I am so obsessed with deviled eggs that I juts had to make some Sweet Deviled Eggs in my favorite purple color! You know what was the biggest surprise to me when I moved to US? Well, apparently spring doesn’t start on March 1st! In Eastern Europe we look at the seasons a little differently, basically in quarters, spring starts on March 1st and ends on May 31st. It may be cold as hell on March 1st, but the moment I open my eyes and see what day it is, I already feel warmer because in my mind its spring.
Regardless of when you start spring, I think that we are all on the same page waiting for it, so pastel colored foods is what I crave. They are so beautiful and so fun to eat, thats why I decided to make these Sweet Deviled Eggs in my favorite purple color.
Ok, so these Sweet Deviled Eggs are NOT made from real eggs, as you probably noticed, they are made from condensed milk, so yes, that’s purple condensed milk jello. They have the most amazing creamy texture and they are so easy to make, mix, pour and refrigerate! These Sweet Deviled Eggs would be such a fun project to do with kids, you can make them in your favorite color!
The Sweet Deviled Eggs are topped with a creamy lemon buttercream and a few red sprinkles, that I hoped would look like paprika The combination of sweet condensed milk and lemon buttercream is fabulous, such a perfect and easy dessert

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you add sweetness to deviled eggs?
Invert the eggs and cut them in half lengthwise. Transfer the yolks to a bowl and crush them with a fork or a pastry blender until they resemble powder. Whisk together the yolks, mayonnaise, sugar, honey mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Is it better to make deviled eggs day before or day of?
Make Ahead: Deviled eggs can be made up to two days ahead of time. The important thing is to keep the egg whites and yolk filling separate.
How long should eggs boil for deviled eggs?
Hard-boiled eggs are the starting point. Our preferred way is to cover the eggs with water, bring to a boil, and then set aside for about 10 minutes. This produces hard but soft whites and creamy set yolks.
