adminEach Choco Treasure egg features a specially-designed capsule that separates the two halves of the chocolate shell so that even a three-year-old can see there’s something on the inside.
The surprise eggs will come in three variations, including a Spider-man themed egg licensed from Marvel, and will contain toys safe enough for children of all ages.
In 1938, the FDA passed the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, which prohibits “non-nutritive (inedible) object inside a candy”’ As a result of the law, more than 60 000 surprise eggs are seized at the US border each year with penalties up to US$2 500 per egg, according to the food news website, Foodbeast. The Choco Treasure eggs will be available nationwide this Easter at retailers and through the product website, chocotreasure.com.
The manufacturers also plan to sponsor charity Easter egg hunts nationwide by donating eggs to St. Jude’s Children’s ranch & hospital, the LA Zoo, NY City Parks Dept, Chicago Parks Dept, Glazer children’s museum, and the Drumthwacket foundation. – Daily Mail.
