How to Make Edible Bunny Peeps Easter Snow Globe

First, you need to gather your supplies and choose the jars you want to use.

You have 2 choices of jars. If you have or know someone who has baby food jars then, Yippee!! use those. They need to be tall baby food jars, not short ones.

If you can’t get your hands on any, then no problem you can use these Tiny Ball Jars (linked). However, DO NOT buy them unless you check the price. They are currently outrageous on Amazon. Go to Walmart, a craft store, or try the Dollar Tree. Marketplace is another place where you might be able to find old baby food jars to reuse pretty cheaply.

Make sure that the jars are clean and dry. If you notice some sticky residue or the label isn’t coming off use a little Goo Gone and then rewash. You will need to be able to clearly see your Easter peeps through the glass.

Tiny Ball Jar Idea Edible Easter Snow Globes

First, I’ll show you how to use the tiny ball jars. This version has a few steps less than using a baby food jar snow globes and I think this version is just a little cuter than using the baby food jars.

Start out with your jar, some melted chocolate, a bunny, a few candy eggs, and this edible grass. This Edible Easter Snow Globe is really versatile. You can make it with just sprinkles, make a few different versions, or go all out and add everything to each one.

In a microwave safe bowl (I use a pyrex glass bowl) melt your chocolate wafers or chopped up white chocolate almond bark, either one will work. Melt the chocolate in 10-15 second increments stirring before starting the next 10-15 seconds and so on until the chocolate is melted.

Spoon the melted chocolate into a piping bag or ziplock bag keeping the chocolate toward the bottom corner. When you are ready, clip a small tip off of the edge to pipe the chocolate out.

Open your package of edible grass and gently cut the grass into smaller pieces using kitchen sheers or a knife. The grass, eggs, peeps, and sprinkles are all part of the edible decorations that your kids are going to love!

Next up, you are going to dress the bunny marshmallow peep (not marshmallow chicks they’re too big) by coating the bottom of your bunny in a layer of chocolate and then in edible grass. Covering the bunny in chocolate first is the perfect way to get the grass to stick correctly. You can also dip your bunny’s bottom in chocolate in an assembly line fashion and then into grass if you’re making a bunch.

Set them on parchment paper to dry before fitting the bunny into the jar. If you put it in too early you may smear chocolate onto the sides of the glass.

Choose a few candy eggs and dot the back of your egg candy with chocolate then set it in place. I chose to have all 3 in the front and it should fit into the jar.

Let the chocolate set then, dot the bottom with chocolate so it sticks to the jar. Gently place your bunny into the tiny ball jar upside down. Let sit again for the chocolate to harden.

If you want to shake your little peeps bunny snowglobe put a few teaspoons of sprinkles into the jar then close the lid. Kids (even me) will love being able to shake these cute little snowglobes and hear the rattling. This version of the easter dessert is right side up so you can tie a string or ribbon to the top to add a touch of color.

You’re done with this one. On to the baby food jar snow globe.

Baby Food Jar Edible Easter Snow Globe

Baby food jars have a few extra steps. Not hard steps, just a few that take a little more time. First, you need to spray paint your lids. They need to be painted white first for the other color to really show.

WHITE SPRAY PAINT THEN THE COLOR YOU WANT. Let dry. You need to be able to cover the black font and the colored lid. Be sure to wash the lid again after spray painting it.

Melt chocolate wafers, almond bark or even chocolate chips. Each type of chocolate melts a little bit differently but all can be use in this edible craft.

Take your lid and put a dab of melted chocolate on it, then top with a double (just means 2 stuck together) candy wafer. Top again with a dab of chocolate then set your bunny on that. Let the chocolate harden.

The height will help to keep your bunny in place. You could also use a tall candy like a rolo candy or even a jolly rancher. The bunny peep just needs to be high enough to be visible in the snow globe. The picture looks like green icing but it isn’t that is melted green candy wafer chocolate. Once the chocolate hardens it will hold that bunny in place.

Now add grass to your bunny like he is sitting in your yard. First, add a little more chocolate around the bottom of your bunny butt and cover it with edible grass. Let it sit to dry at room temperature or to speed things up a bit just pop it into the freezer for a few minutes to set.

On top of the edible grass will be some candy eggs. You can choose from pastel m&m, jelly beans, Cadbury mini eggs, shimmer sixlets, or any classic easter candy. Whatever you choose, please make sure that you check to see if it fits when you put the lid on. Place a dab for each candy egg you use so they stick correctly and let dry.

Put a few teaspoons of sprinkles you have on hand, or this sprinkle I found works the best. This fun edible craft is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth!

Add a little sunshine to your child’s day and give them one of these as an afternoon snack. Be sure to make a few extra just in case friends come over.

Very gently, place your lid on while trying not to knock off any of the eggs. Screw the base on tight enough to secure that your child can shake the snowglobe without anything falling out.

That’s it your done! Now celebrate by running through the house yelling, or just eat one. Seriously, it takes some patience to make these sometimes. Any Easter celebration that you attend would love to have these as a favor or even a prize for the one who gets the most eggs. It would also make a cute peeps centerpiece for the dining room table or use a few for as easter decorations.

A few more cute ideas, and a great way to use up some peeps bunnies if that is… you have any leftover bunnies save them for peeps s’mores, just add graham crackers and a little chocolate. You can even use the candy wafers and heat the s’mores up in the microwave for a few seconds.

These cute easter treats can be brought by the eater bunny or they can be a great addition to your easter tradition. It has quickly become one of our favorite easter peeps recipes that our kids love to make each year and is such a cute use for some peep bunnies.
