> I'm doing experiments in edible egg decor after an inspirational pysanky class.  Ukranian pysanky egg dyes are not safe to eat, but did the process work with non-toxic dyes?  I've been painting designs on eggs in wax, soaking them in black tea, then removing the wax from the outsides, holding it up next to a candle and wiping off the melted wax, leaving white designs on the shells.  So labor-intensive, so impressive.  If there's anybody you need to impress, go for it!

Does anyone know anything about period egg dyes? Certain period dyes (like
onionskin) would be edible.
