World's Largest Cadbury Mini Egg, Known As 'Mega Mini Egg', Revealed For Easter


(MENAFN- Live Mint) In a playful nod to Easter traditions, a team of chocolatiers at Cadbury World has created another record-breaking confection just in time for the celebrations. After crafting the world's largest Cadbury Creme Egg last year, the team returned with an even more ambitious creation for 2026.

From Mini to Mega

Chocolatiers Claire Fielding, Dawn Jenks and Donna Pitt turned their attention to the much-loved Cadbury Mini Eggs-but on an extraordinary scale. The result, dubbed the 'Mega Mini Egg', weighs an impressive 121 lbs and stands 27.5 inches tall, despite its name suggesting otherwise. Remarkably, the trio completed the giant chocolate piece in just two days, People reported.

“After the amazing reaction to last year's gigantic Cadbury Creme Egg, we knew we had to craft something just as fantastic for 2026," Fielding said in a statement.“Cadbury Mini Eggs are another absolute favourite and a British Easter staple, so creating the Mega Mini Egg felt like the perfect next challenge.”

Much like the original treats, the Mega Mini Egg features the signature speckled shell design. The chocolatiers carefully replicated the familiar look and chocolate centre, transforming it into a large-scale spectacle.

"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," Fielding was quoted as saying by People.

Jenks, who previously worked on the world's largest Cadbury Creme Egg -measuring 3 feet tall and weighing 99 lbs-has been part of several imaginative chocolate builds. Speaking to NPR in April 2025, she revealed that the process begins with a mould and includes a“secret recipe” for the fondant.

"We've made lots of things," Jenks said of the team's other chocolate creations.“We've done a crown for the Jubilee. We've built the Globe Theatre, Shakespeare's Theatre, as well. Lots of various different Christmas and Halloween creations, as well.”

As with its predecessor, the Mega Mini Egg is not intended for consumption. Instead, it serves as a visual centrepiece for visitors, who can admire the craftsmanship and take photographs alongside it.

The giant creation is currently on display at Cadbury World's chocolate-making area in Birmingham until April 12. Visitors can also enjoy a themed attraction,“Freddo's Egg-Cellent Easter”, inspired by Cadbury Freddo, making it a festive outing for families during the holiday season.
