Colorful bunny-shaped fruit cups combining berries and playful marshmallow decorations for a festive treat.

# What You'll Need:

→ Fruit

01 - 1 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
02 - 1 cup green grapes, halved
03 - 1 cup blueberries
04 - 1 cup pineapple, diced
05 - 1 banana, sliced (optional)
06 - 1 kiwi, peeled and diced (optional)

→ Decorations

07 - 6 large marshmallows for bunny cheeks
08 - 12 mini marshmallows for bunny noses
09 - 12 small candy eyes
10 - 12 pink jellybeans or pink chocolate candies for noses
11 - 12 white paper cupcake liners for bunny ears
12 - Black edible marker for whiskers and mouth

# Cooking Steps:

01 - Wash and prepare all fruits as directed. Combine diced strawberries, halved green grapes, blueberries, and diced pineapple in a large mixing bowl.
02 - Evenly divide mixed fruit into 6 small clear plastic cups.
03 - Assemble bunny faces by placing two large marshmallows on the front of each cup for cheeks. Position a mini marshmallow or pink candy between the cheeks for a nose. Attach candy eyes above the cheeks using a small amount of honey or icing as adhesive. Draw whiskers and a small mouth on the marshmallows using the black edible marker.
04 - Fold each paper cupcake liner in half and cut into ear shapes. Secure two ears to the back inside rim of each cup using tape or edible glue so they protrude upward.
05 - Serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours before serving.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Kids will actually get excited about eating fruit when it has a cute bunny face staring back at them.
  • The whole thing comes together in about 20 minutes with zero cooking, making it perfect for busy mornings or last-minute party prep.
  • You can customize the fruit based on what's in your fridge, so there's zero waste and maximum creativity.
02 -
  • If you're using honey or icing to glue on the candy eyes, apply it to the cup first rather than the marshmallow—it holds better and keeps the marshmallow clean so the edible marker still writes smoothly.
  • The paper cupcake liner ears absolutely need to be inserted into the cup rim rather than glued to the outside, or they'll droop and the whole bunny aesthetic collapses within an hour.
03 -
  • Use a food-safe adhesive instead of regular tape if you can find it—the ears look cleaner and stay put better, especially if the cups sit for a while before being eaten.
  • The edible marker works best on marshmallows that are at room temperature, so don't decorate them straight from a cold fridge or the marker will skip and smudge.
