Oh my goodness. I get goosebumps just reading this thread.

I am fascinated with cream eggs because they repulse me until I touch tounge to them, and then I am incapable of cognizant thought until the egg is gone.

Then the cycle begins all over again.

Don’t tell me I’m the only one who scoops out the insides with a finger.

I guess I am. :o

I bite the top third off and eat the chocolatey, creamy goodness. Then suck the remaining cream out of the egg. MMMMmmmmm! Once I’m left with an empty chocolate shell, I just let it melt in my mouth.  
Oooooohhhhh yeh.

Max 🙂

I haven’t actually eaten one for several years. When I did, I usually bit the top off, then finished the central part in two or three bites, and then ate the blunt end.

It really varies!

Sometimes I’ll cram the whole thing into my mouth, sometimes I’ll bite 'em in half (either along the seam, or perpindicular to the seam), sometimes I’ll nibble one end off a bit and lick/suck the cream out, other times I’ll nibble an end off and use a finger to get the cream out. (And, I’ll even do combinations of the above!)

I’ve found the regular, caramel, and chocolate eggs. I hear rumour though that there’s another flavor floating about?

Make a bite in the smaller end (seems like the chocolate there is thicker than on the larger end), and let the chocolate melt in my mouth. Scoop out the fondant with my finger, and then finish the chocolate, letting every bite melt in my mouth before taking another bite.
