How I love chocolate and how I ADORE Easter Egg chocolate! I can remember as a child being excited by all the layers to unwrap in an egg. First came the box, preferably with a big ribbon that I could use again.
This was was coloured, embossed and rubbed over with viva gold paste.
Then came the delicate foil paper that I wanted to try and keep in a single piece and rub flat with my finger.
Then the egg would appear, and shatter into pieces when I tapped it and oooh how delicious that chocolate would taste! This was painted and embossed paper.
Think I will have to go and buy one now! Have a lovely week everyone, I shall enjoy all your eggs without putting on any weight! xx
A lovely collection of eggs! Connie.
