Fortune eggs are a fun way to make a beautiful centrepiece for Easter with the added fun of smashing open the eggs to find a fortune inside! Please note that this post may contain affiliate links. For more information about what this means, please click here.
Drain and clean your eggs
Decide on how many eggs you want to make. If using for a display then I would recommend at least six. To drain your eggs, use a pin to pierce a hole in the top and bottom of the egg. Trust me they are very unlikely to break doing this. Then using the pin, chip away at one of the holes to make it large enough to post through a small piece of rolled paper later.
You then need to shake the eggs to get all of the egg white and yolk out. Shaking the egg will break the yolk making it easier to come out as well. Rather than wasting the insides of the eggs, we collected it all in a bowl and then used it to make scrambled eggs for lunch. It is likely that you will get some shell in the eggs so we just sieved the eggs before cooking.
