Cadbury's New Creme Egg Shop Looks a Lot Like an Old Video Store

You’ll find some sweet titles at Cadbury’s retro video shop, but no movies.

Located at the John Lewis store in Oxford Street, London, the ’80s-style pop-up promotes Cadbury’s “EATertainment” platform, which launched in January, streaming short films that revolve around the Mondelez brand’s oozy-gooey Creme Eggs.

Devised by agency Elvis with help from Fuel4, the activation boasts video boxes touting online content such as “The Other Half” (about a doting husband and wife, and Creme Eggs); “Eat With Your Ears” (Egg-SMR); and “Goo on Goo” (SFW egg-roticsm).

Patrons can watch highlights while buying Creme Egg treats and movie-themed tins. Just in time for Easter!

“We thought tapping into the nostalgia of a retro video store was a fun way to bring that streaming platform into the real world,” says Elvis managing partner Caroline Davison. “We wanted to create a broader reach outside of traditional broadcast channels and bring Cadbury Creme Egg to a new retail environment.”

The store will egg-sist through April 13, though perhaps they’ll keep the yolk running if enough fans egg them on.
