I got Cadbury's Cream Eggs in Target last night (made in the UK too) as well as Cadbury's Mini Eggs, but the latter were a Hershey product. They taste good but are not as pretty as the UK variety.

Re: chocolate
Please check the country of manufacture of the products before you purchase.
e.g. I bought Lindt chocs for Easter and didn't bother to check the country of manufacture. Back at home, discovered they're made in the US!

Re: chocolate
I took a British friend and her goddaughter in law to the local Indian grocery store. They stock an extensive selection of British manufactured chocolates (Mars bars, Crunchies, Galaxies, Flake, Double Decker, Buttons, etc.). My British friend had a fine time picking up some chocs.

I don't remember them having galaxy though unfortunately. Lately they've had both the white and milk chocolate buttons
