REPIN Jell-O Easter Eggs

When I saw these beautiful Easter eggs from Choose to Thrive I knew I had to give them a try!  I didn’t have the egg molds so I was able to use dollar store plastic eggs to make these and it worked perfectly!

I used plastic eggs from the dollar store and a plastic syringe to get the Jell-O into the eggs (you can also get them at the pharmacy, the one I use is for measuring medicine).

Tips For the Perfect Jello Easter Eggs

Here are some tips for making these turn out great:

  • Do not use a knife to put holes in your plastic eggs… (the knife can easily slip through the plastic unexpectedly…  trust me on this!)
  • Oil the inside of the eggs VERY well so they come out easily
  • Place the egg upside down and fill it from the larger end.  If you have any air bubbles they will be at the bottom of your egg when you’re done.
  • You can mix all of your Jell-O with boiling water at the beginning if you choose.  Do not add the yogurt until right before you are ready to pour that layer, it hardens quickly.
  • Run the egg under hot water for a few seconds before taking them out of the molds
  • Make a couple more than you plan on needing, a couple of them may split apart while you perfect the “unmolding”.

I used plastic eggs from the dollar store.  My eggs did have tiny holes on each end…  in order to get the Jell-O into the eggs, I had to make the hole bigger on one side so I just twisted a pair of scissors into the hole to make it a bit bigger.  Do not use a knife to do this…  I am speaking from experience.
