Kinder Surprise Eggs
I would be very surprised if anyone would import them here as they are very fragile in
shipping. The Caribbean islands mainly use the UK distributors for all European confectionery. How many of us would also love to see the Cadbury Cream Filled Eggs here for Easter. No possible way they would ship!

I?ve seen them at Jumbo here in San Pedro. Furthermore there?s a Turkish version they sell here in the colmados
Last time i was there they were sold in the small Playro in Sosua.
That was September 08.
I like the fact that they are different from the UK ones. Gave the surprise to the wife. It was a jigsaw puzzle. I removed one piece and told her to make it without her knowing i removed a piece - but she had to do it the wrong way around - no pictures!
Ahh - it took her ages to work out there was a bit missing!
Great for every age!!!!

I am currently on holiday in Santo Domingo. And after seeing this thread, I went to a few supermarkets looking for Kinder eggs and found nothing... 
Could someone be nice enough to tell me in what supermarket in Santo Domingo I could find these? Or is it sold only in touristy areas? I'd like to get these for the kids, but so for I've found nothing.

One poster reported seeing them in the San Pedro branch of Jumbo recently, so you could try in the MegaCentro (Zona Oriental) or in Nacional supermarkets (same parent company as Jumbo). Problem is that these things come and go, they don't always restock immediately, and as Easter eggs are not part of the DR tradition it doesn't mean they will have them at this time of year in particular. If you don't find Kinder eggs, try the main chocolate section for those bags of solid chocolate eggs in coloured foil - I've seen them on sale from time to time and they are good for egg hunts.

Thanks. I'll go this weekend to both places. If I still can't find them I'll just buy any regular chocolate eggs I find.
I didn't realise Easter eggs weren't common tradition here.
