My Favorite Cake Decorating Tips
- Toasted coconut makes an excellent “grass” to cover the top of a cake and provide a base for nesting your Easter candies or figures. Simply spread green-tinted coconut over the frosted cake for an easy grassy effect.
- Use an offset spatula to create a “nest” of frosting on top of the cake. Then fill the nest with malted milk eggs, jellybeans, or other egg-shaped candies!
With just some basic baking skills and a little imagination, you can create a show-stopping Easter cake that tastes as wonderful as it looks. The best part about these easy decorating ideas? They’re so simple that even the kids can get involved! Get the whole family in on the fun this Easter!
