Easter Wishes and Cupcakes!

Happy Easter everyone!

Remember how I said that I made cupcakes yesterday? Well I thought I should show you how they turned out. We made both bunnies and chicks. The bunnies look a bit strange in my opinion, but they're still amazingly cute!

The Bunny Cupcake:
To make this you'll need:
Sweetened coconut
Large marshmallows for ears (cut in small round sections)
Pink Sprinkles for coloring
Blue Smarties for eyes
Pink chocolate wafer for nose (cut to make triangles)
Small marshmallows for cheeks
Thin black licorice for whiskers.

Just roll an iced cupcake in the coconut and add features as you like. The whiskars are shoved into the cupcake rather than glued on with icing for our cupcakes; we found they stayed on longer. Extra frosting may be needed to hold some stuff on. (we learned that the hard way...)

The Chick Cupcake

To make this you'll need:
Sweetened coconut
Yellow food coloring
Brown Smarties for eyes
Orange baking gummies for beak

Dye the coconut with the food coloring and roll an iced cupcake to coat. Cut the gummies into halves for the beak. Add features as you'd like. Extra frosting may be needed for this as well.

So once again, hope everyone has a safe, fun and Happy Easter.
Until next time,
Live, Laugh, Love,
-Missy A
