Non chocolate Easter Egg??

shoppingnoodles

Hiya all.

I wonder if you ingenious crafters can help?

I have made choccy easter eggs for my partner's kids, but the eldest (aged 12) doesn't like chocolate. I have racked my brains to think of an alternative ingredient to make him an Easter egg too, so that he isn't left out and I didn't want to but him a non sweety present.

He likes marshmallow, jelly sweets, popping candy etc. Anyone got any ideas how I could turn these into an Easter egg ( or am I just a bit mad?!
:rotfl:)

Thanks in advance!

how about rice crispies and melted marshmallow to "glue" it together, in an easter egg mould?

Not sure about the colour but you get the general idea!

Home Bargains in Leeds had some plastic eggs which contained mini packs of sweeties like Haribo and lollypops but unfortunately I didn't note the price. You could see if you could find anything like that or make up your own mix of sweets in a basket. If you're wanting to keep the easter theme you could pop a few fluffy chicks in with them.
