Easter Candy Macadamia Bark Recipe

This delicious Easter Candy Macadamia Bark Recipe looks pretty on a dessert table, in a homemade Easter basket or as a special holiday gift.

One of my favorite things about Easter is the beautiful pastel colors of the decorations, little girls’ dresses, Easter eggs and Easter treats!

That’s one of the reasons I like this Easter Candy Macadamia Bark Recipe. It’s just so pretty to look at! 

But it’s not just pretty, it’s delicious too! As one of my very favorite candy bark recipes, this macadamia candy just has the perfect combination of flavors.

This sweet treat adds a special touch to an Easter dessert table, an Easter basket of homemade goodies or to any spring gathering.

You can also put the Easter candy bark in small cellophane bags and tie with pretty pastel ribbons to give to your guests as party favors.

The soft but bright colors of the candy combined with the ribbons makes a beautiful gift!

This Easter bark recipe is also pretty special because of the macadamia nuts. They have such a smooth, buttery texture and delicate, sweet nutty flavor. They’re perfect for blending with white chocolate.

If for some crazy reason you don’t like macadamia nuts, you can make this recipe with the candy alone, or you can substitute blanched almonds. They also have that light, almost white color.

We chose to use mini Robin Eggs and Reese’s Pieces eggs for our Easter bark, but you can choose any type of pastel candy you like.
