Cadbury Mini Eggs are a milk chocolate product created and produced by Cadbury. Introduced in 1967, the egg is solid milk chocolate encased in a thin coating of hard candy "shell", molded to resemble a miniature egg.

Mini Eggs were previously produced in the Keynsham plant in Somerset, U.K.; however, as of February 2010, production has moved to Cadbury's new plant in Bielany Wrocławskie, Poland.

Over the years, Cadbury has introduced a number of variations related to the original Mini Eggs, including:

• Shimmer Mini Eggs (metallic colored shells)^{[citation needed]}
• Dark Mini Eggs (dark chocolate, discontinued)^{[citation needed]}
• Popping Mini Eggs ("pops" when melted in mouth)^{[citation needed]}
• Micro Mini Eggs (even smaller variation of Mini Eggs) (introduced in 2007)^{[citation needed]}
• White Mini Eggs (white Mini Eggs with white chocolate inside) (introduced as a Target exclusive in 2014)^{[citation needed]}
• Orange Mini Eggs (orange flavour milk chocolate in an orange shell)^[1] (This variety is exclusive to Tesco stores)

Cadbury Mini Eggs are made into four colours of shell. The original colours were white, yellow, pink, and light blue. In Canada in 2010, the colours were switched to yellow, pink, green, and turquoise. In the U.K. they are now white, yellow, pink and purple with speckles.
