How to Make Rose Gold Easter Eggs (edible)
Today I am excited to show you how to make these fun Easter eggs in my latest post: How to Make Rose Gold Easter Eggs (edible). Easter eggs are always fun to do no matter what; however, mixing things up from the traditional Easter egg dyeing is also fun. Since I glammed up the Easter table this year, I thought pearly eggs would be fun. However, the only ideas I saw for those involved paint and other items that would make the eggs inedible. How could I resolve this? A couple of different ideas have been running around in my head, and today’s was put to the test. The results were even better and easier than I had hoped. This tutorial is beautiful, easy, and edible!
The key ingredient I relied on here is Wilton’s Food Color Spray. If you do any fancy baked good decorating, then you are familiar with the huge variety of tools out there. A simple misting of color spray adds a pearly glimmer to any baked good. The colors I chose to work with were gold and pearl. Fortunately, my first trial run was an absolute success! Not only did the spray go on the egg in a lovely way, but it dried quickly and had plenty of shimmer. The eggs could also be handled without the spray coming off.

You can generally find food coloring spray at a craft store such as Michael’s or Joann’s or order it online. They have various colors to choose from. A little goes a long way, so one can should be more than enough for a couple dozen eggs. For this post I have several different looks: rose gold, aqua gold, and pearl rose. It’s easy enough to customize this with your own choice of colors and sprays.
Now here is the tutorial.
Supplies needed:
Can of Wilton’s food color spray in pearl or desired shade.
Dyed, hard boiled eggs that are dry.
Lay dyed Easter eggs on paper towel spaced apart. Shake can and lightly spray from about 8 inches away. Spray as much as desired. Let dry a few minutes and turn eggs over. Spray the other side and dry. Store eggs in fridge for use.
Tips:
*When dying your eggs use a single color in varying shades for a monochromatic effect.
*If using a heavier amount of spray allow more time for drying.
Note: I had absolutely no trouble with blotchiness or streaking using these; however, feel free to watch the video below to see how I did it.

Experiment with different looks. It is incredibly easy and fun!
Try using the eggs in a centerpiece such as this one. Here are some Rose Gold Eggs with dried pink flowers in an apothecary vase with faux roses.
Have a beautiful day!
