Plastic Easter Egg Mould

The Easter Eggs Chocolate Mould 8 Hole is a handy baking and confectionery tool for making your own chocolate Easter eggs, filled chocolate treats and seasonal decorations. Featuring eight individual egg-shaped cavities, this reusable plastic chocolate mould makes it easy to create beautifully shaped Easter chocolates with a neat, consistent finish.

Made from food-safe plastic, the mould is designed for working with melted chocolate, allowing you to create individual egg halves that can be filled, decorated or joined together to make hollow Easter eggs. Each cavity measures 57mm x 41mm x 16mm, making it a lovely size for smaller chocolate gifts, Easter treat boxes and homemade confectionery.

The mould is also suitable for experimenting with other ingredients, including fondant and gelatine-based creations. Try using milk, dark or white chocolate, adding colourful cocoa butter decorations or filling your finished chocolates with caramel, praline or other sweet fillings.

At i4C, we love the idea of making Easter chocolates from scratch, especially when you can personalise them with different flavours and decorations. This eight-hole Easter egg mould is a great starting point for homemade chocolate gifts, and it's equally useful for creating seasonal treats for bakeries, cafés and Easter dessert displays.

Usage Ideas:

  • Homemade Filled Easter Eggs: Fill each cavity with tempered milk chocolate, allow the shells to set and add a filling of salted caramel or chocolate ganache. Seal with a thin layer of chocolate before carefully removing the finished treats from the mould.
  • Marbled White and Dark Chocolate Eggs: Drizzle a little tempered white chocolate into each cavity, then fill with dark chocolate. Gently swirl the two chocolates together to create a decorative marbled effect, perfect for Easter gift boxes.
  • Mini Hollow Easter Eggs: Coat the cavities with tempered chocolate, allow the shells to set and carefully release them from the mould. Join two matching halves using a little melted chocolate to create small hollow Easter eggs that can be decorated with coloured cocoa butter.
  • Decorative Fondant Easter Eggs: Press coloured fondant into the egg-shaped cavities to create decorative Easter shapes. Once released, use them to decorate celebration cakes, cupcakes or Easter-themed dessert platters.

How do I stop chocolate from sticking to a plastic Easter egg mould?

For the best results, use properly tempered chocolate and make sure the mould is completely clean and dry before filling. Tempered chocolate contracts slightly as it sets, making it easier to release from the plastic. Avoid using excessive force when removing the eggs, as this can cause delicate chocolate shells to crack.

How much chocolate do I need to fill all eight cavities?

Each cavity has an approximate capacity corresponding to 28g of chocolate, so filling all eight completely would require around 224g. If you're making hollow chocolate shells, you'll need considerably less, depending on the thickness of the chocolate. It's worth preparing a little extra to allow for coating and scraping the mould.

How do I make hollow chocolate Easter eggs using this mould?

Pour tempered chocolate into each cavity, then tilt or brush the chocolate around the inside to create an even coating. Remove any excess chocolate and allow the shells to set completely before releasing them. To create a complete hollow egg, gently warm the edges of two matching halves and press them together until joined.
