1) mum and giggi made these beautiful rabbits out of boiled eggs (the kits were from when we lived in Germany 30 years ago - still good). No fructose here :-)
2) the chocolate and the moulds worked! see here for my previous attempt...
my tips:
- we picked up moulds and foil wrappers from Spotlight for around $10
- make sure you lightly grease the moulds with olive oil on paper towel
- let the chocolate cool a little before filling half a mould half full of chocolate (about 30g of chocolate for this size egg)
- clamp the moulds together with pegs or elastic bands before swirling the chocolate around to make sure that there are no holes
- put in the fridge and turn every 2 mins to ensure even coverage (for about 10mins)
- leave the chocolate in for another hour or so to make sure the chocolate has fully set.
et voila!

I really like that the eggs are hollow: less chocolate for one thing but more importantly it reminds us that on Easter Sunday the tomb was empty because Jesus had come back to life. I love opportunities like this to talk to my kids about what really matters :-)
