Waxman Staff Writer Mar 16, 2016 3:29 PM UTC As if Cadbury Creme Eggs weren’t rich enough to begin with, a London bakery is now selling a croissant-donut hybrid topped with the chocolate-covered candies. Rinkoff Bakery’s “Creme Egg Crodough” is coated with “white and toffee, orange fondant” and on sale for £3 each (about $4.20) through March 26, Easter weekend. “We did them last year because Easter is such a popular season for us, and I wanted to do something that wasn’t a hot cross bun — something really visual and gimmicky,” the dessert’s creator Jennifer Rinkoff tells TIME. “I wanted it to look like a creme egg had splattered, so customers are cutting the creme egg in half so that \[the inside\] spills out all over it.” It’s the latest twist on the “cronut,” a term [trademarked](http://dominiqueansel.com/cronut-101/) by New York City pastry chef Dominique Ansel, which took off [beginning in 2013](http://techland.time.com/2013/11/14/the-25-best-inventions-of-the-year-2013/slide/the-cronut/) and inspired knockoffs at artisanal bakeries worldwide; even chains like Dunkin’ Donuts hopped on the bandwagon.
