Jello Egg Molds

[killerbombshell]

I just saw an awesome commercial on Food Network for Jello that had all these cute ideas for Easter, including egg molds where you put the Jello in and ended up with little Easter eggs (see http://www.kraftfoods.com/jello/main.aspx?s=&m=jlo_fun_jigglers). I would love to be able to do something like that but don't want to order online. Anyone seen them in stores anywhere?

Re: Jello Egg Molds

Nope. But when I was a kid, we made a jello egg. First we took a raw egg, poked a small hole at both ends, then we blew the innards out. Then the empty egg shell was boiled in hot water to kill the bacteria (now that I look back, we should have washed the eggs before blowing them out, anyhow...) After they had cooled and dried. The hole at the narrow end was made alittle larger and the hole at the other end was closed by putting a dab of royal icing on the outside. The eggs were placed back into the egg carton, and jello was pour/spooned in through a funnel. When the jello was set, we peeled off the shells and ---jello eggs.

I bet you can make the eggs by using those plastic eggs that come apart in the middle too.

I bet Megs is right just buy the cheapo plastic eggs and poke hole with a hot nail in the large enough to pour the Jello in and voila ...cheaper I bet! use an empty egg carton to hold them ..I may have to try this with my agar "Jello"
good idea!
