This is such a cute idea and would make and Valentines lunch-box or salad a little bit special and leave your Valentines amazed at how you did it.
To make a heart shaped boiled egg, you will need...
a hard boiled egg - freshly cooked.
A section of milk carton cardboard about the size of a postcard, washed and dried.
A chopstick.
Two elastic bands.
First shell the egg and rinse off any odd bits of shell.
Pop the egg into the milk carton making sure that the fold of the carton is at the bottom.
Then rest your chopstick along the top the the egg and fix an elastic band on the end. do the same to the other end. Its a good time now to arrange the chopstick so that it is nicely central in the egg and will create a pleasing heart shape.
Now put the egg in the fridge for an hour to cool and shape.
Take the egg out of its card and cut in half - Impressive no?
