HILARIOUS EASTER EGGS CAKES for your little ones.

With Easter festivities everywhere,from the malls with big fluffy Easter bunnies to take pictures with, or grocery store fridge aisle lined with easter theme cookie doughs and pre colored egg shells, my youngest wanted to get in on the action!

Mama! Can we paint eggs but I don't like them so I won't eat them!

Hmmm how about we save the shells and fill them up with something else edible, but what? I wondered aloud. 

How about cake mom!!

Aha ! why not ? Immediately I got googling on my computer, and Lo and Behold, found tons of ideas how to bake cake in egg shells. So we ended up creating these funny little hilarious characters today. I am just bummed that my little one's original idea is not really the original one! Anyway this is a super fun quality time activity with your kids! Do try :)

So just make any white cake batter, portion and dye with a few drops of neon colors.

 Use ziplock bags to pour each color about a teasp each and should all in all be 3/4th of the shell full.


Bake in preheated oven 350 degrees, for 17 to 18 minutes. Let the rainbow batter over flow. Thats going to be your crazy hairs :) Let cool and draw funny faces on each. My 10 yr old daughter came up with most of the expressions and original names for them all :)


Meet "The French Artist! "


Mr Moustache !!

                               

The Naughty Aunty!


and my daughter made this "Bucktooth Bob!"


The Blushing Betty !


The Shy Lady !


The Rainbow Family !


The cake is baked perfectly inside, nice and spongy.


And when u break the shell,the cakes comes out nice and clean.


And the best part is yet to come when you break open the shells to find some awesome rainbow cake arrangement! 



Do make these with your kids. they will really have a lot of fun with it! I will be wrapping them in clear cellophane and hiding them inside the family room and kitchen for the kids to try and find them.  Hope you have fun making these as we did.  Happy colorful Easter to you all !!
