Celebrate Easter With Themed Baking Ideas

Planning on baking some sweet Easter treats for the family? Or even better, are you hosting an Easter party? Why not spend time with friends and family by doing some homemade baking this year!

Our 5 Favourite Easter Baking Ideas

Bake and Decorate Egg-Shaped Cookies 

One of the simplest Easter baking ideas? Try making egg-shaped cookies! It’s as easy as making cookie dough, rolling it out, and using an egg-shaped cookie cutter to cut out your cookies. Put those in the oven to bake accordingly. Then, use coloured frosting to decorate as you wish.

Easter Bunny-Eared Cupcakes

For something a little more involved, yet still delicious and fun, try this Easter cupcake idea. Since the Easter bunny is a staple for the holiday, incorporate the bunny into your cupcakes. You’ll need to fill cupcake cases with your favourite flavour of batter and whip up your favourite buttercream frosting.  Then, use marshmallows and cut them in half at an angle. You can also round off the tips of the marshmallows so they look like little bunny ears. On the cut side, use edible glitter to decorate. Then, simply place two ears on each cupcake. 

Create Pretty Easter Bark

If you’re looking for something chocolate-y, yet still inspired by spring, then making an Easter bark is a great option. It involves using melted chocolate and spreading it out on a baking sheet. Then, you can add just about any other type of sweet or chocolate you want to decorate it. Use chocolate eggs and sprinkles. You can also melt white chocolate, add food colouring in pastel colours, and swirl that into your melted dark chocolate. Put in the oven and let it bake until it hardens. 

Use the Easter Bunny’s Favourite Ingredient

If you want an Easter bunny-inspired treat, without using the Easter bunny, then get inspired with its favourite ingredient – carrots. Anything from carrot cake with a cream cheese frosting to a carrot cupcakes is a great way to celebrate the Easter holiday. 

Spring-Coloured Easter Baking Decorations

Just like with the interior of your home, baking can involve plenty of decorations. To make sure you keep up with the theme, stick to springtime colours in your baking decorations. Think of pastels, baby pink or blue, lilac, mint green, and pale yellow colours in your frosting, sprinkles, and other sweets you’re using to decorate. You can also decorate with small cupcake toppers that include rabbit motifs and more.
