Yeah, me neither (9 years):A :grouphug:

Moving on to happier things... Easter choccies! What shall we do? Make slabs? Chocs from Moulds of chicks, eggs, etc? I fancy those candy melts mentioned earlier - it looks like bright coloured chocolate, has anybody used 'em? What are others planning? I fancy making some to put in an easter basket (link to an oldish easter basket thread). Trials? Yum - Trials!

Back to easter baskets then - just a thought, don't forget the bunny poo and if anyone knits I found these little chappies http://www.jeangreenhowe.com/patterns.html - how cute are they, going to start some tonight. Don't forget if it's for little ones -embroider the eyes (guess you all know that but I have to say it anyway);)

Thanks LouBlue, those moulds look good - does this mean your going to try the joiny joiny technique? You might need to do trials! :eek: ......

Yes please someone - I need help. :rotfl:

I could just do the mini moulds but want to be a bit adventurous and do a proper egg!

I have just got my molds for making chocolate. And have done a trial run with them.

They came out ok



Just need to work out how to do an easter egg and get the sides as thick as the rest of the egg.

As for glueing them together just use melted chocolate to glue the two halfs together.

Ive bought that mould from ebay, just waiting for it to be delivered! They look quite a decent size. My idea was to the do the tree in white chocolate and the back in milk or dark chocolate, and wrap them and put in xmassy mugs.
