The Pittsburgh Press, March 17, 1975 Bunny cake an Easter favorite to bake at home. Smart Treats Brighten Baskets By VERONICA VOLPE Press Food Editor Easter may bring out various things in adults but for children, it generally brings out the "sweet tooth." Parents, concerned with the kind of quantity of sweets their children consume, can prepare more nourishing varieties at home to use as basket fillers. Oats, other cereals, raisins and chopped nuts in cookies provide a filler with far greater nutrition than the more commonly used confections. Candies can be formed using crumbs, dried fruits, nuts and fruit juices to be rolled in shredded coconut for a more nutritious sweet. These and the popular bunny-shaped cake will make wholesome Easter goodies.
