Dipping the marshmallows in sprinkles is what turns them into the look of bunny ears, so don’t miss this step.

You can use any sprinkles you want here, a pastel pink or lavender would also be pretty.

I went with bright pink, because that’s how I roll – the brighter the bunny the happier the bunny in my book.

To finish off the cake a jelly beans nose and a few whiskers is all you need. I like using the edible grass for whiskers, but matchstick carrots would work as well.
