Sugar Easter Eggs

To make the Sugar Egg  I used a Taste of Home Recipe for a guide (or download here Sugar Easter Egg).  I used their recipe for the egg, which consisted of:

3 tablespoons water

food coloring

4-1/2 cups sugar

I put all the ingredients in a ziplock bag and mixed up really well and then pressed into an egg mold, turned over on wax paper.  I cut the ends off equally.  I let dry for a few hours then carefully scooped out the centers.  Instead of putting in the oven as the recipe calls for I just let them air dry for a couple of days.

I made the royal frosting with meringue powder.  I followed the recipe that came with the powder.
