And the trick is not to watch anyone eat them. :) I send them to the boutique downstairs and never see them again. Except for the ones that get broken, which I spent a chunk of Saturday morning salvaging. Hopie - Happy Easter to you, too... next week. Ann - I love praline, too. I learned about "friture" at Christmas, when I was given a stack of little Santa and tree molds and told to make the friture. I must have looked as confused as I felt, because the explanation followed very shortly. Betty - I think the traditional American Easter preparations are a little more fun for kids - dyeing eggs, the hunt... while the French stuff is a little less interactive. Pretty, though. Sam - The octopus was the boss' pet project this year. He was very proud of himself for having come up with it. :) pastrychef - They are, indeed! Yes, crafts are fun, but not for a month straight. I commented to one of my colleagues that if I wanted to do this kind of thing every day, I would have been a grade school art teacher. Easter is happier than ever this year. Kim – Exactly.

French Easter chocolate really is the best, especially the little eggs filled with praline (much better than peanut butter). Did you know all the little chocolate-shaped fish are called "friture"? Just like the plates of mixed fried fish you get at the seaside. Isn't that cute?

It all depends on where you start from doesn't it? Your sculptues are great - don't know how you can bear to watch anyone eat them.
