Making Easter Extra Special

Decorating my handcrafted chocolate eggs is the cherry on top. I love using edible glitter for a sparkly effect, colorful icing for a pop of fun, and sprinkles to make them extra festive.

And let’s not forget about storing them properly! Once my eggs are set, I keep them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This helps maintain their rich flavors and textures, so they’re perfect for gifting (or indulging) whenever I want.
