Cadbury Creme Eggs are a treat that gains popularity around Easter time. These eggs are not really eggs at all and they contain no cream. Each Cadbury Creme Egg is made to resemble an egg with a milk chocolate shell. The inside is filled with a sugary fondant confection of white and yellow that resembles the contents of a real egg. A Cadbury Creme Egg, like most candy, is not a particularly good source of vitamins or minerals. The egg is high in calories and sugar. It provides some protein and a small amount of calcium.
