 We have spent a few days working on our famous St Luke's Easter eggs available for sale in time for Easter - March 31, April 7 and 14th.  These are all handcrafted, delicious fondant centre with the finest Belgian chocolate coating and for sale at the same price as last year - $6 for one and 5 for $25.  We know you will love them if you haven't tried them before.  

 It all starts at the mixing bowl with the best ingredients, and can get a bit messy with all that icing sugar flying. 






Hand molded into into the proper oval shape and that is no yolk!



We were pleased to have some of our alumni return to do the chocolate coating and packaging today. 





How did that chocolate get there?






A few little tasty rewards after the work is done and the eggs are coated!
Well  deserved, don't you think, after making and chocolating eggs-actly 327 eggs!  





Our supervisor Kerry watches over our day's work.  She generously comes each session we use chocolate in our eggs or our bark to guide and direct us in the proper temperatures and applications.  There are ways to work with chocolate to provide a superior finished product.  





Final packaging and ready for sale.  Starting March 31.  



When the day was done, and before we cleaned up the chocolate from the counters, the floor, the cupboards,(and from our faces where telltale signs of snacking was evident) we took some time for a group picture, very proud of our good work!  It was a very egg-hausting day, but so much fun and certainly team building.
