How To Make Sugar Easter Eggs

Sugar Easter Eggs are the perfect Easter craft and they're a lot of fun to make! All you need is some sugar and a egg mold to get started. They are quite simply an adorable old-fashioned treat you can make with your kids and have a lot of fun!

Sugar eggs are a fun Easter craft activity, and the resulting product can be saved and displayed for many years. They are easy to make and you`ll need just a few ingredients you probably already have at home.
What you’ll need:
Ingredients:
  1. Egg Mold
  2. 5 cups Granulated Sugar
  3. Food colors
  4.  Water
  5. Royal Icing Mix (for decorating)
Eggs are made ​of sugar mixed with little water and food color and decorated with royal icing. Great thing is that eggs are empty, so you can put candy or note inside, and you can keep them for years!
How to make sugar eggs: 
Preheat oven to 150 degrees F.
In a large bowl mix sugar with water to achievconsistency of wet sand. If you want to color your eggs, add your liquid food color to the water before you mix it with a sugar. 

Pack the egg mold tightly with sugar. Packing the sugar tightly will avoid cracks in the finished egg. No need to coat the mold with anything, the sugar will release on its own like wet sand being turned out of a bucket. Scrape the excess sugar off with a spatula or knife.

Using a piece of cardboard cut to the size of your egg mold, place against the mold and flip the mold over. Slowly lift the mold off releasing the sugar egg from the mold and leaving it on top of the cardboard. Repeat to make your next half.
Place the cardboard and eggs on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven at 150 degrees F for 15 minutes. After baking, let them cool for about 10 minutes.
Attach the front half and the back half together using a round tip to pipe royal icing along the edge. Hold it together for a few minutes until it’s firmly attached. Decorate with royal icing, flowers, harts, etc.
You can use remaining sugar to made cute colorful  sugar cubes for your tea or coffee.
And there you have it! Beautiful Sugar Easter Eggs! Display your sugar egg during the Easter season. To save it, wrap it carefully in paper or plastic and store it in a box in a safe place. Do not refrigerate the egg, and do not attempt to eat it! Stored properly, your egg can be saved for many years.
