Product Description


paas emptied eggs

Empty your eggs if you want to keep them for a long time and bring them out to display year-after-year. You can also strengthen your decorated eggs by covering them with layers of paper towels or similar paper stuck on with white glue or homemade flour-and-water paste.

  • MAKE A HOLE with a pin or needle in the fat end of a raw egg.
  • WIGGLE THE NEEDLE around or use a nail to create a slightly larger hole. (Should be about ¼ ” across, or about the size of a pencil eraser.)
  • MAKE A SECOND HOLE in the opposite end of the egg. (This hole can be much smaller.)
  • BREAK THE YOLK by inserting the needle into the egg. (this makes it easier to remove the egg).
  • USE A BABY’S NOSE ASPIRATOR, or simply your mouth, to blow into the small hole to remove the egg yolk and egg white into a large bowl.
  • RUN WATER INTO THE EGGSHELL, after the yolk has been removed, shake it to rinse the insides well, and pour it out.

Hard Cooked vs. Emptied Eggs

Hard-cooked eggs are best when you want a sturdy egg for hiding and when you want to eat them when you’re done. They are also easier for younger children to handle.

  • PLACE eggs in saucepan large enough to hold them in single layer
  • ADD cold water to cover eggs by 1 inch
  • HEAT over high heat just to boiling
  • REMOVE from burner
  • COVER pan
  • LET EGGS STAND in hot water about 15 minutes for large eggs (12 minutes for medium eggs; 18 minutes for extra large)
  • DRAIN immediately and serve warm. OR, cool complete-ly under cold running water or in bowl of ice water
  • REFRIGERATE

I bought a version of this at the grocery store and was pleasantly surprised. The color pads release a vivid, strong pigment. Each cup comes with two fill lines - one for the vinegar, the other for the water. It was extremely easy to set up. When dying time came, the colors adhered amazingly and didn't take ages. A few minutes at most for the darkest shade of dye. I would recommend using your own crayon to draw on the eggs if you go that route as it was difficult to see the clear crayon included. Highly, highly recommend.
