Spotted and bought today - 12 packs of mini Cadbury's Creme Eggs in H.E.B. $2.99 - said on sticker 'Exclusive to H.E.B.' so get 'em while you can.
No sooner had I gotten over all the Valentines packets of goodies everything has gone pastel

I think I read somewhere that they are only made in the UK. Probably not worth the cost of setting up a production line elsewhere. I've seen the regular size ones around this year but they seem way more expensive than last year. I could get a box of 4 for $1.99 last year, but the same store this year only has them individually for a buck each.

Longs Drugs has them here in California. I was looking at the mini ones and opted for the big ones (which look like they have shrunk from when I was a kid)

Costco usually sell them around Easter...18 in a box if I remember correctly.
I prefer the Cadbury's mini eggs...the solid chocolate small eggs covered in a crispy sugar coating.

Keep a look out at Walgreens, Rite Aid and other shops like that, the cream eggs go on sale there 3 for $1. Not too keen on the orange cream eggs though.

Did you see the Christmas ones - white, red and green spheres rather than egg shaped. They weren't bad but I still prefered original mini eggs though the 'shell' was tastier.

I missed those. I brought some Cadbury's chocolate tree decorations back from the UK last November.

I'm wondering how much they are in the UK now? I'm off to London tomorrow for the weekend and plan to bring some back if they're cheaper (along with plenty of other goodies). I will probably get some of the Creme Egg Bars too.
