You guys will have to forgive me for the late Easter posts. This Easter Bark, and the Easter Egg Fudge I posted two days ago, were both photographed the morning before we left for Portugal (craziness!) BUT the best part is now you have a great idea of what to do with your leftover Easter candy!
I even made a video of this recipe for you guys the morning before we left for Portugal! You can watch it here 🙂
The most important thing I can tell you about this bark, is that it´s so pretty. I love the pastel colours!! The other important thing you guys should know is that it´s soooooo easy to make. Easy Peasy..pudding and pie.. Who else used to sing that song as a child..? 😉
To make my Easter bark, I used white chocolate; pastel colored pearl almonds; edible pastel balls; pastel colored round confetti, and edible gold glitter.
This is such a versatile recipe and can be adapted for any occasion. Imagine dark chocolate bark with freeze dried strawberries and pink heart shaped confetti for Valentine´s Day……. or milk chocolate bark with pearnuts and a swirl of caramel to resemble a Snickers bar… the options are seriously endless!
Ingredients
- melted white chocolate (melt the chocolate in the microwave for 1.5 - 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds)
- mini Easter eggs (I used pastel coloured pearl almonds)
- edible balls
- edible round pastel confetti
- edible glitter
Instructions
- Line a baking pan with parchment paper making sure there is enough on the sides to lift out the bark once it has set.
- Pour the melted white chocolate in the prepared pan and make sure the chocolate is distributed evenly and in all four corners.
- Now add your candy randomly.
- Allow to set in the freezer for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- When solid, break the bark into pieces and enjoy!
Now it´s time to do some recipe planning for the next few weeks. I´ve got a list of things (notes scribbled everywhere, files saved all over the place) of different dessert recipes I want to make and share with you guys. I just need time. Loads of it. Anyone know where I can get some of it….? Ha!
Until next time, have a greattt week!!

Everrryone needs chocolate over the weekend. Without it I just can´t imagine life.. LOL 🙂
This bark is so fun! I love all that confetti on it- so pretty!

I know right.. since there´s always too much to go around anyway 😉 🙂
If I had candy to work with, I would definitely try this. My kids wouldn’t share theirs! Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday! 🙂
I wouldn´t share mine too! haha! Thanks Dee 🙂
This recipe looks so beautiful and delicious! Thanks for sharing it at Motivation Monday on Mom Home Guide!
Thanks Lauren!! Xo
I need to buy more candy just so I can make this!! My husband will kill me ha ha
LOL just don´t tell him 😉
Wow, such a great idea Johlene! I wish I could say I had Easter candy left over to make this but maybe next year:). Looks amazing, Pinning! Hope you are having a great week and take care, Tara
LOL!! Your house is like mine, there´s never any candy left over 🙂 🙂
Looks like the perfect way to use all that Easter candy! The addition of edible glitter makes it all the better 🙂 Thanks for sharing at Welcome Home Wednesdays! See you next week!
Yessss! The glitter makes it shine and that´s all that matters 🙂 🙂
You are totally forgiven for posting this late, Johlene… I think Portugal is a liiiiiiittle more important. 😉 Plus Easter candy is majorly on sale around here, so I can make this beautiful bark for super cheap! Yay! Love this bark dear! So pretty with all the pastel colors! Cheers, friend! <3
Thanks friend!! Now I´m playing catch up.
I think you guys must have the best Easter candy over there. Here in Spain it´s not that big…
Found your idea through Denise Designed Link Up Party. What a great idea! I love the great colors and glitter you have – perfect for a belated Easter gathering. Thanks!
Thanks Brenlee! Have a great week!! Xo
Okay I will be very honest… I’ve never been into any time of bark candy or treat. But I think you might be making me a believer. This really looks delish.
Thanks Kia and the BEST part is that it´s so easy!! 🙂
Oh man, if you figure out where to buy more time, let me know! I actually photographed new recipes for Easter but never managed to post them…next year I guess! Sheesh. Fortunately I have lots of leftover candy so this bark is perfect!
Haha that´s sounds like me Elizabeth! I have tons of photos waiting to be written as posts 🙂 🙂
Leftover candy? What is that? 😉
Just kidding! This bark looks insanely tasty, Johlene. I’m hoping the Easter Bunny comes around for a late delivery today…hah!
LOL! Yes seriously what is leftover candy. How could I even allow that to happen. I need help, get me to the doctor quick!! 🙂 🙂
