Easter Egg Project 2009 This year we made 3,364 candy eggs in a variety of flavors, the most popular flavor is peanut butter. We start in January-March to get them all made and ready for sale about a month before Easter. It is a very big project to make that many eggs. We work in shifts on different days, because some us of work outside the home while others are retired. The first crew is during the daytime, they make the flavored fondant centers and form them to look like an egg. Then they are placed in a very cool place till the next day when the 2nd crew does the dips them in chocolate and trims the eggs. Again they are placed in the cool place for the 3rd crew, who is usually an evening shift that decorates the eggs with colored flowers or shapes, the color represents what flavor the egg is. Last but not least, the 4th crew completes the process by wrapping the eggs in seran wrap. Then it is time to sell all the eggs. This year we sold most of the eggs by taking personal orders to fill.
