On Easter Sunday, many people celebrate the holiday by spending time with loved ones over a delicious meal and sweet treats. Ordering Easter-themed goods from a local bakery can make your feast even tastier and more memorable. Here are a handful of sweets to have at your gathering. 

4 Baked Goods for Easter

1. Cupcakes

These sweet, muffin-like cakes are easy to decorate with colorful frosting and candies for Easter. They may feature icing that resembles Easter grass topped with chocolate eggs, bunnies, or marshmallow chicks—finished with a licorice arch—making them resemble tiny Easter baskets. Bakers may also use frosting to create carrots or seasonal flowers such as tulips and daffodils on top of the cupcakes, turning them into festive treats. 

2. Cookies

Sugar cookies are versatile, which means a bakery can typically cut them into Easter-themed shapes like eggs, flowers, bunnies, chicks, and carrots. Once baked, they may decorate with them with frosting, sprinkles, and candies in seasonal pastel hues like lavender, blush, mint, canary, and sky blue.

Setting out plates or trays of these cookies on dining and server tables can provide edible decor at your event and give guests something to snack on before and after your feast.

3. Cakes

Ordering a full-size cake for your Easter celebration can allow you to customize the design and make it special for the holiday. You might opt for a vanilla cake decorated with white frosting, sparkly white sprinkles, and topped with fondant bunny ears. This can provide you with an Easter rabbit cake that may serve as a showpiece at your celebration.

You might also frost a yellow cake with chocolate icing, include marshmallow chicks along the perimeter, and top the center with candy eggs or chocolate chips. If a bakery doesn't offer these decorations, you may order plain frosted cakes and decorate them at home.  

4. Donuts

Though perhaps not traditional, donuts can make the perfect Easter sweets. Flavors such as lemon, berry, and vanilla cream are seasonally appropriate, and a bakery may top them with glaze or icing in colorful pastel shades or adorn them with frosted carrots, eggs, and flowers to celebrate the holiday. You can also order plain glazed donuts and decorate them yourself, using icing and candies to make them resemble bunnies, chicks, or eggs.
