There isn't just one way to eat a Cadbury Creme Egg, and with new research to back this up, Cadbury created a limited-edition GooTool to help people enjoy the classic Easter treat in several different ways. Reportedly, half of Brits have eaten their Creme Egg with a utensil and 39% are open to grating their Creme Egg. The new multi-tool can help with both since it features a spork, grater, tweezers, straw and whisk to accommodate different snacking preferences.
For the launch of this eating accessory, Cadbury is leaning into the different personalities of snackers, like some who prefer to indulge in private and others who are unapologetic about messy enjoyment. This product, with five tools to help people perfect their treat-eating ritual, ultimately celebrates fan hacks.
