Wilton Puts a New Spin on a Traditional Brunch

The birds are singing and the flowers are blooming. The joyous Easter season is about new beginnings, inside as well as outside. Before you start preparing an Easter brunch menu, see how Wilton Enterprises can bring new customs and recipes into your kitchen.

"Even though they can get tedious year after year, traditional Easter dishes are a must during the holidays," said Nancy Siler, director of consumer affairs for Wilton Enterprises, the nation's leading supplier of cake and entertaining supplies. "Make your Easter brunch memorable with a few new twists on old favorites!"

Surprise your kids by starting a new food tradition this Easter. Fruity gelatin coupled with pineapples, cranberries, or carrots in the shape of tiny bunnies will have your little ones jumping for joy. Perfect as an activity they can do on their own, children will be "hopping" to help you prepare such charming Easter treats in Wilton's Mini Bunny Pan!

Focaccia Egg Torte

Planning an Easter brunch can be difficult. Ease your mind and excite the family with Wilton's delicious Focaccia Egg Torte. Everyone will enjoy this enormous egg sandwich that combines all your favorite brunch ingredients with a special Wilton twist.

Lean ham, eggs, lettuce and roasted red peppers nestled in-between homemade focaccia bread is quick and easy when using Wilton's 9-inch Performance Pan. Topped with fresh rosemary and red peppers, the torte won't come up short with your guests. Dress things up a bit by using Wilton's Easter Mini Metal Cutter Set on roasted red peppers to garnish with style.

Easter Paté

Make your day less stressful by preparing a dish the night before. The scrumptious Easter Paté in Wilton's Stand-up Lamb Pan is a perfect addition to brunch. The mouth-watering ingredients including tuna, cream cheese, and savory herbs are mixed together and folded into the Lamb Pan. Once the lamb is unmolded, garnish the side dish with a chive backdrop and serve with assorted crackers or rye bread. Don't forget the adorable lamb's red pepper eyes, parsley collar and chive smile!

Eggs in a Bread Basket

Sitting down to an Easter meal without eggs or bread would be like Christmas with no tree. Wilton has done an "egg-ceptional" job of combining the two with its delicious Eggs in a Bread Basket recipe.

Color raw eggs and once they've dried, place them in the center of the delectable dried fruit dough and bake. Move over hardboiled eggs ? there's a new colorful recipe in the kitchen this Easter!
