Cute and Simple Easter Cupcake Decorating

Easter is a fun time for bakers. Cute bunnies and chicks can be bought already made to top your favorite cupcake recipes.

You don't have to make it all yourself, and if you are baking and decorating homemade Easter cupcakes for a school or church function then it might just be a good idea to go with the quickest, but still cute, Easter decorations you can find rather than decorating it all from scratch.

Decorating Easter cupcakes with children? You will have to take a look at some of these ideas for decorating Easter cupcakes that just need to be plopped onto a frosted cupcake and you are ready to go. Your kids will have fun decorating with you and being a part of the festivities.

Decorating Easter cupcakes may even become a tradition!

Easter Bunny Cupcake Mold

Silicone Pans are easy to cook with and can be taken to the freezer, refrigerator, oven, microwave and dishwasher, that's why I love them! No fuss, low maintenance, and they are easy to flex which makes popping out your cupcakes super easy.

Throw them in the dishwasher when you are done.

Great for cupcakes, but also perfect for making jello! I like my products to be versatile and the more ways I can use something the happier I am. I don't have money to waste and if a product can do more than one job I am VERY happy!

Wilton Non-stick Bunny Pan

The Easter Bunny - cute as a cupcake!

I love Easter Bunny shaped bakeware for Easter.

If you really want to have some fun with your Easter Cupcake Decorating, giving the Easter Bunny a different look for each cupcake would be so much fun. Change out eye colors, the color of the frosting and even his whiskers to match the person you are making the cupcake for.

Even more fun would be letting kids decorate their own Easter Bunny at an Easter party.

Last year a friend of mine had a birthday party for her daughter with a Master Chef theme. All of the kids got to decorate their own cupcake and prizes were given out. Could you do this with an Easter Bunny? Kids would love it!

Toss these pans in the dishwasher once the fun is over for easy clean up.

Easter Cupcake Decorating Birdsnest Cupcake

I'm a mother of two and sometimes there just isn't enough time to get creative with cupcake decorating. It's fun to do your own thing and play a little while decorating, but when you have several dozen cupcakes and a pot-luck or a bake sale to get to, the decorating just needs to get done.

If you are short on time, or maybe if you just don't feel creative, don't worry! Pastel coloured frosting along with sprinkles, jellybeans, tiny Easter egs, peeps and other types of candy, especially ready bought Easter candy, can simply be popped onto the top of your cupcake for a quick cute edible decoration.

Want to get creative?

I made the birdsnest Easter cupcake to the right with flake bars and malt candy birds eggs. Experiment with different colors of frosting to get the look you want. Next time I will use white or a tinted green frosting for my birdsnest cupcake. It was fun to decorate. Like this photo? Feel free to use it if you link the image back to this page.
