this and that


first of all, I got off work at 11:00 today. Love days like today!

Came home and got a little cleaning done. Took a nap.

Here are just some random things...

How Cadbury Creme Egg came about
Cream filled eggs first became available in 1923, but it was not until the invention of Cadbury Creme Egg in 1971 by the scientists at the Bournville factory in Birmingham, that filled eggs became a national phenomenon.

How Cadbury Creme Egg is made
Cadbury Creme Egg is manufactured by making a chocolate shell in a half-egg shaped mould, which is then filled with white fondant and a dab of yellow fondant to simulate the yolk. Two mould halves are closed very quickly and cooled to allow the chocolate to set. When the moulds are opened, the eggs fall onto a conveyor which transports them, first to the foiling machines and then to the finished packing.

And a classic Cadbury commercial...
