Go all out for Easter with these cinnamon rolls. The sweet roll dough is tinted with festive colors, then topped with luscious cream cheese frosting and a vivid green "grass" made with shredded coconut. Adorable marshmallow bunnies take it over the top!
Easter is a time for colorful desserts and marshmallow treats, so the six remaining bakers have to create an ooey-gooey marshmallow dessert in a bright Easter color. For the main heat, it's off to the Easter parade for some fun with fashion as the competitors must bake and decorate a tropical fruit-flavored dessert that looks just like an Easter bonnet.
The Kitchen celebrates Easter with two classic holiday dishes: Geoffrey Zakarian's stuffed pork loin and Marcela Valladolid's leg of lamb. Pastry Chef Johnny Iuzzini shows us a new twist on the carrot cake. Plus, fun and edible food crafts for your holiday table and innovative ideas on how to use your leftover Easter eggs. Lastly, Geoffrey shares his Easter punch.
We're hoppin' down the bunny trail celebrating the sweet and savory favorites from the Easter holiday! We start with Palmer's Chocolate Bunnies-did you know that three-quarters of us start by biting off the ears? We also love our bunnies in the form of pasta by Annie's Homegrown, and Bunny Tracks Ice Cream by (who else?) Blue Bunny. Of course our "Easter Basket" wouldn't be complete without Peeps-but now the marshmallow favorites have been dipped in another beloved confection! Plus, we'll see how Easter hams get their special flavor, see one of the country's top egg decorators, and sample Easter cakes both large and small. Marc Summers hosts a special hour-long celebration of our favorite Spring holiday-"Easter Basket" Unwrapped.
