Those looking for out there already for weeks the Easter shelves in all supermarkets from? Looking for this proud 175 gram purple egg, filled with layers of marzipan, cocoa and hazelnut cream?
Bad news: The patties Egg of Milka no longer exists!
First of all: We want to make any brand PR. Goes also not more - because the object of our desire has disappeared from the shelves. We wanted it long do not believe - and we, which is more than expected, as it turned out crystallized from casual conversations on the editorial transitions. First hoped fans and admirers, if it were a misunderstanding. Maybe Stuttgart has been forgotten in the deliveries of small, fine Easter Schmankerls, or should be particularly long stalled, on the anticipation even further Increase itself. Cries for help in other regions of the country showed, however, that elsewhere the shelves threaten to burst, although under the Osterschoki-load, the egg patties nevertheless could be spotted anywhere.
So what to do? First of googling. Since there are first of all images from the missing egg, head-on and in cross section (sigh). Lo and behold, links to all online sales platforms lead to the assertion that one can easily order home the thing. But two, by clicking three times, we end up always with the same message: Currently not available. On the homepage of the manufacturer finally find true idyllic mountain meadows and an almost endless range melt-in products. However, we suspected it all: no egg patties.
The patties Egg is probably come simply out of fashion
Finally, we turn to a fear demand for the company itself and get immediately response from a friendly lady. "I am sorry to tell you that the patties Egg this year is not part of the season range." Groan. This is justified by the innovation pressure exerted on the chocolate-makers: The patties Egg is probably come simply out of fashion.
Instead, one wants to, yet grasped us in mourning shock, equal with substitutes consolation for the loss: You can indeed times the so-called Löffelei (filled with hazelnut, milk or cocoa cream) to try? Or if it just combining Alpine milk chocolate should be with crunchy inside, maybe alternatively the eggs with Oreo- or Daim additive?
Oh no, you would probably like. We live this Easter prefer healthy and build on a small detail that gives us hope: That the patties Egg THIS YEAR is not part of the range.
Fashion or not - many can not be replaced simply.
