People were thoroughly confused earlier this week when the official Cadbury's Twitter account replied to a question about how to pronounce Creme Eggs, and seemed to suggest that it's meant to be 'crem' (to rhyme with 'them').

Wait, what?

After one mighty debate online, it turns out all this fuss was caused by a simple typo.

Yes, it's actually pronounced 'cream' after all.

Looks like we missed out the ‘a’ there! Most definitely pronounced as ‘Cream’ egg!
