Cadbury's Worldwide Hide

Cadbury “Worldwide Hide” takes us on a global easter egg hunt. Recognising the limitations of social gatherings, Cadbury along with VCCP are making use of Google Maps Street View for a virtual “Cadbury Worldwide Hide.”

With this new promotion, people can hide Cadbury’s iconic purple chocolate eggs anywhere in the world for a loved one. It takes the usual garden egg hunt and helps you travel the world in search of the Iconic Purple Cadbury Egg, hidden somewhere that is meaningful to you and the hider. Take part hereTake part here
