1 Select three different coloured Candy Melts and melt them in the

microwave in separate bowls. Remove your Easter egg from the

wrapping. You may want to place the egg on some greaseproof paper

to prevent your kitchen from getting messy!

1 Measure out some sprinkle decorations and chocolate in two large

bowls. Unwrap the Easter egg from the foil, ready to decorate.

2 Melt the chocolate in short bursts in a heatproof bowl in the

microwave, or set over a saucepan of simmering water.

3 Before the chocolate sets, dip the top of the Easter Egg into the

bowl, covering between a third to half of the Easter egg in the melted

chocolate. This will act as a glue to stick the sprinkles in place.

2 Using a teaspoon, scoop some of the melted chocolate from the bowl

and flick your teaspoon forward and back over the Easter egg, with the

tip of the teaspoon pointing downwards. You may want to practise on

some greaseproof paper before applying to your egg.

3 Repeat the process with the other chocolate colours until you have

created a pattern that you are happy with. Leave the egg to dry; you

could prop it upright on a ramekin to prevent it from rolling away.
