Which egg technique and design is your favorite? Are you going to try one out? 🐣

[@iamraquelalicea2999]

Thanks for these details ! Super helpful

[@BrittneeKay]

You're welcome, glad you liked it!!

[@bdw4827]

Loved them all but if I had to pick it would have to be the Purple. Great Job! Beautiful creations and you are a fun and informative host for all things delicious videos. Really nice job! And CONGRATES on hitting 2K subscribers

[@BrittneeKay]

Thanks so much!!

[@hayatladdi8181]

Hi thank you so much for your video. I don't understand😂 why are not you tempering the lavande and white chocolate 🤔

[@BrittneeKay]

These are candy melts!

[@gamingjetboy8517]

I like the whole egg, however is it possible to fill the egg before putting the two sides together? Or would that be complicated to have it stand up.

[@BrittneeKay]

Yeah you for sure could! I would prop the bottom onto a clean towel so it doesn’t roll then load it up and glue the other side on!

[@braiwiberg3957]

Love the silver splatter one most. Gonna make it this weekend with pink! 😇

[@BrittneeKay]

Oh I hope you send me a picture of how it turns out!! :D

[@marionkasemire9299]

Hi, Am a chocolate maker I have watched your video I believe the idea of chocolate egg design will be helpful to me as am looking forward to start designing them since we are heading in Easter seasons thank you

[@BrittneeKay]

That's great to hear! Thanks for the comment! :)

[@porschewithnobrakes8565]

I love all 3 designs. Thanks for posting

[@BrittneeKay]

You're so welcome, thanks for watching!! :)

[@lonnibaird9244]

I love the spotted egg! So pretty with the silver splatter! Thank you for the inspiration!

[@BrittneeKay]

Thank you so much!! :)

[@KreativelyMelisa]

Loved this video and all the techniques!!! I am going to try all :)

[@BrittneeKay]

Oh thank you! Oh fun, let me know how it goes!! :)

[@AndyConlin]

That masking tape roll landed perfectly! Did you do that on the first try? 😃

[@BrittneeKay]

Totally did!! 😄

[@elixirforlife4771]

Which chocolate brand do you use

[@BrittneeKay]

For candy melts I use Sweet Toothfairy brand from Michael’s, for compound I use Van Leer, and couverture I use Callebaut 🙂

[@kelsyshaebolinder3983]

Ah! I love them all! If I had to choose I would pick the white with the pastel design but seriously they are all so good!! ❤️

[@BrittneeKay]

Thanks!! That one was so fun to make!

[@marilynnevison]

Will couverture chocolate adhere to the masking tape design egg where you have used candy melts for the design?

[@BrittneeKay]

No it shouldn’t! And you want to peel it off halfway before it’s set. Not too fluid and not fully set or it’ll crack, peel it off just as it’s holding it’s shape

[@marilynnevison]

Thank you for your response. But my question was not about the masking tape but will the candy melt decor adhere to couverture chocolate once set up? I often find that candy melt decor does not stick to couverture chocolate. I believe your egg shell chocolate is also candy melt??

[@BrittneeKay]

@@marilynnevison Oh sorry, I get what you're asking now! ☺ Now that I'm thinking about it...I don't actually thing I have mixed candy melts with couverture chocolate before. So sadly I can't answer your question. If I were doing this type of egg with couverture then I think what I'd do is either use colored white chocolate or cocoa butter! This would be really easy to recreate with cocoa butter, in fact, I may remake this video! :D

[@marilynnevison]

Great I look forward the new technique with Couveture@@BrittneeKay

[@laurieartascos9797]

Hello!I In chocolatier and have been making chocolate for over 40 years. You are not supposed to wash your molds in soap. And the tape you used is it food safety?

[@BrittneeKay]

I like to wash mine with really hot water and soap, though others maybe have different methods and that is ok. :)

[@sherriristow3454]

@@BrittneeKay I have washed mine in real hot water and dawn dish soap and rinse and use soft papers towels to hand dry mind and I agree everyone has there way they clean their candy molds

[@BrittneeKay]

@@sherriristow3454 Totally agree, everybody has their own way for sure! I've seen no washing, soap washing, no soap washing, dishwasher...do what works for you! :)

[@DoreenBertucci-mu8zx]

I loved watching your video. You are very very creative. I would love to try to make the eggs but I don’t think that I would be able to do the designs like you did again, thank you for the video loved it❤

[@BrittneeKay]

Aww thank you! Give it a try, you might surprise yourself! 🤩

[@aviicar100]

should i temper the chockate first?

[@BrittneeKay]

If you're using couverture chocolate you'll need to temper it, if you use candy melts or compound like I did here no need to temper!

[@aviicar100]

@@BrittneeKay thank you

[@BrittneeKay]

@@aviicar100 You're welcome!

[@katierichins110]

I love how shiny they all are! My favorite is the purple one, it could be the color though! ☺️

[@BrittneeKay]

Thanks! Yes sooo good when they’re shiny! I like that purple color as well!

[@sherriristow3454]

Wow the second I will definitely be trying it is very detailed

[@BrittneeKay]

Yay!

You're so welcome! :)

I love the first one Lavender it beautiful design

[@BrittneeKay]

Thank you! 😊

[@karinacantu2495]

Thank You!! I will try to do a dinosaur egg for my 4yr old birthday. To make the silver splatter do you mix the dust with water or little alcohol (vodka). 🙈!! Can't remember!!

[@BrittneeKay]

Oh how fun to do a dinosaur egg, what a cute idea! Yes, I love to mix my edible silver dust with lemon extract! But you can use vodka. Water won't dry as fast so high alcohol is best! And lemon SMELLLS GOOD! :D

[@karinacantu2495]

Thank you!! Love your videos!!

[@BrittneeKay]

@@karinacantu2495 🥰😊

[@karinacantu2495]

@@BrittneeKay i just finished the dino egg it was a success! I think a bit hard to brake but not bad for my first ever!

[@BrittneeKay]

@@karinacantu2495 Yay!! I'm so glad to hear that! Nice work!!

[@alfonsotenreiro9388]

Thanks so much for the tutorial! Would one layer also work?

[@BrittneeKay]

You’re welcome! It depends, if it is pretty thick then one layer would work! As long as you candy see weak spots you should be ok!

[@alfonsotenreiro9388]

Great. I’ll try it tomorrow as long as I find the molds at Johan Fabrics or any other craft store. I just want the egg easier to crack. Thanks again.

[@BrittneeKay]

@@alfonsotenreiro9388 Of course! :)

[@goldentouch5838]

I like the mini mallet

[@BrittneeKay]

hehe me too...very fun to use! :D

[@SallyFunakoshi]

I absolutely love this! Makes me wish I ordered the egg molds sooner 😫 there’s always next year

[@BrittneeKay]

Thanks!! Ugh yes, they were so hard to come by this year I swear!!

[@sherriristow3454]
