The long Easter weekend is the perfect opportunity for a spot of baking. If you fancy rustling up some Easter treats you’ve come to the right place. These insanely chocolatey cakes, biscuits, buns and puds are all worthy of a place on your Easter table.
Chocolate and Malteser cake
It doesn’t get more decadent than layers of chocolate Malteser cake, covered in a rum, malt and white chocolate icing, then topped with Mini Eggs.
Sweetshop crispy treats
Crunchies, Curly Wurly bars, Rice Krispies, marshmallows and Mini Eggs come together to form a treat for serious sweet-lovers.
It’s an Easter triple-threat, and that’s just the topping. Creme Eggs, Mini Eggs and chocolate nests perch on top of fluffy vanilla cupcakes.
There’s a lot going on here. A chocolate-sponge roulade is rolled and filled with caramel, double cream, broken Easter chocs, nuts and chocolate biscuits. Top with melted chocolate and more Easter chocs and prepare for wows from your Easter guests.
Easter chocolate meringue nests
