But at least we can eat our Australian made cadburys chocolate in Australia :D

And we can have Caramello Koalas instead :)

I think the cadbury factory is in Dunedin ( not sure of spelling ) in New Zealand.

No, the closest is in Claremont, Tasmania.

To the OP - Cadbury's creme eggs are readily available here - and there's no noticable difference between the ones you buy in the UK and the ones you buy here.

Nope, my mother posted some out for my Birthday. :D However, Lindt, Guylain and Ferrero Rocher are all imported here so we pig out on them instead. :cool:

Re: no cadburys for the aussies..
 
When we visited Auz (Easter 2005) we tried a selection of different chocs, and cadbury's do unfortunately taste different :thumbdown:

Toblerone on the other hand, tasted exactly the same - you just have to eat it quick before it melts!! :)

moo-cow! x

Especially now that Coles have started selling the big Lindt bars with hazelnuts in them. :o After Easter we're going back to only having chocolate on Fridays. At least its cooling down so we can get out and do some exercise. Anyone for tennis? :D

In the voice of Vicky Pollard from Little Britain ''I SOOOO CAN'T BELIEVE YOU JUST SAID THAT '' !!!!!!!!! :rofl:

Caramello Koalas are my favourite! And violet crumbles, & I'm partial to a bag or 10 of Twisties (not chocolate I know!) Ahhh, this time in a few months I will be able to sit in a bath of CK's or Twisties if I want... can't wait !!! :thumbsup:

Does anyone know why Cadbury's Choc taste different over here?

I like the way you can buy a large range of chocolate eggs in Oz - as in just the eggs and not all the crap that goes with them like the cardboard boxes and plastic inserts filled with other bits and pieces. It's too hard to hide all this stuff in the garden, especially in the hanging baskets!! The egg hunt is the best bit about Easter Sunday morning - the Disney character boxes just don't quite do it when you are wanting to create little nests in the pots!!
I know that you can get the Lindt eggs and Blacks organic range in the UK, but I like the brightly coloured foil wrapped range that you get so readily in Coles and Woolies. Mint and Caramel-filled mini eggs and Crunchie pieces in the larger eggs - yummo.
