Tips
- It's important to use only tempered chocolate, candy melts, or confectionary chocolate that is formulated for melting. When it firms, tempered chocolate or melting chocolate will stay looking beautiful for a long time.
- For the best results, don't use white chocolate chips for making candy. In about a day, the cocoa butter fats will rise to the surface of the candy (blooming), giving the chocolate a fuzzy, white appearance.
- This easy white chocolate bark recipe makes a perfect gift for Easter, Mother's Day, bridal showers, weddings, and other spring season occacions.

Easter Chocolate Bark
Ingredients
- 2 cups white melting chocolate chocolate discs formulated for melting, almond bark, or tempered chocolate
- ⅓ cup dark or milk melting chocolate chocolate discs formulated for melting or use tempered chocolate
- Daisy Sprinkles
- pink pearl sprinkles
- yellow pearl sprinkles
- confetti flower pastel sprinkles
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet or jelly roll pan (12” x 17”) with wax paper. Set aside.
- Put the dark or milk chocolate melts in a small ziplock bag. Microwave at 50% power for about 45 seconds, or until just melted. Set aside.
- In a medium heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate in the microwave at 50% power for 1 minute. Remove and stir. Return to the microwave and heat at 50% power for 1 minute or until just melted. Stir until smooth.
- Pour the melted white chocolate onto the prepared pan. Spread evenly with a knife or spatula to desired thickness (⅛” -¼”). Gently shake the pan side to side to even out the chocolate and smooth the surface.
- Cut a tiny corner off the bottom of the ziplock bag containing the melted chocolate. Pipe 8 or 9 tree trunks with branches, randomly around the white chocolate surface. Sprinkle the trees with pastel flower sprinkles and a few pearls. Add additional sprinkle flowers and pearls over the entire surface.
- Place in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, or until set. Use a knife to cut around the trees for individual portions.
- Store candy bark for up to 2 weeks at room temperature, wrapped in cellophane candy bags or in an airtight container with wax paper between layers.
Notes
- It is important to only use chocolate that is formulated for melting for coating and dipping. When it firms, melting chocolate will stay looking beautiful for a long time.
- For best results, don't use white chocolate chips or untempered chocolate for making candy. In about one day, the cocoa butter fats will rise to the surface of the candy (blooming), giving the chocolate a fuzzy, white appearance.
- Wrap individual portions of chocolate Easter bark in sealed cellophane candy bags.
- Place the bags in a freezer weight ziplock bag or plastic storage container.
- Only ship chocolate during cool weather.

Thank you, Ruth! I hope you enjoy making AND eating the chocolate bark!

What a beautiful treat!! It would make such a great gift for so many different occasions. Pinned.

Thank you! I used my bark for spring celebration gifts and plan to give some for Mother's Day. I think it would work well as favors for showers and weddings too! Thanks for pinning!
Monica
This bark is gorgeous, Wendy. What a great party favor or gift to give (or receive). I can't believe it's actually starting to look like your bark outside (flowers are blooming, color is coming back!) but I still need these edible blossoms. So pretty. : )
The Monday Box
Thank you, Monica! You are right. These would make a great party favor. They are so simple and quick to make, that making numerous gifts would take no time at all. After weeks of teaser weather, I think the seasons have finally changed around here too.

If I can't have real cherry blossoms, these edible ones are a perfect substitute!! So simple but beautiful.
The Monday Box
Thanks, Cindy! Sprinkles really do work magic! I have never been to a Cherry Blossom festival (DC or Japan!) but I am guessing the trees are breath taking!
Tricia @ Saving Room for Dessert
How beautiful - and they remind me of the wonderful blooms on our cherished cherry trees in Washington DC. You are an artist and make everything look delicious 🙂
The Monday Box
Thanks, Tricia! They reminded me of cherry blossoms too! I don't think I am an artist, but I definitely do love playing with chocolate and sprinkles! 🙂
Chris Scheuer
So pretty Wendy! Our weather has been the same, so up and down but these lovely trees would definitely bring the beauty of spring to the dullest day!
The Monday Box
Thanks, Chris! Though the daffodils are freezing, the honeysuckle (that invasive beast) is blooming happily! I am anxious to see some color in the trees! In the meantime, there is chocolate. 🙂
