Your kids are going to have a blast making these Whipped Cream Dyed Eggs for Easter! They turn out so colorful and my boys had so much fun making them.
We have spotted this idea using shaving cream, but think using whipped cream seems a bit safer to use on something edible.

Whipped Cream Dyed Eggs
- Hard Boiled Eggs
- 1 container of Whipped Cream
- Neon Food Coloring
- Vinegar
- Toothpicks
- Disposable Gloves
Directions
Place your eggs in a large pot and fill it with water to cover the eggs. Add a couple of teaspoons of salt to the water. Bring it to a boil. Turn the heat off once it starts to boil and place a lid on top. Let them sit for 5 minutes. Drain and add the eggs to ice cold water to cool. This method is great for easy peeling.
Soak the eggs in vinegar for about 10 minutes…
Add your whipped cream to a cookie sheet…
Spread the cream to cover the entire pan…
Mix 2 Tablespoons on vinegar into each color you decide to use. We used gel food coloring. Add dots of the coloring on the top of the whipped cream leaving an inch in between like this…
Swirl the colors using a toothpick or a knife…
Ours looked like this…
Dry off your eggs that were soaking in the vinegar. Then roll the eggs in the whipped cream like this…
My 6 year old just did one roll then swirled it around a bit with his fingers. Let them sit for 30 minutes then wash them off with water.
Dry with a paper towel. Check them out…so cool!!
Here is a close up…
You could always get creative and make stripes, change colors, etc…
My 6 year old LOVED doing this and we hope you have fun with your kids as well!
