Little Pretty Things are excited to be making Easter Eggs tomorrow, Wednesday 13th April at the Mansion House in York with BBC Radio York, live on air at 7.45am and 8.45am We'll be sharing our tips and secrets for making Easter Eggs. It's always a bit of an interesting one for us, as everyone wants to know how these gorgeous Eggs are created, however for us they bring back horrible nightmares. Chocolate Easter Eggs were the first chocolate making that got me very annoyed as a child, I was about 9 years old and did every experiment possible to try and figure out what was happening with the chocolate, how could I make it glossy, how did it come out of the mould, how do you make it hollow? At lot of chocolate making has happened since those early experimental days in the kitchen, however I still hear those anxious noises when I mention Easter Egg making to anyone, it really is simple, so simple that we hope BBC Radio York will all go home with some gorgeous chocolate creations and a little bit more knowledge about how Easter Eggs are made. We'll also be showing off our inventive method for making Easter Eggs without the need for a chocolate mould, they are even simpler! Have a look below how to make your own Easter Eggs or join us at The Mansion House on Sunday 17th April and we'll show you exactly what to do! How to make Easter Eggs The following instructions are ideal to be able to make Easter Eggs using a fantastic set of chocolate moulds available at Lakeland. Use 500g of tempered chocolate or chocolate flavoured cake covering (There is no need to temper chocolate flavoured cake covering, so it might be easier to practice with, if you would like to learn how to temper chocolate visit our instruction sheet here)
Some lovely packaging is now readily available for you to be able to beautifully wrap your Easter Egg creations. Have a look at Lakeland, Morrisons or one of our favourites online at Cakes, Cookies and Crafts |
