Rainbow Jelly Eggs!

Yes - that's right.........................

I want to make these!!!!!

So - I get myself set up!

Egg  "shells" - Check

Jelly - Check

Black 'gaffa' tape and blutak - Check!  Wait - WHAT!!

Well you see - there are holes at the top and bottom of each egg - how is the liquid jelly mix supposed to stay inside the egg - if there is a hole for it to go outside the egg!!!

Bring on the blutak for the hole at the bottom - the 'gaffa' tape to go round the centre of the egg to stop leakage from the 'join' and we are set to go!!

You would think I would give up by now!!!

Today - as it is my first time - I will limit this exercise to just FOUR colours.  This is without doubt the smartest thing I did in relation to making "Rainbow Jelly Eggs"

With a 20ml syringe - I squirt around 5-10ml of liquid jelly flavour #1 into each egg!  Then place it in the specially purchased easter egg carton to solidify!!

I repeat the above process with jelly flavour #2 some 20mins later, and again and again and again and again and again - oh - probably too many agains!!  But, by the last layer - I had had enough!!

So - did it work???

Well - you be the judge!!

To get the egg out of the 'shell' - I peeled off the gaffa tape, picked off the blutak and ran some warm water over the egg.  Having sprayed the inside of each egg prior to 'gaffa lock down' - getting the eggs out was much easier then getting them in!!

They were not pretty and most of them split in the middle - but there were fun!!

Funnily enough - "They taste like JELLY Mum!!!!"

Thank goodness for that!!

It would seem there are two ways to eat Rainbow Jelly Eggs!!

One is to just 'hoover' it up from the bowl 

or

the more dainty approach is to shove the whole egg into your mouth from your slightly cupped hand!

While I made Rainbow Jelly Eggs - the kids decorate the chooks egg with some templates that I found in Melbourne!!  This was also a bit of fun - and a bit messy!!!

Thankfully - there was no breakages!!
