I had them when I was a kid too. I’m not sure if this is the same one but I’m going to order regardless.

I am also looking for these for years. I also thought they were perugina, but haven’t been able to find them. They used to be sold in tiny clear bags wiht a litle twist-tie at the top. Does anyone know where to buy them?

My Mom got us these from New York as we were growing up in the Panama Canal Zone. I used to order them from Macy’s for my children. Would love to get them for my grandchildren. Please contact me if you find them.

I remember these eggs since 1960s Rome when I was a kid – just found them at a South African shop around the corner from me for £3.99. Result.

OH BOY! I FOUND THEM or at least who makes them and where they can be bought- but by the time I ship to the U.S they may be too expensive but here it is:

Wendy, thank you for the suggestion but I am familiar with kinder eggs and they’re not the ones. The ones I had were exactly as Ramona describes above.

Every year I go online and look in the Italian pastry shops for these eggs. When I was younger we would get them from the pastry shop. I just asked the owner of the pastry shop if he remembered who put them out and he said perugina. I still can’t seem to find them It had a white candy shell with dark chocolate inside that came with a trinket inside. Sold in a egg crate. I found them a few years ago from a german website. But can’t seemed to find them ever since.
