Hand-made chocolate egg

Hand-made chocolate egg by Torie Jayne

I have never made a big chocolate egg... until now! But when a certain little person said they would love a blue egg for Easter, their wish was my command!

Chocolate egg
What you will need:

Hand made chocolate egg

Instructions
  1. Temper (melt) white chocolate
  2. Stir in blue chocolate food colouring a little at a time until you have desired colour. Stir well so colour is even
  3. Fill mould full of melted chocolate, let it sit for a few minutes.
  4. Then pour the liquid chocolate out. Some of the chocolate will have solidified on the inside of the mould
  5. Leave to set. Refrigerating speeds up this process and can make it easier to turn out
  6. Carefully release the eggs from the plastic moulds

I filled mine with coloured candy and a little white rabbit then wrapped it tightly in cling film and tied a pretty ribbon round it.

Bunnies are looking after the egg!

  9. When I pour colouring to mz chocolate, it's consistence becomes weird, like if I over-heated it on the water bath :c It is not liquid at all

    1. Hi, sorry to hear that, What did you use? the colouring should be powder colouring, if it is not, the chocolate will start to seize.
