Eggs are always in the shape of a circle. This is something we are all too familiar with. On the other hand, there are times when you wish they could be moulded into something else. Make some heart-shaped eggs for Valentine’s Day this year and see how they turn out. You’re wondering if it’s even doable. Yes, it is possible, and this may be shocking. If you want to do so, your morning meal with your significant other will undoubtedly be more engaging than any other day of the week. DaveHax on YouTube demonstrates this simple trick that everyone can learn. Be prepared to be startled by the outcome.
Materials:
- Egg
- Pot
- carton of juice that has been emptied
- either a chopstick or a pen
- elastic bands
Directions:
Step one is to cook your egg for 5 to 10 minutes in boiling water, depending on how large it is. After you’re finished, run the pan under cold water to cool it down a bit.
Next, take out an empty juice carton that you had previously rinsed and set it aside. After that, cut around the corners.
The egg should be peeled and placed in the center of the carton once it has cooled down. Then, place the chopstick or pen on the top of the egg. Elastic bands should be wrapped around the cardboard’s edges help to keep it in place. This will cause the chopstick to be pulled down and the egg to begin to be shaped.
Set it aside for a 10 minutes. Then take the egg out by removing the bands.
You now have a lovely heart-shaped egg on your hands. More of these eggs can be made, and then placed in a pretty bowl for a romantic breakfast with your significant other on Valentine’s Day. You may even turn it into a fun activity to do with your children! Take care, though, to ensure that the hard-boiled eggs are handled with care.
