When it comes to Easter, we all love the classics — dyed eggs, chocolate bunnies, and jellybeans. But this year, why not elevate the experience with something truly special… something baked fresh, buttery, and bursting with springtime flavor?
At Skonzies Artisanal Scones, we believe every holiday moment can be made a little more magical with scones. Here are five delicious ways to bring them into your Easter traditions — beyond just nibbling one with your morning coffee (though that’s always a good idea, too).
🧺 1. Build an Adult Easter Basket
Who says baskets are just for kids? Create a grown-up version with your favorite tea, a linen napkin, a pretty mug, and one or two beautifully wrapped scones.Try adding a Pistachio Orange Blossom or Lemon Lavender for a floral touch — they pair beautifully with a glass of sparkling wine or a cozy chamomile blend.
🍽️ 2. Design a Brunch Board
Move over, charcuterie.Create a spring scone board with sliced scones (cut into quarters for sharing), clotted cream, lemon curd, honey butter, and fruit preserves. Garnish with edible flowers, berries, and pastel candies for a display that’s as stunning as it is delicious.
The Bunny Hop Scone Sampler is perfect for this — with six different flavors, there’s something for every bunny at the table.
🎁 3. Send Scones as a Gift
If you can’t be there in person, you can still show you care. A box of fresh-baked Skonzies delivered straight to their door is the next best thing to a warm hug. Send a box of 6 or 12 with a note that says “Thinking of you this Easter,” and watch the gratitude roll in. (Bonus: they don’t melt in the mailbox.)
🧁 4. Turn Leftovers into Dessert (If You Even Have Leftovers…)
On the rare chance you don’t eat every last crumb, try turning leftover scones into a rustic bread pudding. Tear up the scones, pour over a little custard, and bake — especially tasty with Hot Cross Skonz or Son of Speckled Rabbit for a chocolatey twist.
📸 5. Use Scones as Place Settings
Hosting Easter brunch? Wrap each scone in parchment and twine, add a name tag, and place one on each plate. It’s a sweet, personal touch that doubles as a take-home treat.We love Speckled Rabbit for this — the candy egg speckles look like tiny Easter magic.
They sell out fast, and we don’t want you to miss your chance to scone like a pro this Easter.
Cheers mates!
