Galaxy Golden Chocolate Eggs, 80g

Product Information

Fit a large icing bag with a large closed star, or drop flower piping nozzle. I have a Wilton #2D piping nozzle.

The British high-street retailer has been known to sell chocolate treats for sweet-tooth witches and wizards, particularly at Christmas time. I wanted to take the flavours of the Galaxy Golden Eggs and make sure the cupcake complimented the eggs, so I decided on a chocolate cupcake with added caramel. I didn’t add crunchy caramel bits, so they’re not identical to the golden eggs, but I didn’t really fancy crunchy bits in my cupcake, so I went with gooey caramel instead! Start mixing very slowly and then as the butter and icing sugar start to combine increase the mixing speed. Continue until the frosting is light and fluffy. Place the other sponge on top and spread the remaining frosting over it. You can either leave it smooth, or do a pattern. Sift the Crunchie dust over the top of the cake, lightly covering the cake and giving it a shimmering glittery golden look.

Guylian Milk Chocolate Egg with 12 Original Praline Seahorses (306g)

Take the jug of wet ingredients and pour on to the butter mixture. Then add the sifted dry ingredients. This cake is perfectly moist and super light and is the treat you most definitely deserve this Easter! Be a winner and go for gold! Ingredients for the chocolate sponges: The modern tradition of eating chocolate eggs at Easter is a fun, kid-friendly twist on this ancient religious ritual, which originated in Europe during the early-19th century.

I used the standard Galaxy chocolate for the chocolate layer, they also do a darker milk chocolate that you could use instead.A white chocolate for adults bodes well given trends within the wider confectionery market. Retro sweets and sweets for grown-ups provided something of a “kiss of life” for the category ailing after Covid and facing a range of bans on its ability to advertise. I decided to use the light brown sugar rather than caster sugar as the taste of the brown sugar compliments and heightens the caramel/honeycomb flavour that I wanted to have at the forefront of the cake. I did originally have a look around for golden cake glitter, however who would’ve thought that the results of blitzing a Crunchie bar would be even better! The tradition of eating eggs on Easter is tied to Lent, the six-week period before Easter during which Christians traditionally abstained from all animal products, including meat, dairy and eggs. Dairy-free: To make this a recipe for Dairy-free Chocolate Easter Nests, simply use a dairy-free margarine and a dairy-free chocolate (free-from or vegan). Doisy and Dam also make dark chocolate mini eggs that are perfect for the middle of your dairy-free chocolate nests. You can also use shredded wheat if you wish. Although it does give the most nest-like appearance, it’s not one I generally use but the flavour it never quite as good as when you would use cornflakes or rice crispies.
