This is the same review I posted for the heart/star mold combo, because the formula is the same...the size of the egg you need however, differs from mold to mold-I learned the hard way. I had XL eggs which worked GREAT for the heart & star...but for these it created a "smooshy" issue!
The "customer pictures" posted are very accurate to the results you'll get...however, learn from the mistakes from others before you jump into it or you'll be disappointed and/or very irritated. These are SUCH a cute, sturdy & simple product.
My first mistake: I tried to do 18 eggs with 4 molds...not happening. They must be HOT when you put them in the mold...then you shock them in ice water for at least 10 minutes to set up...So doing 4 at a time left me with a problem.
Second: EVERYONE and their brother has a technique. You should read, watch and try all of them, and figure out which one works best for YOU. Think about your comfort zone and your kitchen, tools, etc. beforehand. Don't assume you have to do it ONE certain way. Settle in with some blogs and You-Tube videos, there's plenty out there!
I've personally found that BAKING the eggs (350 for 30 min) automatically separates the shell & the inner membrane from the egg while cooking. When you take them out, these eggs peel like nothing I've ever seen. The caveat(you know there has to be one), the baking process leaves brown spots from the oven on some of the eggs.
Well have no fear, the internet is here! The solution: Food Coloring in the water! (Again-so simple) Now you have green and pink and blue and any color you want...cute, attractive to your kids, and it's still a natural & healthy snack.

Tons of fun, works great with steamed rice too!
These are a fun kitchen accessory. I've ended up using them more to mold steamed rice rather than eggs, and they work very well- the rice doesn't stick, and they wash easily on the top/utensil rack of the dishwasher. The hinge and latch are sturdy and well made. No complaints at all!

so my sister and i are in our 20's, but we're still kids at heart. so when i got her this set she was super excited b/c she loves bunnies. well, she really enjoyed the final product (i'm going to post a pic), and i must say, looking at the picture she sent me made me want to buy a set for myself! the eggs were REALLY cute!! she said that she followed the directions from the other commenters on this site and she messed up on the first egg, but then everything went perfectly. she said that the eggs were easy to mold and that they held up nicely (that is, until she ate them haha). i told her to bring down the molds next time she comes to visit me so that i can try them out on my hardboiled eggs as well (and i may update my post then).
i would recommend getting this set if you want to make your eggs cute :] and if you make lunch for someone, this will definitely put a smile on their face :]!!!
