chocolates. Although Cadbury’s Creme Egg is a popular sweet, many people are still not aware of what the filling is made of.
Recently, a TikToker who posts under the username @abbeythefoodscientist revealed to her audience what the filling inside Cadbury’s Creme Egg is, by dissecting the egg in a video. The video shows the process of peeling open a Cadbury’s Creme Egg from its wrapper and then cutting it in half to reveal the sticky and gooey filling inside.
The TikToker revealed that the filling inside the Cadbury’s Creme Egg is nothing other than fondant. Fondant is a mixture of sugar, corn syrup, and water, which creates the perfect texture for the filling inside the chocolate egg. The video creator writes in her caption that the inside of the egg is “a mixture of sugar, corn syrup, and water or what’s called fondant.”
The revelation was met with surprise by many who had expected the filling of the sweet to be something else altogether. One commenter said, “I always thought the inside was colored caramel,” while another person gleefully wrote, “okay, I want to go make a massive bowl of it now I know what it is.”
However, one person commented that the filling was actually ‘icing.’ This was addressed by another post, which replied, “Yh but it has actual egg so it’s likely to be nougat.” This just goes to show that people have different opinions and expectations when it comes to the filling of the Cadbury’s Creme Egg.
In conclusion, Cadbury’s Creme Egg is a sweet that has been around for decades and is loved by many. The gooey filling inside the chocolate egg is what sets it apart from other chocolates. The recent revelation by TikToker @abbeythefoodscientist that the filling is fondant was met with surprise and different reactions by many. Whether you love it or not, Cadbury’s Creme Egg remains an iconic British sweet.
