Did Cadbury boxed hollow Easter eggs (9 → 8 egg box) shrink?

Source and evidence

Against official inflation: ABS CPI (AU) “snacks and confectionery” changed +3.1% (12 months to Apr 2026, a broad match for this category). The size cut alone raises the price per egg by +12.5% if the shelf price stayed the same (the source recorded no prices). Every case is compared the same way in the ShrinkRadar Index.

What the source says

“…Meanwhile, the 10-pack is one egg lighter and almost $2 more expensive than it was 12 months ago, and last year’s 9-egg box has been replaced with an 8-egg version. But the biggest crack in value for money comes in the form of the ‘largest’ box in Cadbury’s hollow hunting egg range.”
