The most important meal of the day can also be the most fun. Kids will love to get in on the cooking action when they can shape their hard-boiled eggs into rabbit or bear faces. Kotobuki's easy-to-use egg mold works like magic on a just-cooked egg. Place the shelled hard boiled egg into the mold bottom, slowly close the top and secure. Then place egg and mold into cold water for 10 minutes, and voila! Slowly open the mold to reveal an egg with a rabbit or bear face. The mold measures 3 by 3 inches, just right for little hands. It's safe to use with temperatures between -4 degrees F and 248 degrees F. The molds need hand washing for care and make great stocking stuffers, birthday gifts for budding chefs, and presents to brighten any ordinary day.

These egg molds are simple to use and make great looking bear and bunny eggs. Simply boil your eggs, as if making standard hard boiled eggs. The trick is to keep the eggs moving around in the boiling water until they are set to keep the yolks in the center of the egg. If the yolk gets close to the edge of the egg, the egg mold won't make a clean impression. Peel the eggs while still hot, pop into the mold and drop into cold water for 10 minutes.
Easy as pie, and my 5 year old loves them.

These molds are made of quality plastic. They are cute. There are different designs but this pair is the easiest to work on. They are more rounded in shape as compared to the car and fish designs with sharper corners. We recently watched YT videos about bento boxes and it include creating eggs into fun shapes. We couldn't wait to try it. The molds are made in Japan and the instruction is also in Japanese so expect to get the how-to somewhere else.
Make sure not to damage the egg while removing the shell. You have to put it in the mold while still hot. It is impossible to peel it while hot so the trick is too peel it under running faucet. I place the egg in upright position and close it gently. It is OK to have some part of the egg to squeeze out, bigger egg is actually better than a small one to make sure you fill every nook of the mold. Snap the latch and place the egg in the refrigerator for about ten minutes. You can also color the egg if you immerse it into water with food color on it for a few minutes. Really fun, specially if you have kids in the house.

I got a set of these from a friend in Japan.
Medium to large eggs work best for me with these molds.
Boil the eggs as normal and peel them under cool running water to keep from burning your fingers while peeling them. Put the hot, peeled eggs in the molds and snap them shut, then plunge them into a bowl of icy cold water for 5-10 minutes. Then you have adorable shaped eggs. If you add a bit of food coloring to the water you plunge the molds into, you'll tint the eggs slightly and you can emphasize features either with a food coloring marker or with bits of nori or vegetables.
Just adorable, and the perfect thing to pack into children's lunches or even better, into your very macho husband's lunch box as a cute surprise.
So much fun. I know I want more egg molds now.
