The last time I did any kinda baking was at Christmas. I made a Gingerbread House and the roof caved in and my dad ate the front door. Nightmare. As I am clearly a seasonal baker, I thought it was time to venture back into the kitchen and create something Easter related. I didn’t want to do anything too challenging so decided on these mini egg marshmallow cakes – what could possibly go wrong.
You will need:
Rice Krispies
Marshmallows
Golden Syrup (or something similar)
Mini eggs
Fancy cases
I picked Agave Nectar as an alternative to golden syrup mainly because it’s lighter and less sticky. You really don’t need much as the marshmallows do a good job of binding it all together. All you need to do is add the marshmallows, Rice Krispies and syrup to a pan and heat on a low flame whilst stirring. Keep stirring for 5 minutes or so, then serve up in the fancy cases adding the mini eggs as decoration. Simples.
Pop them in the fridge for a while and let them set and ta-da! Happy Easter!
Despite Zazu getting marshmallow stuck in his tail (and looking very cross about it), I’d say the Easter cake making was a success.
Have you done any Easter baking this week? Feel free to share your creations in the comments, I’d love to see your recipes! Hope you all have a lovely Easter and enjoy all the chocolates and treats!
This has made crave a krispie cake so much π. These look delicious, hope you enjoy them π

These are honestly too cute! I have a weakness for cutesy things especially around the holidays and I might have to just makes these this year!

I hope you have a wonderful Easter! And thanks for such a cute idea!

These look so yummy! I don’t have agave nectar – do you reckon it would work as well with maple syrup? π€
Sneha | lifewithsneha.com
I think so! You donβt need much syrup as the marshmallows are so sticky βΊοΈ. Thanks for the comment Sneha π xx
I love how cute your marshmallow cakes look! To be honest, I donβt think Iβve ever tried rice krispies outside of the regular snack bar. The vibes from the mini cakes fit so well with Easter! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

He he, Zazu was definitely cross about the marshmallows π€£. Aw thanks Beka, glad you enjoyed the post π xx
It looks great and delicious! π
Thanks so much! π xx
These are basically my kids dream dessert – they love marshmallow and they love rice krispies – never thought to marry the two – and they are SO pretty to look at too:)
Thanks so much Madi π itβs such a tasty combination, glad you enjoyed the post! π xx
Awh the final creations are sooo pretty! Love a good easy bake, nothing worse than loads of pot to wash after π the photo of Zazu is actually amazing π x
Thanks Finlay! π I definitely agree, the less washing up the better π. Glad you enjoyed the post π xx
I saw these on your Instagram and they look absolutely wonderful!! Iβve not been able to find rice crispies or coco pops in Korea so will have to make these with cornflakes…and no mini eggs either boo!!!
Kelly
Thanks so much Kelly! π I think cornflakes would work just as well βΊοΈ glad you enjoyed the post π xx
These cakes look so delicious and it looks like something I would actually be able to make that I would not ruin!
Abigail – crochetingblogger.com xxx
Aw thanks Abigail π. They are really tasty and simple to make too! Glad you enjoyed the post π xx
These look yummy! The only easter baking I’ve done is standard Rice Krispie cakes made with melted chocolate and then put some mini eggs on top, so simple yet they’re so nice!
Jess // foundationsandfairytales.wordpress.com

Thanks so much Jess! π Your chocolate Rice Krispie cakes sound delicious, Iβm thinking of making them next with my left over Easter eggs! π xx
These look so tasty! Definitely going to give these a try tomorrow. We usually make chocolate cornflake cakes, but these will be a nice new treat (and we can keep the chocolate whole!)
Thanks Hannah! π I hope you enjoy making them, they make a nice alternative if you want something different than chocolate π xx
These are so cute and I bet they taste good too. This is a great idea to spice up a plain rice krispie treat and make it more festive. Also, the photo of Zazu is so cute!!
Thanks Megan! π They tasted really good and were fun to make too π xx
These look so yummy! Your photos are amazing too, especially the one of your catβ€ mini eggs is the only thing I haven’t yet found a vegan alternative for and I’m pretty sad about it haha, they were always my favourite treat! Hopefully one day, then I can make some of theseβΊοΈ

Aw thanks so much Hazel! π He he, yes π these cakes should be made all month, they are really tasty! π xx
