Pastel Chocolate Bark Cadbury Eggs (Print Version)

A vibrant chocolate bark with pastel candy melts, mini Cadbury eggs, and sprinkles to brighten your dessert table.

# What You'll Need:

→ Chocolate Base

01 - 10.6 oz white chocolate, chopped or white chocolate chips
02 - 1.8 oz pastel-colored candy melts (pink, yellow, blue, purple)

→ Toppings

03 - 4.2 oz mini Cadbury eggs, roughly chopped
04 - 2 tablespoons pastel-colored sprinkles
05 - 1.1 oz mini marshmallows, optional

# How to Make It:

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between each interval, until smooth.
03 - In separate small bowls, melt each color of pastel candy melts according to package instructions.
04 - Pour the melted white chocolate onto the center of the lined baking sheet. Using a spatula, spread into a rough rectangle approximately 0.5 inch thick.
05 - Drizzle the melted pastel candy melts over the white chocolate in random patterns. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled effect.
06 - Immediately sprinkle the chopped mini Cadbury eggs, pastel sprinkles, and mini marshmallows evenly over the chocolate while it is still wet.
07 - Gently press toppings into the chocolate to help them adhere.
08 - Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or until fully set.
09 - Break or cut the bark into pieces and serve.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like spring tastes—bright, sweet, and unapologetically fun without being too serious about it.
  • You can make it in the time it takes to find all your Easter decorations, which means less stress and more actual celebration.
  • Broken into pieces and tucked into baskets, it feels like a gift you made rather than bought.
02 -
  • Humidity is your enemy here—if your kitchen is steamy or it's a damp day, the chocolate takes longer to set and can develop a waxy white coating called bloom, which looks sad even though it tastes fine.
  • Add your toppings before the white chocolate sets completely; once it hardens, nothing sticks anymore, and you'll be left gluing things on with dots of melted chocolate like you're doing repairs.
03 -
  • Use an offset spatula instead of a regular one for spreading chocolate; it gives you more control and less accidental cracking.
  • If your pastel candy melts are too thick, add a tiny drop of coconut oil (not water, which seizes chocolate) to loosen them up without ruining the texture.
