Everything you thought you knew about Creme Eggs is wrong
Well, maybe not everything. Just the important bit, after someone had a question for Creme Egg maker Cadbury on Twitter.
This is how they replied.
And some people just couldn’t cope. You could almost say it was a meltdown.

Creme eggs…
Pronounced Crem?
Fuck off Cadbury’s & don’t be so stupid. #cremeegg

I pronounce it as Cadbury’s third rate chocolate filled with shitty wet sugar Egg, actually.

If its supposed to be pronounced 'Crem', why did you market the Halloween "Screme Egg" to rhyme with 'scream'? SCREM EGG?! https://t.co/cO2BUlZu8p

Except then this happened.

And then this.
Looks like we missed out the ‘a’ there! Most definitely pronounced as ‘Cream’ egg! 😁

Eggscellent spot from @mrdanwalker our brains were a little fried from all the Creme Egg Camp eggscitement! Don't worry everyone, Creme Egg is pronounced as 'Cream' Egg https://t.co/Pr8wgjLWDa

They also got in touch with Shawna Lee, who first asked the question.
It’s definitely pronounced as Cream! 😊

Let the post mortem begin.
Genuinely think this is accidental but social media managers should note the pure reach of Cadbury mispronouncing it's own product https://t.co/eTQqPg7CEe

At least there’s one thing we can all agree on.
Cadbury eggs make terrible butt plugs.
