Easter is just around the corner, and you know what that means: tons of tasty treats. A lot of desserts are made using a slew of ingredients—many of which have been created using particle reduction from companies like BEE International—but often times the complexities of a luscious dessert are worth it, and some are even quite simple to throw together. If you’ve got a craving for something sweet this Easter, be sure to try the following:
Pie
How can we choose just one pie when there are so many amazing ones that work perfectly in the spring? You’ve got lemon meringue, with its sweet and zesty flavor. There’s strawberry, which is as sweet as you can get. A rhubarb pie is different and exciting. Coconut cream hits the spot during any season. And who could ignore the classic apple?
Marshmellow Easter Eggs
These light little chocolate eggs are one part brittle cocoa and one part sweet, marshmallowy goodness. It’s the perfect finger food to bring to Easter dinner. They’re easy to make, taste great, and you probably won’t be able to have just one.
Bread Pudding
If you’ve never tried bread pudding, you’re doing yourself a disservice. This dessert is incredibly moist, drizzled with icing, sprinkled with cinnamon, and a load of other flavor-enhancing ingredients depending on the specific recipe. It can be made with bananas, blueberries, strawberries, and several other fruits to change the flavor to your liking.
Lemon Tarts
Lemon might just be the perfect flavor for spring and summer. There’s just something about the zesty flavor that brightens our day and awakens our taste buds. Take all that and put it into a tart and you’ve got yourself a recipe for success.
Strawberry Shortcake
Strawberry shortcake is perfect for Easter. It’s light, it’s fruity, and it satisfies our sweet tooth. While this dessert is simple, it holds a place in our hearts as one of the classics that just keeps coming back. Plus, it’s so light that you won’t even feel bad about going back for seconds!
Carrot Cake
It’s just not Easter without carrot cake. When done right, this is hands down one of the best cakes you can sink your teeth into. The spongey center is incredibly moist, but top it with a cream frosting and sprinkle on some walnut bits? Forget about it. Just watch your plate or the Easter Bunny is bound to snag it from beneath your nose!
Happy Easter!
You can’t go wrong with any of these delicious Easter treats during the spring season. Whether you decide to make a pie, a cake, a tart, or anything else that rots your teeth, you can bet you won’t be going home with any leftovers.
