Easter Cakes I made!

Okay so I wanted to make something clever for easter... We were going over to my sisters house for easter... kindof easter hoping yesterday.   I decided to make a cake, but I jumped on the internet to find a clever easter cake to make.   I found a betty crocker recipe that was, I think, was better looking than the other flat bunny cakes out there.

I did make a couple of tiny design changes but for the most part used there design for my first time around with this recipe.  When I made the cakes I did not level them.  After they cooled and I cut them in half I made sure that I cut it in such a way that the back end was wider when I put the two pieces together.  This made it look more dimensional.   I did use icing to stick it all together, I almost used strawberry filling... but when I talked with my husband I realized that visually I didn't want to have a bunny massacre for easter

I cut the nose jelly bean in half length wise and shaped into a triangle... the jelly bean I had were too big for the eyes, and I am told my bunnies looked evil.  I wasn't sure if everyone liked coconut so instead I used the flat side of a table knife and patted the bunny after it was frosted, pulling the knife straight up.  This made great looking fur.   Also I thought the tail was too gi-normous so I ate one layer and centered the other.


This was a fun recipe, very easy to make.  I would recommend it for everyone.
