Lime cake with Easter bunny

The lime cake hides the sweet Easter bunny.

 

With this recipe for the lime cake with Easter bunny, I made my own version of a cake with a pattern.

I have often seen cakes with a pattern in the middle, such as a star at Christmas, but never made one in black and white. Last year I baked a chocolate cake for Easter and hid a “carrot” in it.

This year at Easter, there is the classic version in black and white. The bunny is made of chocolate dough and the light dough is seasoned with lime. As decoration, I make a lime glaze and a put bit of lime zest on top, finished is the delicious and fresh Easter cake.
