Healthy Homemade Easter Eggs

 Why would you make your own Easter Eggs?

Well, I can think of several good reasons!

♥ Making your own treats means you know exactly what is in it

♥ Most ‘commercial’ Easter eggs are very high in refined sugar, contain a lot of nasty additives and hydrogenated vegetable oils and also palm oil (which while is okay for our health is not so good for our orangutans)

♥ Homemade stuff always tastes better (yep, it’s the love)

♥ It’s part of the slow food movement – slow down, enjoy making and eating food so it becomes mindful

♥ Homemade takes time and effort – you are less likely to over-indulge in treats if it’s harder to access

Of course, we don’t always have time, so there are other good options out there you can source – organic, fair trade and allergy friendly.

If you do have time, here are some awesome recipes you might like to take a crack at.
