Great idea.
YOU CAN USE ANY FOOD DYE TO DYE THE EGGS ,PAAS NEON DYE , WILTON ICING COLORS OR CONCENTRATED GELS WORK GREAT BUT USE SPARINGLY. IF YOU WANT A MORE PASTEL COLOR. AND USE BOiLING WATER INSTEAD OF COLD WATER | |
10 large | hard boiled eggs |
3 dash(es) | food coloring |
1 c | cold water |
1 tsp | vinegar for each color you are using. |
Blueberries make an excellent blue dye:
Crush blueberries and add a little water to thin the mixture. Pour off the blueberry "juice" from this mixture and add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 1 cup of blueberry liquid. Soak a hard boiled egg until the desired color is obtained.
Grape Juice Dye: A purple-blue color can be obtained from grape juice:
Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 1 cup of grape juice. Soak a hard-boiled egg until the shell is colored.
To dye peeled hard boiled eggs, fill a glass bowl half full of cool water, no vinegar.
Add coloring/dye to reach desired color.
Gently place eggs in water, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
