Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hi Group! I am wondering about Easter Eggs. I've decided that I will do natural dyes from food sources but am concerned about the vinegar- will it leach into the eggs? Will we still be able to consume our Easter Eggs or do I need to decorate some for hiding and then toss them- I hate to be wasteful. Can apple cider vinegar be used to dye eggs or does it have to be distilled white vinegar? thanks for any feedback! -Sara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
