Yes, we used to get them for Easter. This was probably in the late 50’s.

They are called sugar eggs and you can still buy them at Michaels and other places as well. I used to make them when I was a teenager and also when my kids lived at home.
They are made in a mold with very fine sugar and water and decorated with royal icing. I would make them and my daughter who can really decorate cakes and things would pipe the icing and decorate them for me.

I used to get them too. Would have been in the late 60's.
I see that you can make them if you search online.
Thanks for bringing back a nice memory!!

It looks like one company (Blumchen & Company) posted on their website that their manufacturer was purchased by a larger candy company and the new owner decided not to continue making the sugar eggs as of 2018.

Yes, I absolutely remember them! The Easter Bunny always left a beautiful one in the baskets that he brought me! I still have a tiny one in a box with some Easter decorations. Do they not make them anymore? The peek inside the egg added to the fantasy of the day and made the day that much more special. That bunny was very very good to me!

@Kachina624 I was wondering the same.
@roxxy1. Perhaps decorating them is too labor intensive?

Yes, my mom also made this type of eggs...I have a few of them and they still look like new on the outside, on the inside a couple of things have come loose, but I still get them out every year.

These are too pretty. One needs great skills to decorate like this.
