How 1.2 Million Cadbury Eggs are Made Every Day

Easter’s around the corner, and a giant fuzzy rabbit is already prepping to make his rounds with pastel baskets stocked with jelly beans. (Hide your kids.) Along with the general festivities, the holiday also calls for the obligatory hurrah for Cadbury Creme Eggs, which are admittedly quite good.

So, since it’s Friday, we encourage you to waste the last hours of work watching machines squirt Cadbury Creme Eggs into chocolate molds, fuse them into egg-shaped capsules and usher them off to millions of sweet-toothed dreamers around the world.

A few major disappointments, however: there’s no human-sized bunny shitting out chocolate eggs and oompa loompas wrapping them up in colored foil. Yikes.
