These cute baby chick marshmallows are the perfect treat for Easter! Also a simple edible food craft for kids. Make this easy spring project that’s not only fun, but delicious!
Easy Baby Chick Marshmallow Easter Treats
I love bunnies, but I’m more of a baby chick kind of girl when it comes to Easter. So I made these cute and easy treats any chicken lover would adore!
You’ll need
- Large Marshmallows
- Jelly Beans
- Gourmet Writer Food Decorator Pen
- Small Tube of Yellow Icing
- Tooth Picks
Directions
Press a jelly bean in the middle of the marshmallow. It should stick if you shove it in hard enough. Draw eyes and wings with the pen. Add a little frosting on top then add the toothpick legs.
Use as decoration on top of cupcakes or stick into fruit for a fun after school snack!

I had so much fun on my baby chick photo shoot that I turned the photo into a free printable card and circle tags.
