Cute cupcakes decorated with edible green apple flavored “grass,” purchased at Kroger, courtesy of my mother-in-law and the girls!
I love a good excuse for eating festive treats and Easter is no exception. I am definitely in Camp Peep, but I never met a jelly bean or pastel M&M I didn’t love.
Here are some Easter treats that are very easy to make but that will still score you major bunny ear points with your family. Slacker holiday moms rejoice!
Ask any mom with a few Easter baskets on her resume will tell you, your kids don’t give a flying bunny poop about how long you labored over the intricate Easter treats.

These are all so cute. I especially like the oreos. Kids could do those. If only these ideas and products had been out there when I was raising my kids and I was room mother. Have a great Easter, Jamie and family..

The Oreos are really cute, aren’t they? I was thinking that the vanilla Oreos would be more Easter-ish pastel but then the icing colors might not pop. Happy Easter to you, too, Balisha!
These look delish! We love cupcakes! Definitely a must try with my kiddos 🙂
They are fun for kids to decorate, too. 🙂
The Jordan almond blue birds are too stinkin cute! And I’m pretty sure even I could handle the lemon cookie recipe. Thanks for sharing!
Jamie, great post! And way too funny. 🙂 These are some great ideas. Thanks!
Those are sooo cute! I love the green edible grass. Didn’t know such a thing existed. My mom used to use coconut and food coloring to make grass
I had no idea either! I knew you could dye coconut but that is probably a tad too Martha Stewart for me. 😉
Thanks so much for the mention in your post! I’m excited to be a new follower of yours! Your site is awesome!
Thanks and you’re welcome!
Lol I love this, taking notes for next year
Everything is so cute. These would be a great idea for next year. My favorite is the Easter Kit Kat Cake!
Great lists and selections! Those cupcakes are awesome! Maybe from afar, it would look like a marble sculpture but I can already imagine the texture and sweetness that will burst in my mouth once I get to bite it.
This is inspiring. Thanks for all the ideas. I love those colorful cookies. On special occasions, we get grown-up chocolates for the parents to go with the kids’ treats. I like chocolate cigars from 1. The Chocolate Book
Great post! and those cupcakes look delicious!:)
This page really has all the information I wanted concerning this subject and didn’t know who to ask.
Those lemon sugar cookies we made… wow!
