I’ve always fancied having a go at making an Easter egg but have never got round to it. When the guys from Stay in Devon asked if I would like to try one of theirs it seemed like the perfect chance to attempt it. The kit consisted of: chocolate drops from Choconchoc, sweets, mould, chef’s hat and instructions. You can see the kit (I unfortunately ate it before I took a photo!) on their website. I have to admit that it took me a few weeks to get up the courage to make the eggs, hence why the post is so close to Easter!
I was surprised how easy it was, I didn’t get chocolate everywhere and layering up the chocolate was quite enjoyable. The instructions said to use a microwave to melt the chocolate, and I don’t have a microwave, so I was picturing having to reheat the bowl of chocolate on the hob all the time but the chocolate stayed liquid long enough to do three coats no problem. The chocolate itself was really nice; I’m not one for eating a whole chocolate egg in one go but this one I did! If you’re looking for Easter weekend ideas, rainy day inspiration or want to know what exactly goes into your Easter egg then I can thoroughly recommend making your own.
Thank you to Stay in Devon for the Easter egg kit. All opinions and words expressed are my own.
I was also asked to do the review but when they found out how far away I am, they felt sorry for me because they couldn’t send to me. Looks awesome.
That is precious! So cute
