Cadbury went ahead and crammed down the essence of their Number One Treat into little cookie shapes. This might seem like a step in the wrong direction, as half the fun of Creme Eggs are biting into the chocolate shell and then letting the goopy insides ooze out. But let&#8217;s not jump to conclusions, shall we?<\/p>\n<p>It says that these kajiggers are new on the package, and I&#8217;ve certainly never seen them before. I&#8217;m going to take it ad face value and assume that 2014 is the first year that these have existed. I&#8217;m so <del>lazy<\/del> confident that I&#8217;m not even going to do a Google search to verify it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4410\" alt=\"ccebisc02\" src=\"http:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc02.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc02.jpg 600w, https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc02-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc02-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The package is very similar in size to that of standard Reese Peanut Butter Cups, so I figured that there would be three biscuits held within. Turns out that there were actually six! The little guys are much thinner than you might expect, so there&#8217;s more of &#8217;em crammed in there. Otherwise, they cut a pretty standard figure. If I had to compare them to anything, I&#8217;d say that they look like a squashed Viva Puff.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc03.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4411\" alt=\"ccebisc03\" src=\"http:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc03.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc03.jpg 600w, https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc03-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/torrentialequilibrium.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/ccebisc03-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Lo and behold, they are even more Viva Puff-esque on the inside! Yes, that&#8217;s right, there&#8217;s a cookie base in here. At first it seems like a blasphemous addition to the tried-and-true Creme Egg formula, but let me tell you a thing: &#8230;we need to set the scene here before I tell you.<\/p>\n<p>Picture me. Sitting at a desk, talking across to you. I&#8217;m wearing a dress shirt that visibly has not been ironed in weeks, but isn&#8217;t too wrinkly because I hang it up as soon as the dryer cycle finishes. I have a stern look on my face. It contrasts significantly with my normally jovial demeanor; you know that whatever I&#8217;m about to say is very serious. I breathe in deeply. I look you square in the eye and your heart begins to beat a little faster. I pound my fist on the table to emphasize my point as I declare:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>&#8220;These biscuits are Goddamned Delicious!&#8221;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Easter season is long since over, but I still have some things to say about it!
