Cadbury, the same people who make those Cadbury Creme Eggs that cause thousands to forget counting calories, is hiring people to taste chocolate. Hiring food tasters? YES! Sure, there are some caveats. But tasting chocolate for money? That’s too awesome not to share.
If love Cadbury and you’re looking for something yummy to make for Easter, try our decadent Cadbury recipes for Cadbury Cupcakes, Cadbury Cookies or Cadbury Cheesecake Dip. I’ll admit it. I have a little bit of a Cadbury addiction.
If being hired as a food taster sounds like fun to you, read this whole post because I went snooping for other companies hiring food tasters. What could be a more fun way to make money?

Taste of Solae
Much like Contract Testing, this site will match you with foods that need to be tasted when they become available. You only have to register.
The difference is that you are paid in gift cards rather than cash. They have a point system to earn gift cards, but unfortunately, the only thing the site says about how many points you earn is that it varies based on what you test.
They do mention that once you sign up, you can invite other people to join and get 5 extra points toward a gift card.
