Cadbury Dairy Milk Lickables: The New Generation of Surprise 'Eggs'

I cannot begin to fathom the lives of those who do not eat chocolate. Surprisingly, there are quite a few. In my close circle alone, there are already three people who don't eat chocolate.

I, of course, will never understand it: I, after all, find joy in a single Kiss and a single M&M. I, after all, squeal, do a little dance, and jump up and down at the mere sight or mention of chocolate cake.

Chocolate is a miracle worker - not just for me, but for many. Out of all of the chocolate in the world, though, my ultimate favorite has always been Cadbury Fruit and Nut. So when I got invited to an event where Cadbury was going to launch something new, I simply had to go - and with my mini-me, of course. Little did I know that we would be greeted with awesome surprise after awesome surprise.

The event started with some fun activities for kids, such as face painting and coloring.

Syrena had so much fun meeting new kids (shoutout to Dylan!) and just being at the event, in general. The best part? It took place at the Mind Museum, so we could roam around the museum and enjoy that, as well!

Spotted this bad-ass drawing by one of the kids!

Soon after that, Cadbury announced what they would be launching: Cadbury Dairy Milk Lickables!

They reminded me so much of something from my childhood, so indulge me as I share a little backstory that will tie into this launch nicely: as a child, I lived for Kinder Überraschungseier, or Kinder Surprise Eggs in English. I loved the chocolate of it and the toys in them. But once I became a mom, Surprise Eggs sadly changed. The chocolate was no longer the same, and the toys were definitely no longer the same.

As such, the launch of the Cadbury Dairy Milk Lickables is as timely as ever. Now, Syrena can enjoy the same fun and wonder that I had with Kinder - with great toys and good chocolate - but with a cooler and more futuristic look to go with it (it kinda looks like a UFO, don't you think?)

And that's not even the best part... yes, it gets better... At the launch, Cadbury announced that they had a special guest waiting for us backstage. I swear nothing could prepare me for this. I thought it was going to be a celebrity or something, but no. IT WAS PIKACHU!!!

Why Pikachu? Well, for its launch in the Philippines, Cadbury Dairy Milk Lickables have collectible Pokemon toys inside! If you're around my age and have a kid, you have to agree that this is the ultimate bonding opportunity as you'll both be excited to unbox new toys.

As a world leader in chocolates, Cadbury Dairy Milk offers this new way to enjoy bonding moments with your kids, and we are so happy it has finally made its way to South East Asia, including Malaysia and the Philippines. It's just one more fun way to enjoy the Cadbury taste we know and love.

Another shoutout to Dylan, who gave Syrena the toy in his Cadbury Dairy Milk Lickables. Hihi.
