As a german I can tell you that these coloured eggs are indeed a regular item in the shelves of the supermarkets here. Although it wasn't until a couple of years ago that you would see them being sold over the whole year. When I was a kid, you would only get these around easter. The colour is just food colouring, which might look weird to someone who never saw an egg like this before, but it does nothing to the taste. I have no clue though, if this is a big market or not (big as in "the company producing them earns a lot of money with it"). His pricing was ludicrous though. You can get a 10-pack at Aldi for 1,89€ (~1,66 GBP). Paying the same price for just 2 eggs is insane.
I mean, here we mostly color them at home for Easter, and it costs me around a dollar for a dozen eggs and 2 for food coloring that lasts for several hundred eggs
I paint them myself on Easter but during the year of I want eggs for lunch I buy them. Too bad he didn't do more research he would've proven that they're comon in Austria and Germany so Brits would get used to them as well
@CreativeHandle I am not sure if u will ever get these in the US… eggs in the US have to be washed and refrigerated … and actually the whole process could be different, coz we don’t wash or refrigerated eggs in Germany
I love Touker's face. He always looks totally grossed out by anything edible...and everything else as well. You know he is thinking 'WTF is this pile of nonsense coming closer?'

@@SpecialWiener ??? im German, and i live here for over 29 Yrs now .. and we sell hard boiled eggs in EVERY Discounter :D especially at the easter time, you can get them colored, hard boiled 10 eggs for like 1.50€ .. after Easter the big packages leave, and youll find them 6 egg versions of it, which are a bit more pricey ... but hard boiled eggs, are normal for AGES in Germany, and that in East, WEst, North or South Germany .. EVERYWHERE
It's a bloody egg. You can boil one while you make a cup of tea. Most people have eggs in their homes. Not everyone has BLT or Chicken/Stuffing in their fridge. People definitely would buy this as a snack but it wouldn't take long for it to clock in their customers minds that they could get 3x the amount for half the price if they spend literally 5 mins cooking at home.
@@Andrew-pd6ey Well, like Nick, said, it's even easier and cheaper to buy and slice an apple, yet people still pay the 5x markup for pre-sliced apples. Hell, you don't even need to slice the apple, just eat it. So there is a market for instant convenience. It takes more effort to boil an egg than to slice an apple, so if pre-sliced apples will sell, so will pre-boiled eggs.

There’s no such thing as ‘ethical’ eggs, it’s a euphemism. It’s like saying ‘ethical’ concentration camp, ‘ethical’ slavery, ‘ethical’ child labour. Not only that but All eggs and hens in the egg industry all came from the same suppliers, and when the chicks are hatched and sexed the male chicks being economically garbage to them, are killed immediately by being dumped fully conscious into a high speed grinder. So all the male siblings of those ‘ethical’ hens laying ‘ethical’ eggs were still ground up fully alive and conscious.
This has been sold in Germany for decades now. Firstly over Easter, for some years all year. Many of the pitches sell things that are completely normal in continental Europe.
Yeah, in Serbia this is an Easter tradition and has been for literal centuries. Before food coloring was a thing people used stuff like red onion peels and various green veggies to dye the eggs red and green (and the color bleeds into the egg that way as well).
And when all the neckbeards sniping from their mums' basements have rescued a company from receivership, built it up to massive success and sold it for £50 million, then they'll be in a position to criticise her.
I can’t stand how out of touch these people are - have they never eaten a boiled, dyed egg at Easter? Sometimes the dye bleeds through into the egg exactly like that. Granted, it means there were cracks, which most likely means the shelf life is shorter than advertised. Why does Peter have to be so rude?
out-of-touch indeed. I agree 💯 ☝️. _the higher he sits on the hog, the mud below becomes nothing more than a memory-soon-forgotten. the fall to which becomes all the more interesting, all the more messy._
I can't believe she made that big of a deal about a miniscule amount of FOOD DYE on her FOOD. I mean apparently she's from the dark ages and has never eaten anything processed ever. And the other dragon is absolutely correct that people will pay 10 times the value of something because it's convenient.
@@alexwright2302 I completely agree. They often blow things out of proportion. Nobody would buy something and throw it out because there was a bit of dye on the egg.
@@alexwright2302 Not defending her position BUT I'd imagine an scenario where the dye isn't a safe or recommended to eat product and having a bleed through the shell. I mean the shell isn't "made" to be eaten, (I'm exaggerating here) why would you use safe to eat dye on something that adds nothing to the edible product?
I live in Austria and people here absolutely love these coloured eggs, all year round, not only for Easter. And all the political parties buy thousands of them for Easter in their party's colour with the logo and hand them out. That was really a huge opportunity that the dragons missed out on.
Totally. I thought it's weird. Than I felt like a hard boiled egg during my lunch break, bought one and definitely bought it more often after that. They just didn't get that it's lunch food.
@@briangerard2145 yes the price is high. I just googled they cost 37 cents per egg here in a 4 pack and that's the own brand but not the cheap one the cheap ones cost 25 cents per egg in a 6 pack. They all come with a little package of salt. Perfect for lunch breaks
a German here .. no it isnt useless ... we sell mostly 10 egg Packages around Easter Time ... after Easter we go down to the 6 egg Packages .. and people buy it like crazy, because .. you can store them for a longer time, without waiting the time were you usually boil them ... so peoples laziness / or time is worth their money... so no its not just good for Easter ( which is the biggest time of sales)
Lol same here in the Netherlands. It's for Easter here. Easter starts early and ends late, just as Christmas and other holidays where they want to urn money on. 😂😂
@@leenobody3249 no the USP was that the eggs have a longer shelf life due to the coating. The colour isn't particularly significant and actually ruins the aesthetic.
I agree - eggshell coloured paint would make it look natural and yet provide the same shell-sealant protection that he was looking for - I’m surprised no-one at least asked that question (unless edited out).
@@leenobody3249 Did you even watch the video? Deborah specifically said she was out because it didn't look like an egg. Why he didn't just say "We can paint them white" to that is the part I don't get.
I find it funny that some of the dragons acted like they've never colored eggs before for Easter. Don't think he has a bad product, just perhaps a tad overpriced.
yeah the guy couldve done more digging into the german company, but his pitch was poised and he did actually keep his cool really well, if anything he made it look over-easy
To answers Peters's question regarding the German price tag: it's usually ~ 1,50 € per 6-pack. And that's almost the same pricing as for fresh eggs in a 6-pack. So Peter is right for "you cannot sell that for 5-times-the-price of a normal egg. NOTE that we talk about "industrial" eggs here ... not Bio eggs fresh from the farmer.
They only eat chocolate eggs here in the UK, but majority of the EU countries especially in the Eastern and Middle EU paint their eggs and its absolutely normal to have a coloured egg inside, even when you paint it in the most natural ways (for example onion)
They are sold everywhere in Germany. I would find it a good idea for selling in vending machines in stations and universities and places like that. A good healthy snack to fill your stomach for a while. But I like to have some salt with that as well.
Instead of saying nATuRal he could use food grade paint/dye. Essentially the same stuff used in m&ms. Because at the end of the day uranium is natural and you definitely don't want to eat that.
Coloured eggs do not look natural. Nick is right that there is a market. I'm surprised that Sarah Willingham, who spent a year in Japan, did not mention that boiled eggs are sold in convenience stores and supermarkets. Japan has an advantage in that there are different flavoured eggs. For example, eggs that have been boilt in 'oden' broth etc which are traditional and familiar to all. Instead of colouring the eggs, Rob should be looking towards selling different flavoured eggs.
Rob was our neighbor when this aired, we knew he was on Dragon's Den but we didn't know how it went! Fair to say we watched through the gaps in our fingers, but if you thought this was brutal, he told us during filming he was being ripped into so badly one of them had to step in and be like "Guys, calm down." He was actually doing very well last time we spoke, so jokes on the Dragon's I guess? (Also the puns in the comments are golden!)
I like the idea not sure why they acted like it was totally ridiculous but I agree the colours could be a bit off putting. Either something could be done to educate the public on the look or change the colours. I'm not saying it will definitely be a huge success but 🤷🏽♀️
Im German. Theyve been selling those eggs here for as long as I live. No one cares about the eggs being a bit discolored. I never knew they werent a thing in other countries lol. We actually dont have normal hard boiled eggs without coloring. But theyre a lot cheaper here than that guy is offering, just a few cents more than if you just got fresh non boiled non colored eggs
All he had to do was coat them in pearly white or gold he could sell sealed, extended freshness premium eggs instead he went third-world birthday party basic colors
well, he "copied" what he saw in Germany (I'm German and I can commit that this kind of eggs is sold for decades here), and there they are colored right that way (that colors). He obviously underestimated that this seems rather odd for the people in UK (which surprises me either).
I live in Germany and we have the colored eggs and they are delicious perfect texture love them, also I’m assuming that in the uk they color eggs during Easter too. When those eggs are dyed sometimes in fact almost always the egg white gets color on it I never knew that was considered disgusting. All I can say is if those eggs are like the ones in Germany they are better than any egg I’ve made myself, like I really can’t stress how amazing and perfect they are.
@@Jehannum2000 not even on Easter? Is it not common to eat hard boiled eggs in Britain? You buy it for lunch. It's popular in Austria as well. They're colored just like those
problem is also, that this egg is now cold af, so im going to have to spend time warming it up anyway. Think loads of people would want their egg warm.
Have Deborah and Sarah never dyed Easter Eggs with their Children? Cause yes, after dying sometime the dye leaks through and goes on the egg. It's not a big problem as they made it to be. But cool idea to prolong shelf life. My store down the road always has boiled eggs. By the end of the day, the basket is empty, so peeps here are for sure eating boiled eggs. Recently at 7-11 they sell a two-pack, without the shell. Ready to eat. That too been selling a lot. Cool idea. Gonna try and ask my friends at the store down the road to dye some eggs and see if people still buy them. I would. I love Easter. I love colors. 😁😁😁
Yes m8. In the end, they aren't horrible people; if you're product is good but your business prospects bad, they'll tell it to you and give good advice. But there are loads of sly scammers out there that put on the cute face but know how to exploit their way upwards; to an extent. They deserve no mercy and deserve to be shamed and heckled in there. Surprised they're even daft enough to waddle in!
I think this set of dragons is the best set for 'advice giving' for example: with other combinations like Duncan is likeable but he offers very little advice, Tej is also pretty minimal with his advice, Jenny...well we know what she offers
He was right though...these eggs are sold in Germany, sold in packs of 8 or 12..go to ANY pr most grocery stores(lebensmittel) ALDI-SÜD/LIDL/EDEKA! They are a HUGE hit, and cheap, same price as normal, unboiled eggs
Not sure I get people making a fuss over the eggs having dye on them. It makes me think they never dyed eggs for Easter. The shells often crack and the egg gets a bit of dye in the cracks.. You eat it. It's just food coloring.
Peter: "you crack me up" *looks around to see who laughed at his joke*

That sultry sideways glance from Sarah at 4:00! 😌 Sorry I've been in lockdown way too long! 😓
2:02 He abandons the poor chicken in the fake lift..
I CALLED PETA
bitterman co I agree.
Most free range chicken ever went all the way to the BBC
Actually, the egg came LONG before there were chickens...
He has a point because when I do go and pick a sandwich the colours put me off
Specially purple.
Coloured eggs do not look natural. Nick is right that there is a market. I'm surprised that Sarah Willingham, who spent a year in Japan, did not mention that boiled eggs are sold in convenience stores and supermarkets. Japan has an advantage in that there are different flavoured eggs. For example, eggs that have been boilt in 'oden' broth etc which are traditional and familiar to all. Instead of colouring the eggs, Rob should be looking towards selling different flavoured eggs.
This can work imo if they come with some sauces to eat with (like some mayo, ketchup, etc)
3:15 Deborah- "Mine's got some sort of rather unpleasant red dye all over it."
Her phony confusion is cringe worthy!
🤣🤣🤣
Rob was our neighbor when this aired, we knew he was on Dragon's Den but we didn't know how it went! Fair to say we watched through the gaps in our fingers, but if you thought this was brutal, he told us during filming he was being ripped into so badly one of them had to step in and be like "Guys, calm down." He was actually doing very well last time we spoke, so jokes on the Dragon's I guess? (Also the puns in the comments are golden!)
Doing well selling these eggs or doing well doing something else?
But it is a useless idea? There isnt a different flavour or something interesting.
I like the idea not sure why they acted like it was totally ridiculous but I agree the colours could be a bit off putting. Either something could be done to educate the public on the look or change the colours. I'm not saying it will definitely be a huge success but 🤷🏽♀️
He sounds like a total sweetheart, I'm glad to hear he's prospering
How is this business now?
I love this idea. Absolutely love it. A colour that spilled a bit over the white is nothing, i would eat it twice faster. Love it.
I love how he introduces Pepper and then says “We would....” it’s so cute. I’d invest just for Pepper.
I cant wait for lockdown to end so we can see more DRAGON'S DEN clips.
Cracking pitch 👌
The problem is with the color, they need to be a soft pastel
are you kidding me, it took five seconds for the narrator to make a joke, thats a record
Surely you mean 'yolk' ?
Im German. Theyve been selling those eggs here for as long as I live. No one cares about the eggs being a bit discolored. I never knew they werent a thing in other countries lol. We actually dont have normal hard boiled eggs without coloring. But theyre a lot cheaper here than that guy is offering, just a few cents more than if you just got fresh non boiled non colored eggs
For a moment I thought Nick was going to make an offer but in the end he chickened out
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Toucker's face on seeing the entrepreneur walk in chicken in hand, lol.
All he had to do was coat them in pearly white or gold
he could sell sealed, extended freshness premium eggs
instead he went third-world birthday party basic colors
well, he "copied" what he saw in Germany (I'm German and I can commit that this kind of eggs is sold for decades here), and there they are colored right that way (that colors).
He obviously underestimated that this seems rather odd for the people in UK (which surprises me either).
Good comment
Perfect thumbnail, a hero shot of king Koopa toooooooooka
I live in Germany and we have the colored eggs and they are delicious perfect texture love them, also I’m assuming that in the uk they color eggs during Easter too. When those eggs are dyed sometimes in fact almost always the egg white gets color on it I never knew that was considered disgusting. All I can say is if those eggs are like the ones in Germany they are better than any egg I’ve made myself, like I really can’t stress how amazing and perfect they are.
I think it was because the red seeping through looked like veins? Other colors are probably fine..
I live in the UK and have never seen coloured eggs at Easter or any other time. We have hollow chocolate Easter eggs.
@@Jehannum2000 not even on Easter? Is it not common to eat hard boiled eggs in Britain? You buy it for lunch. It's popular in Austria as well. They're colored just like those
problem is also, that this egg is now cold af, so im going to have to spend time warming it up anyway. Think loads of people would want their egg warm.
Pizza Jones my dudes
The way Deborah looks at the red egg he gave her😂 she looked so confused bless her
Dragons: Shows a chicken in the thumbnail
Me: Hey yo wtf
4:00 that look she gave him😂
Have been living in switzerland for 16 years and always seen these eggs. I assumed they are all over europe because I see them in france too.
Same in Austria and Germany. Apperently others only sell them on Easter
'A pimped convenience'.
Nice one, Peter!
😄😄😄👍👍
Have Deborah and Sarah never dyed Easter Eggs with their Children? Cause yes, after dying sometime the dye leaks through and goes on the egg. It's not a big problem as they made it to be. But cool idea to prolong shelf life. My store down the road always has boiled eggs. By the end of the day, the basket is empty, so peeps here are for sure eating boiled eggs. Recently at 7-11 they sell a two-pack, without the shell. Ready to eat. That too been selling a lot. Cool idea. Gonna try and ask my friends at the store down the road to dye some eggs and see if people still buy them. I would. I love Easter. I love colors. 😁😁😁
Deborah doesnt have children.
@@BrownBrown270 OH yeah. I don't know how I forgot that. Thanks for reminding me. 😁
Rich people don't eat eggs they drink infant blood
It looks like he's gonna cry he faced the harsh reality in there
Yes m8. In the end, they aren't horrible people; if you're product is good but your business prospects bad, they'll tell it to you and give good advice.
But there are loads of sly scammers out there that put on the cute face but know how to exploit their way upwards; to an extent. They deserve no mercy and deserve to be shamed and heckled in there. Surprised they're even daft enough to waddle in!
I love his joke at the end "I didn't crack at all"
After getting blasted he resorted to cracking jokes 😂
Ok so how did the chicken press the lift button 😂😂🐔clucking mad🤣🤣🤣
I think this set of dragons is the best set for 'advice giving' for example: with other combinations like Duncan is likeable but he offers very little advice, Tej is also pretty minimal with his advice, Jenny...well we know what she offers
Deborah: Ewww my egg is red
* slavic people cringing *
Egg came first actually, but you do you, weird egg painting man
nope, the chicken came first. There had to be a creature in the first place that was able to produce an egg at all.
@@geofreyr Yup ,but many creatures existed before the chicken that laid eggs, so the egg did come first
He was right though...these eggs are sold in Germany, sold in packs of 8 or 12..go to ANY pr most grocery stores(lebensmittel) ALDI-SÜD/LIDL/EDEKA! They are a HUGE hit, and cheap, same price as normal, unboiled eggs
Poor fella, the "betting the house on it" comment made me cringe. Hope he's okay financially. Farming is no easy gig.
This is actually a thing in east and south east countries, they sell it at the convince store but they’re not painted. That just looks gross.
I was expecting the chickens lay they colourful eggs
Not sure I get people making a fuss over the eggs having dye on them. It makes me think they never dyed eggs for Easter. The shells often crack and the egg gets a bit of dye in the cracks.. You eat it. It's just food coloring.
