Bunny Bum Bons

Bunny Bum Bons [1]

These little cuties are really cake balls but I couldn’t resist calling them Bunny Bum Bons. Actually I think I made them just so I could type those words. Bum Bons. It’s the little things that make me smile.

You can use my Basic Cake Pop instructions [3] for the cake ball base.

Now, I usually dip cake balls using a spoon, but I used toothpicks for these to make it easier and also because I knew I could cover up the pinhole with a tiny tail.

Speaking of tiny tails… Mini marshmallows for the win. To make them look more fluffy, I pressed the marshmallows together a little and then made a few cross hatch marks with kitchen scissors.

When done, you can attach them to the cake balls with a bit of melted candy coating.

Now for the feet.

Chocolate Feet [7]

Just pour melted white candy coating in a small squeeze bottle and pipe pairs of paws. Use a toothpick to help smooth and perfect the shape.

Here’s a template [8] for reference if you need it. I think it helps to get pairs of feet the same size more quickly.

When dry, you can dot / draw on the paws with melted pink candy coating.

Enjoy and Hoppy Easter!!!
