How to make it
- To Cut and Form Bunnies:
- Slice each cupcake in half horizontally forming two circles, (each cupcake forms two bunnies by the way). Slice each circle in half, forming 4 semicircles. Stand two semicircles together, rounded edge up.
- Glue these two semicircles together with a small amount of frosting. Then glue the remaining two semicircles together in the same fashion.
- Now, cut a small wedge from one end of the glued semicircle. Save one half of the wedge for the bunny’s tail. Pop other half of the wedge into your mouth. It’s good, isn’t it?
- Glue the bunny tail onto the rounded end of the standing semicircles. Frost and decorate.
- Decorating Ideas for Bunny Cupcakes for Kids:
- Cut bunny ears from a sheet of pink construction paper. Make a small fold in the base of each ear to give the ear a sense of realistic depth.
- Pat shredded coconut onto each bunny while the frosting is still ‘wet’ to give your bunnies white ‘fur’.
- Tint some frosting with food coloring and pipe eyes and noses onto bunnies or pipe a small flower under each bunny‘s nose!
- Serve bunnies on small individual plates surrounded by shredded coconut that has been tinted green (optional)
