Philadelphia Candies Nut Easter Egg, Milk Chocolate 8 Ounce (Almonds, Brazils, Cashews, Pecans)

Excellent is too short for a review but it is the first word that comes to mind. I had come to believe that nothing was made with old fashioned pride in workmanship, but I am happy to say that I was wrong. My little German grandmother was born in the early 1900's and so was taught to be an excellent cook and homemaker. I mention this because she made the most wonderful candies for special occasions including Easter, and this was the most wonderful candy I've had since Easter 1972. I thought the price was a bit high until I tasted the delightful Fruit & Nut Easter Egg, it's actually a bargain.

This is the best thing I ever ate. Seriously off the charts heavenly. I bought 3 different ones and the other 2 (Coconut and chocolate fudge) are delicious and beyond sweet. I've never tried the dark chocolate so I ordered milk chocolate on all. The maple nut is beyond delivious. It's hard to tell in the pics what the nuts are. It looks like peanuts but I think every nut I know and love was mixed in this filling. The inside was a little chewy, little more like a nougat, with a subtle taste of maple. I will never hesitate to buy this one again. Yes it's expensive but worth every penny.

The chocolate turned white only hours after being delivered. I researched it and this is "normal" and still ok to eat. However, the inside of this fruit and nut egg had the consistency of bubble gum and ABSOLUTELY no taste. To say that I am disappointed, is an UNDERSTATEMENT! I am glad I didn't order as a gift for someone. How embarrassing!

The BEST fruit and nut Easter egg I have had since the 60's! As good as if not better than the Fanny Mae egg my father used to by for me. This will definitely be ordered again. Thanks! Best mailing, best packaging, super value, freshness, and of course appearance was perfect. And taste -- WOWWIE WOW WOW!

Unfortunately when this arrived, it had melted - possibly due to the temperature in the delivery van?I froze it immediately, to stop the melting - and then sliced off a piece. Since it’s milk chocolate, it was very sweet and creamy - it tasted very fresh, not waxy.A little bit goes a long way, unless you are a person with a fiendish sweet tooth.

I was looking for the chocolate fruit and nut Easter egg from my childhood and decided to buy the 4 oz. to try it out. It was so much more delicious than I remembered! Plus, the presentation in the box was so pretty and neat. I will buy the 8 oz. the next time.

It arrived completely melted. I'm thinking it was in hot trucks during shipment. I order large candy eggs from this company every year. They are delicious and have always arrived in excellent condition. I put this one in the fridge then opened it. It was a blob on the bottom of the box but still chocolate, and tastes fine. I had to jump thru a few hoops but was able to get a refund. Easter is over so I'll just consider tne part that didn't adhere to the paper a chocolate bar, thus 3 stars. .

Although the chocolate on this egg was good, the inside was more like a marshmallow fluff than a stable Maple filling. It's a nut egg a maple nut egg and they're in the course of sharing the egg and slicing it for people, there were two tiny slices of a pecan, one nut that look like it might be a hazelnut and the rest were almonds. I hate almonds. So I got almost no nuts out of this supposed Maple nut egg. Like I say the chocolate was good the rest of it nope not so much. You can be guaranteed I'll never order another one and never recommend it.
