1. Take one of the cooked round cakes and carefully cut out the bunny “ears”. Do this by cutting a pointed oval shape out of each side of the cake, leaving the middle piece as the bow tie.
2. Place the other round cake in the lower third of your serving plate. Place ears above the cake round, trimming off the bottom edges of the ears so that they sit flush with the head. Place the bow tie shape below the cake round/head.
3. Use the vanilla frosting to frost the cakes and secure them in place on the serving platter.
4. Dye 1 cup of shredded coconut pink (if desired) and use to create the inside of the bunny ears and coat the bow tie. Use the remaining white shredded coconut to coat/cover the frosted cake to create the fur.
5. Decorate with candy! Use your favorite candies to create the eyes, whiskers and mouth. We used licorice for the whiskers, candy coated chocolates for the eyes and for the bow tie buttons but get creative and use whatever you have on hand!
