Easter Fun
I have always loved Easter treats. Especially carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Every year I looked forward to the bunny carrot cake my mom would make for Easter. I continued that tradition with my own kids but this year I decided to modify the cake now that I discovered fondant. I used the same cake recipe since it's awesome! but modified the icing some so it could hold up to the fondant on top. I loved the fact that I could make fondant ears because other years I just used card stock or paper ears. Fondant works much better.
Here's the bunny cake!
I also tried out making cookie Easter baskets. These are made from 7 stacked cookies with chocolate fondant handles then filled with jelly beans, chocolate eggs and a chocolate bunny cookie. from the book "Ultimate Cookies" by Julia Usher. This book is awesome, she makes amazing cookies!
