The caramel might not be the candy you were looking for, but it's perfect on the muffins. Your eggs are quite fancy and beautiful.

I invite a few of the neighbors kids who play with Soeren and have a arts and crafts session. We have a competition where the kid that blows the innards of the most eggs wins. But it is not all that bad because they win little presents and get to make tortillas and other egg dishes for dinner. It's a huge lot of fun and I have my easter eggs! This year though I tried something different - I used quail eggs. That was really cool.<BR/>Those muffins look lovely and sticky.Meeta K.
