"Just how big, though, is the colossal confectionery? Well, let's just say you might bite off more than you can chew, and definitely wouldn't want to drop it on your foot. Cadbury proudly states it to be as tall as an emperor penguin, with the poundage of a newborn horse - or, in old money, 3ft (90cm) and 7st 1lbs (45kg)," the BBC reports.

"And what's more, not a bit of the brown behemoth - on display at Birmingham tourist attraction Cadbury World - is fake. It's real chocolate, with real gooey fondant filling and even has the signature touch of the engraved twinkle.

"The only bit of the Easter treat that isn't quite legit is the wrapping. It's actually a painted veneer, presumably because there was not a piece of foil large enough, lest a run on crinkly silver lead to stale sarnies."

"Chocolatiers at Cadbury World in Birmingham claim to have crafted the world's largest Creme Egg. Standing at 3ft-tall, the Easter creation made in Bournville is roughly the height of an emperor penguin," the ITV reports.

"Painted with the Creme's Egg's iconic purple, gold and red foil wrapper and filled with the same gooey fondant used in regular creme eggs, the sweet treat weighs in at 45kg - the average weight of a newborn horse.



"Chocolatiers Terry Collins and Dawn Jenks made the egg by hand over two-and-a-half days. The creation will be on display in Cadbury World’s chocolate-making zone from April 7 to April 27."

"Confectioners have created what they believe to be the world's largest Cadbury Creme Egg. The workers at Cadbury World in Bournville, Birmingham, say the Easter creation stands at an impressive three feet tall," The Independent reports.

"The towering treat, roughly the height of an emperor penguin, replicates the classic Creme Egg design, complete with its signature purple, gold, and red foil wrapper. However, this giant egg holds a hefty 45kg of gooey fondant filling – about the same weight as a newborn horse.

"Cadbury World chocolatiers Terry Collins and Dawn Jenks dedicated two and a half days to meticulously handcrafting this colossal confection. The giant Creme Egg creation will be on display in Cadbury World’s chocolate-making zone from April 7 to April 27."

"The world's largest Cadbury Creme Egg, roughly the same size as an emperor penguin, made its debut at Cadbury World in Bournville, a small village on the southwest side of Birmingham, England on Monday," USA Today reports.

"The unusually large and edible ornament will be displayed in Cadbury World's chocolate-making zone until April 27, giving chocolate aficionados ample time to visit the attraction before Easter Sunday.

"Cadbury World’s master chocolatiers crafted the super-sized chocolate treat by hand, taking two and a half days to swirl, layer and shape the Cadbury Creme Egg with "delightful detail."

"Cadbury World is a visitor attraction in Bournville, Birmingham, England, featuring a self-guided exhibition tour, created and run by the Cadbury Company. The tour tells the history of chocolate, and of the Cadbury business.

"Cadbury World has gone on to become one of Birmingham's largest leisure attractions. Over 500,000 people visit there each year especially children and students. The estate features a respected education programme (linking back directly to the educational advancements and interests of the company's original founders). Cadbury World provides a Chocolate afternoon tea.

"Whilst not a factory tour, Cadbury World offers its visitors the opportunity to explore and discover chocolate's history, and to learn about the origins and story of the Cadbury business, which is now part of Mondelez, the world's second largest confectionery manufacturer." (Wikipedia)
