Every year, as Easter approaches, Cadbury, the renowned confectionery company, introduces a new bunny to its festive lineup, adding a layer of excitement and anticipation among its consumers. This tradition not only showcases Cadbury’s commitment to celebrating Easter—a holiday synonymous with chocolate eggs and bunnies—but also highlights the company’s innovative spirit in keeping the holiday fresh and engaging for chocolate lovers of all ages.

The introduction of a new bunny each year serves as a testament to Cadbury’s creative prowess. From the iconic Cadbury Creme Egg to various chocolate bunnies, each new addition is eagerly awaited. These bunnies often come in different sizes, flavors, and even interactive packaging, making them not just a treat but a fun experience for families and friends. This strategy helps Cadbury stay at the forefront of consumers’ minds during the Easter season, reinforcing its position as a leader in holiday-themed confectionery.

Who is the new Cadbury Bunny?

Cadbury has continued its tradition of celebrating Spring and Easter by crowning a new Bunny of the Year, a title now decided by public vote. This year, the honor goes to Louie, a two-year-old rescued raccoon from Florida. Unable to return to the wild, Louie is living out his days as an advocate for wildlife rescue and rehabilitation efforts. His victory in the Cadbury Bunny Tryouts contest not only earns him $7-thousand but also a starring role in a Cadbury commercial. Competition for the annual Bunny spot was fierce, but Louie narrowly beat out tabby cat Loki to secure the position for the coming year.

5 Creative Easter Egg Decorating Ideas Inspired By Pop Culture

Are you preparing for an Easter egg hunt? Maybe you just want to plan a fun activity of egg decorating with the family? Many people opt for the traditional dying of eggs. However, some people are taking their egg decorating a step further with painted or marbled creations. There are several decorating ideas to choose from. This is especially true when using pop culture as your inspiration, with movies, TV shows, video games, and your favorite celebrities.

No matter your level of expertise, there are plenty of helpful resources, such as printable templates, videos, and color charts, available.

Let’s Decorate Easter Eggs

If you plan on using acrylic paint to decorate your Easter eggs, then you’ll need some supplies. If you’re using hard-boiled eggs, boil the eggs first and leave them to cool. For wooden or plastic eggs, be sure to wash them first and leave them to dry overnight.

Some people choose to hollow out the egg for less of a mess. To hollow it out, use a pin or a nail to pop a hole through the top. Then, add a second hole on the bottom making it bigger than the first hole. Grab a bowl and blow through the egg to remove the yolk. Gently clean the egg under tap water, washing it through the hole. Let it dry.

When it’s time to paint, a trick I often use is resting your egg on a fresh toilet paper roll. To make your colors stand out, paint your egg white first, or skip this completely by purchasing white eggs. While you can use watercolor paint or any paint for that matter, I’ve found that acrylic paints work well on eggs or acrylic paint markers for more detailed decorating.

Once the egg is painted, you can leave it to dry or use a blow dryer to speed up the drying process.

With Easter around the corner, check out some fun pop culture Easter egg decorating ideas below.

  • Comic Book Eggs

    Whether you’re a Marvel or a DC fan, you can decorate your Easter egg in either theme. A woman shared on her blog, Food Fun Family, the dozen eggs she and her daughter painted that were inspired by The Avengers. They used fake eggs, Sharpie pens, chalkboard pens, and acrylic paints. Instead of getting super detailed with exact character faces, they painted the symbols of The Avengers, The Hulk, Spiderman, Thor’s hammer, and more. This is perfect for your comic book-loving family members.

  • Disney Easter Eggs

    Disney has a lot of inspiration for decorating Easter eggs, from Mickey and Minnie Mouse to Cinderella and Frozen. One blogger shared that they purchased a Monsters University Easter Egg Dye Kit at Target to make the process easier. A platform worth using for step-step guides to painting specific Disney eggs is Pinterest. Some suggestions share stickers and templates for some of the more detailed parts of the decorations.

If you want something simpler, you can stick to designs like footballs, basketballs, baseballs, or other sports equipment. This is perfect for the sports lover in your family.
