In a playful nod to Easter traditions, a team of chocolatiers at Cadbury World have created another record-breaking confection just in time for the festivities. After making the world’s largest Cadbury Creme Egg last year, the team are back with an even more ambitious creation for 2026.
From Mini to Mega
Chocolatiers Claire Fielding, Dawn Jenks and Donna Pitt have 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 pounds 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 response to last year’s gigantic Cadbury Creme Egg, we knew we had to create something equally fantastic for 2026,” Fielding said in a statement. “Cadbury Mini Eggs are another absolute favorite and a British Easter staple, so creating the Mega Mini Egg seemed like the next perfect challenge.”
Staying true to a classic favorite
Like the original treats, the Mega Mini Egg features a signature speckled design. The chocolatiers have carefully replicated the familiar look and chocolate center and transformed it into a spectacular spectacle.
“We took that instantly recognizable shell and chocolate center and scaled it up into a real showstopper. It was so rewarding to see it come to life and we can’t wait for visitors to come see it in person at Easter,” Fielding said, according to People.
History of chocolate creations
Jenks, who previously worked on the world’s largest Cadbury Creme Egg — measuring 3 feet and weighing 99 pounds — has been part of several imaginative chocolate builds. In an interview with NPR in April 2025, she revealed that the process starts with a mold and involves a “secret recipe” for fondant.
“We made a lot of stuff,” Jenks said of the team’s other chocolate creations. “We made a jubilee crown. We also built the Globe Theatre, the Shakespeare Theatre. Also lots of different Christmas and Halloween creations.”
For display, not for tasting
As with its predecessor, the Mega Mini Egg is not intended for consumption. Instead, it serves as a visual focal point for visitors to admire the craft and take photos alongside it.
The giant creation is currently on display at Cadbury World’s chocolate making area in Birmingham until April 12. Visitors can also look forward to the ‘Freddo’s Egg-Cellent Easter’ themed attraction, inspired by Cadbury Freddo, making it a festive outing for families during the holiday season.
