Building a chocolate house for Easter

We decided rather than the boys giving their teachers a traditional egg for Easter, we would build them a chocolate house each. 1kg of chocolate later (plus some Cadbury mint bubby and mini M & M's into the melted choc batch), on top of plenty more lollies to decorate!!

I must say, it was pretty simple to do, and the kids loved helping and they were very proud to give it to their teachers knowing that they decorated it all by themselves!

All the decorating pieces (chickens, fabric eggs were purchased from a discount store, and the kids handpainted a mould of a bunny for a keepsake)

Piecing it together (I stuck it together with royal icing, but you can do it with more melted chocolate, which looks neater)

                                                   Cant half tell he is a lil bit proud!!!

                                                   All wrapped up ready to give away

   This was the 3rd one we made (for us) and I put this one together with melted chocolate, it did set alot     faster, and looked neater!
