How to Make a Heart-shaped Boiled Egg

How can something be so adorable?

I'm wondering if the egg has to be cooked til 90%, then you mold it with the chopstick and cardboard, or you just do it when the egg is freshly done, then disassemble the 'scaffolding' after it cools?


Edit:
Okay, mystery solved. I found the website which hosted the above procedure image. Check it out here: http://www.annathered.com/2010/09/29/how-to-make-a-heart-shaped-egg/
To quote the instructions, it mentioned "while the egg is still warm, peel the egg and put the egg on the milk carton". So no re-submerging back into the water, and the cardboard used was actually milk carton board.

Also the same website showed us how to mold hard boiled eggs into cube, pyramid, and other forms. See the tips here!

  2. But then won't the (presumably) cardboard gets soften?
