I have a a big weakness for Cadbury’s Creme Egg’s, so when I came across these chocolate Easter chicks by A Mummy Too, I just had to share them with you.
Have you seen the chick with the red horns, and the chick furthest to the right has a Mohican ( a.k.a Mohawk if you’re outside the UK).
These are so much fun, and A Mummy Too has kindly shared how to make these. For more details please visit her blog here.
Have a great weekend!

Easter Egg Cupcakes
These Easter Egg cupcakes are baked using a regular vanilla cupcake recipe, and covered with vanilla frosting (tinted green) and piped with a grass tip.
I used a chocolate mould to make the fondant eggs. The imprint from the mould created the bunny and egg decor. I then painted these with various edible dusts.

How adorable is this Easter Pig Egg? This would make a great addition to your Easter decorations. My 3 year old would love to create this. Now I know what we can make with those spare pipe cleaners. 
Discover how to make the Pig and other fun animals made from Eggs at the Disney Family Fun website.
Easter Gifts
If you’re looking for Easter gifts for the family then have a look at these lovely Easter goodies via NOTHS*.
The fabulous ‘Biscuiteers’ have a beautiful collection of chocolate cookies, handcrafted with bunnies, lambs and eggs. I also love that you keep the tin.
These Easter Egg Kits by Cocopod are packed with chocolate and sweets. The pack contains brushes, bags and ribbons, and they claim to have extra generous portions of sweets to decorate four flat chocolate eggs. They currently have 6 five star reviews, so worth a peek.
I had to show you this Easter inspired Rainbow tree filled with eggs, smarties and raisins. I’ve seen these before for other occasions, they certainly are a present with a difference.
I hope you’ve been inspired!
Until next time…
