Harrogate chippy sells deep fried creme eggs

A Harrogate fish and chip shop has put an unusual twist on the Cadbury’s Creme Egg by dipping them in batter and frying them.

Sophie Phillips, who owns Harrogate Fisheries on Skipton Road with her partner Tim, said the cream egg innovation “sounds totally wrong” but they have been a hit with customers.

We took the unusual delicacy to the people of Harrogate who gave their verdict.

Although the eggs won’t break the bank at a cost of £1.50 each or three for £4, their calorie content is unconfirmed.

Sophie added:

“We had some Creme Eggs and a member of staff wondered what it would taste like deep fried.

“We tasted it and thought wow — this is pretty nice!”

“It’s not to everybody’s tastes. It’s just a bit of fun but it’s got people talking. It’s just a naughty treat.”
