Yesterday was beautiful. The sun was out shining as bright as can be and it seemed like just maybe winter was finally over. It was a great day to start early on the Easter celebration. My friend over at CakeWardrobe was asked by See's Candies to make something sweet and delectable to commensurate the arrival of their Easter candies. She's a fashion designer and I'm a pastry chef and somehow we meet perfectly in the middle! I'm so lucky that she asked me to help.
The people over at See's Candies sent us a bounty load with everything we could imagine. We were definitely two kids in a candy store! In the box were brightly colored foil chocolate eggs, pastel jelly beans, truffles adorned with dainty hearts, fuzzy bunnies atop easter candy canes, and much much more. You can imagine the fun we had coming up with different ideas. When a fashion designer and a pastry chef get together its nothing but creativity.
We made coconut cupcakes with Almond Royal centers topped with coconut frosting and toasted shredded coconut and green dyed coconut flakes. Our Easter cake is a simple yellow cake with buttercream. The inside is filled with crushed Toffee-ettes. The crunch of the buttery toffee with pieces of almond and chocolate really make this simple cake special. Everything came out shockingly colorful and fun. Too sweet for words!
And no little bunny, I'm not going to steal your carrot away!
