- 12 Cupcakes baked decorated with white frosting and optional sprinkles
- 18 Regular size marshmallows
- 5 oz. Pink sanding sugar
If you are making your cupcakes, pipe white frosting onto your white cupcakes using a star tip. Pipe them into a tall spiral.
Optional: Sprinkle rainbow sprinkles onto the white frosting. You can substitute rainbow sprinkles with sweetened coconut flakes.
Pour some sanding sugar onto a plate
Cut a regular-sized marshmallows in half at a diagonal
Press the sticky inside part of the marshmallow into the pink sugar to make bunny ears
Put the bunny ears on top of the cupcake - pressing down gently to put them in place
*if they are not staying - add some frosting to the bottom of the bunny ears to help set them in place
Cut another regular marshmallow in half
Place it on the back of the cupcake, pressing it gently into the frosting to make a bunny butt.
Repeat for more.
*if your cupcake wrappers don't look great after baking in them, you can insert your cupcakes into a stiff paper wrapper. I'll include a link to Amazon of some that I have in mind
