Notes

Keep your Copycat Cadbury Eggs fresh in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, allowing them to sit out for 15-20 minutes before serving for the ideal gooey center and chocolate snap.
The light corn syrup is your secret weapon for that perfectly gooey, slightly runny center; don't skip it to achieve the authentic Cadbury experience!
For a professional, shiny chocolate coating, make sure to incorporate the vegetable shortening or coconut oil into your melted chocolate; it helps thin it for a smooth, even dip.
When shaping, make sure to create a clearly defined yellow 'yolk' within the white filling; it makes for a delightful and authentic surprise when your lucky recipient bites in!
