What’s On This Easter Candy Board

White chocolate-covered pretzels
Sour rainbow belt candy
Bunny Bait (an Easter-themed trail mix from Target)
Marshmellow Peeps chicks
Cadbury mini chocolate eggs
Annie’s Neopolitan Bunny Grahams

How to Assemble an Easter Candy Charcuterie Board

This Easter candy board is arranged to look like a decorated Easter egg. I arranged each ingredient into horizontal sections. They look like lines on an Easter egg. This board is a little less than 12 inches long. So each section is about 2 inches tall. Depending on the size and shape of the candy.

Starting at the Bottom:

White chocolate-covered pretzels
Rainbow Sour Strips
Trail Mix (Bunny Bait)
Peeps
Cadbury Mini Chocolate Eggs
White Chocolate-covered pretzels
Annie’s Bunny Grahams

The Bottom Half of the Board

Start at the bottom with the white chocolate-covered pretzels. The white mimics the white of an actual egg. Stack the pretzels 2-3 pretzels high. The height makes the board appear more full.

Next, spread out the rainbow sour strip candies. Mine are the Favorite Day Sour Rainbow Belts from Target. Favorite Day is an excellent brand for fun, colorful, and even holiday-themed snacks! Stack the strip candies so they are about the same height as the pretzels.

Leave about 2 inches of space between the rainbow strip candy and the next layer. Come back to it after adding the fourth layer, the marshmallow Peeps. Line up the Peeps facing alternating directions across the board.

Then, fill in the 3rd layer with about 6 ounces of trail mix. I used Favorite Day’s Bunny Bait from Target. Bunny Bait contains honey-roasted peanuts, white chocolate-covered pretzel balls and raisins, pastel M&M’s, confetti cookie pieces, and marshmallows. The candy strips and the Peeps hold all the Bunny Bait in place. That way the little pieces don’t spill everywhere.

The Top Half of the Board

Leave another blank space between the Peeps and the next layer. Add another layer of white chocolate-covered pretzels for the 6th layer.

Then, fill in the 5th layer with Cadbury mini chocolate eggs. The chocolate eggs are small like the trail mix. So it needs two established layers on either side to hold it in place.

There will be a little space remaining at the top of the board. Fill it in with Annie’s Neopolitan Bunny Grahams. These are little bunny-shaped vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate cookies. Be sure to lay a few of the cookies flat on top of the stack. Just so the colorful bunnies are visible!

Serve this Easter board as part of movie night. Check out this list of Easter movies on Disney Plus!

What Size Board Did You Use?

I used a 12″ board shaped like an egg. I found my board in Bullseye’s Playground at Target. That’s the front section, sometimes called the dollar spot. I’ve linked several other fun options for Easter boards below. Be sure that any board you buy says “Food Safe.” This means the board doesn’t contain any chemicals or coatings that aren’t safe for people to eat.
