Last year I made individual Easter Bunny Cinnamon Rolls that went viral.

When little Roger Dale saw a picture of them he immediately wanted to make and eat them again.

Of course, I’m always up for cinnamon rolls, but this time I thought it would be fun to make a Giant Easter Bunny Cinnamon Roll!

Which he loved!!

I spent so much time looking for different edible flower candies, and after a long search online (multiple times) I finally decided to make my own so that I could customize them to the colors I wanted, bright pink, yellow, and blue!

This Giant Easter Bunny Cinnamon Roll is meant to be shared, like at an Easter brunch or as a dessert for a spring party.

But since I made this on a random Tuesday, we enjoyed one ear and then shared the rest with some of our family that live nearby.

If you are looking for a fun cinnamon roll Easter treat for just your family, I highly recommend my original Easter Bunny Cinnamon Rolls.

But if you are looking to make cinnamon rolls for a party, this one is so much fun to make and eat.

And I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Instructions

1. First, preheat your oven to the temperature it says on the packaging of your cinnamon rolls, and then line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Open 3 cans of cinnamon rolls, place the icing to the side, and pull out all of the cinnamon rolls.
3. Place one cinnamon roll on the lower half of your baking sheet and then unwrap a second cinnamon roll and wrap it around the first cinnamon roll. Repeat this process until there are 7 cinnamon rolls making one big cinnamon roll.
4. Then squish 2 cinnamon rolls into bunny ear shapes and place them at the top of the giant cinnamon roll. Then wrap more cinnamon rolls around each ear to make them bigger.
   • Be sure the ears are pressed firmly against the giant cinnamon roll head.
5. Continue the process of wrapping the ears and head with cinnamon rolls to your desired size.
6. Squish the ears one more time to make them extra pointy.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the center is thoroughly baked.
8. While the cinnamon rolls are baking, melt your candy melts according to their packaging instructions along with some coconut oil.*(1)
   • I didn’t have a pink I liked so I used white candy melts with pink gel food coloring.
9. Then spread each color of the melted candy melts into the 3 different flower silicone molds. Bend, tap, and shake the silicone molds to remove the bubbles, and use an icing spreader to remove the excess.
10. Chill in your freezer for 5-10 minutes.
11. Then carefully remove the candy flowers from the molds and set them to the side.
12. Thoroughly clean the molds and then repeat steps 8-11 a second time.
13. Once the giant easter bunny cinnamon rolls has baked and cooled, top with icing.
14. Then arrange the candy flowers on the head of the bunny like a flower crown.
15. Finally, spray edible glitter spray all over the Giant Easter Bunny Cinnamon Roll.
16. Cut, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

1. The coconut oil helps thin out the candy melts so that it is easier to work with.
