Cadbury Creme Egg Commercial - Sure Sign of Easter

The true sign that Easter is upon us is the traditional Cadbury Creme Egg commercial.  Every year like clockwork.

And it's the same commercial every year.  This same commercial has been airing since at least the late 80's.  Basically as long as I can remember Easter, I can remember this commercial.  You know the one... Bunny Tryouts!

I think at some point they added the cat, and may have changed the contents of the basket at the end, but I'm dead positive that lion has been there for a good 20 years.  And he really is the star of this commercial.  His magnificent "BWAK BWAK" is as recognizable as any ad slogan I can think of (for me anyway).  You'd think they might try to update the commercial, try to modernize it a bit... but you can't mess with perfection.

For how much I love this commercial, I hate the candy itself.  I get at least one every year, and I'll bite into it for tradition's sake... but I won't like it.  It's a strange consistency, and is reminiscent of biting into a raw egg.  YUM!

I did also run across this recipe to make a Cadbury Creme Deviled Egg on Cakespy.  It sounds good, looks cool, and has to be a better sensation than biting into a normal CCE.  

So here's to you, Cadbury Creme Egg Commercial, for a lifetime of excellence in making the Easter  season what it is, and ensuring that children each year partake of your disgusting innards.

I was always partial to Peeps and Reese's Eggs anyway.

Happy Easter Everybody!
