Easter Bunny Ice Cubes

If you are looking for some simple ideas for Easter fun, you might want to try making some Easter Bunny ice cubes!

I found this cute ice cube tray at a Dollar Tree store.

If you turn it over you can see the bunny faces more clearly. One side of girl bunnies and one side with boy bunnies…so cute!

I added some red food coloring to some water…

And poured the red water in the girl bunnies side.

…and some blue food coloring in water for the boy bunnies side.

I suggest you put the ice cube tray on a cookie sheet before placing it in the freezer for a couple of hours until the ice cubes are frozen solid.

The ice cube tray is quite bendable which makes it easier to get the ice cubes out of the tray after they are frozen.

That’s all there is to it! Now you have some super cute bunnies to keep your drinks cold on Easter. 😊😃

Flower Candy Pretzel Bites

Happy Good Friday to you! In today’s post, I’ll be sharing a fun food craft that would be really great to share for your Easter celebration! These little “flowers” are so cute and taste so yummy with the combination of sweet and salty.

You need only 3 ingredients…square mini pretzels, white candy melts and a bag of spring colored M&M’s candy.

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Place some pretzels on the cookie sheet. (I started out with a lot of pretzels at one time, but now I think it’s better to do a few at a time so you can keep up with the decorating while the candy is soft.)

The directions I read suggested laying 1 candy melt wafer on each pretzel.

I think it works better if you put 1 1/2 candy wafers on each pretzel.

Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F. While you wait for the oven to heat up, you can sort your M&M’s into like color piles. This will make it easier to find the same color faster.

Once the oven is warm enough, place the cookie sheet in the oven for about 3 minutes. The candy just needs to soften so you can put the M&M’s on the pretzels. I found it helpful to use a small spatula to spread the warm candy on the pretzel.

When the candy is softened, place 1 yellow M&M in the center of the pretzel. Then apply 6 more of the same color M&M’s around the yellow one, pressing down into the candy.

That’s all there is to it! Continue making as many flowers as you’d like to make.

Aren’t they so cute?! Spring flower candy bites are bound to bring a smile to everyone that sees them. Especially to those who TASTE them! Haha!

Maybe set a few out on a plate for the Easter Bunny! 😉 Happy Easter, everyone! 🙂
