Put 2 or 3 jelly bird eggs in each nest and put in the fridge to harden. These are a tradition in our family, very addictive I must say

Originally Posted By Kala Cadbury creme eggs and mini eggs are my favorite with the reeses peanut butter eggs a close second. My favorite from my childhood are the malted eggs, (not whoppers, gross>), that leave a white film on your lips. Of couse my favorite time is after Easter when the candy goes on sale! Here in WA we have stores called Stupid Prices a liquidation store chain that buys a lot of stuff from Costco. Last year i found 3lb bags of Cadbuty mini eggs for $1.50! I think I still have some in the candy tin. :9
