    I'm 24 and my mam got me a cadbury's egg like those russian dolls with a smaller one inside and 2 truffle eggs in that :D
    Oh and her mother (in her 70's) got her (40's) a malteaser one!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 566 ✭✭✭Mollywolly


    A big Lily O'Briens one to be shared with hubby. He's keeping it in the car so that I can't get at it till Sunday :(


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 7,396 Mod ✭✭✭✭**Timbuk2**


    Oh by the way... does anybody put their easter eggs in the freezer before eating them? I used to do this all the time when I was a kid.. and still do sometimes.. it makes the easter egg nicer, in my opinion


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,686 ✭✭✭EdgarAllenPoo


    Ah I'm not too bothered with it this year, always thought buying the eggs was uneconomical for the amount of chocolate you get for your money. Always bought the family fancy ones that just get left sitting around for weeks.

    I'm getting a Celebrations one - it's huuuuge!
    I also think I'm getting a small one and one from 'The Easter Bunny'!

    Whoohooo!!! JACKPOT!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,241 ✭✭✭Sanjuro


    I'm getting one of those Lindt chocolate rabbits. My ma gets me one every year without fail. They're remarkably good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 400 ✭✭tagoona


    I stopped getting easter eggs about 10 years ago.

    But now the kids get them, and you have to help :D
    I forgot how nice buttons eggs are.

    You've just got a very very odd family then. That would never happen in my house.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 400 ✭✭tagoona


    And oh yea, definitely has to be from the freezer with a nice glass of cold milk.

    As refreshment after playing easter egg rugby!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,686 ✭✭✭EdgarAllenPoo


    Anyone every have a Squegg? I miss the novelty of that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 231 ✭✭mandysmithers

    I agree. My egg gets eaten in record time. I definitely think that the chocolate in the egg is nicer. I'm sure it's the same stuff, but somehow it tastes different!

    And for those people who feel they're too 'old' for an Easter egg....you're NEVER too old!!

    I sent two whispa eggs(he loves whispas)to my son working in Iraq and just got a txt from him to say they just arrived,along with boxof barrys tea and news papers from sun,mon and tue after the grand slam.So he is sitting eating his eggs with a cup of barrys tea and the newspapers,he is in heaven!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,750 ✭✭✭liah


    Snickers, Yorkie, and Malteser eggs seem to have appeared in the cupboard.

    nobody mentioned Creme Eggs yet ??
    Love them, me.......


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Motoring & Transport Moderators Posts: 7,396 Mod ✭✭✭✭**Timbuk2**


    Oh yes.. cream eggs (or creme eggs?)

    I once saw an easter-egg sized creme egg (complete with that white goo inside.. whatever the name of it is!) on eBay for about $200. The person who made it purchased a lot of small creme eggs and combined them! I'd say you'd be pretty sick (and sticky :eek:) after eating/slurping that!

    I can't find a link but you get the drift


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 704 ✭✭✭Lobelia Overhill


    I bought myself a Maltesers egg this morning


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,977 ✭✭✭Soby

    I won an enormous Creme Egg Easte egg in a raffle yesterday...imagine if it was full of all that stuff:o sssshlurp!! I got an email the other day with instructions on how to make your own big one. You've to order an egg mould from ebay, melt loads of chocolate, then ingredients for the fondant....down to painting the wrapper identical to the original. It looked cool but it'd be a lot of hassle.
