Birmingham's famous Cadbury World unveils world's largest 'mini egg' that weighs in at 55kg
Birmingham’s famous sweet treat attraction Cadbury World has unveiled the world’s largest ‘mini egg’ ahead of the Easter holidays.
You may have looked at that headline and thought - well, it’s not a mini egg if it’s comically large - and physically that is true, there is nothing mini about this egg.
Following the success of last year, when Cadbury World made the world’s largest Creme Egg, the company’s expert chocolatiers were in search of a new challenge.
Many Cadbury fans requested a giant version of another favourite - the Mini Egg.
In response, expert chocolatiers at Cadbury World got to work. The team, Claire Fielding, Dawn Jenks and Donna Pitt, spent two days carefully making the giant chocolate egg by hand, which has now been dubbed the “Mega Mini Egg”.
The finished product stands 70 centimetres tall and weighs 55 kilograms, about the same as an adult cheetah, as is coated in a pastel pink sugar shell with small speckles, just like the original.
Commenting on the creation, Chocolatier at Cadbury World, Claire Fielding, said, “After the amazing reaction to last year’s gigantic Cadbury Creme Egg, we knew we had to craft something just as fantastic for 2026.
“Cadbury Mini Eggs are another absolute favourite and a British Easter staple, so creating the Mega Mini Egg felt like the perfect next challenge. We took that instantly recognisable shell and chocolate centre and scaled it up into a real showstopper.
“It’s been so rewarding seeing it come to life, and we can’t wait for visitors to come and see it in person this Easter.”
The giant chocolate creation will be on display at Cadbury World in Bournville, Birmingham during Easter from March 30.
Visitors can also enjoy the new show, “Freddo’s Egg-Cellent Easter,” featuring magic, music, laughter, and audience participation, running from March 28 to April 12.
