Instructions

Things You’ll Need:

  • Cupcakes
  • Icing
  • Cookies
  • Candy
  • Butter knife
  • Cutting board
  1. Ice the cupcakes with pre-made frosting from the can. You can use white or pastel colors to create the Easter bunny face.
  2. Place one pastel or black gumdrop in the center of the cupcake for the bunny nose.
  3. Cut strings of black string licorice two inches long. Place these on either side of the gumdrop to act as whiskers.
  4. Cut one small string of red shoe string licorice to be the mouth. Place two pieces of candy corn under the mouth to be the buck teeth on the rabbit face.
  5. Create eyes for the bunny using two white gumdrops. Cut small dots out of blue or black gumdrops. Press one into each white gum drop. Press the two eyes on the face.
  6. Take two peanut butter peanut shaped cookies and paint them with the same frosting you used fo the cupcake. These will be the bunny ears. You can use more candy to create the inside of the ears. Taffy can be formed like Play-Doh and pressed into the icing.
  7. Stand the ears on the top of the bunny head by pressing them vertically into the cupcake.
  8. Tie one piece of red shoe string licorice into a bow. Place the bow at the neck of the cupcake. Repeat this process on as many cupcakes as needed.
