The Jelly Belly Jelly Bean Bunny- In- Egg Cookie
I have been a huge fan of Jelly Belly Jelly Beans since I started working on the Martha Show years ago. Martha’s Holiday sets were always something to marvel at and Easter was no exception. We would fill jars upon jars with Jelly Belly’s beautiful, colorful and delicious candy… jelly beans, malt balls, bunny corn (it was then that I learned there is a candy corn for all seasons!). This year, I was so honored when I was asked to create a cookie project using Jelly Belly’s beautiful jelly beans! My bunny- in- egg cookie immediately came to mind because the egg portion of the cookie lends itself to being a bit 3D. Here’s a behind the scenes look at our fun candy and cookie filled video shoot of the Jelly Belly Bunny- In- Egg- Cookie…
Good Morning NYC! Nothing like a 7:30 am call time to get the party started!
All of our Bunny- In- Egg Beauties arrived safely- whew! I love that this bunny can look to the side or straight ahead.
Pat Degliuomini, MSLO Senior Sales Manager, samples a jelly bean egg cookie that did not fare as well on the trip over!
Set stylist, Elaina Sullivan, works her magic on a beautiful vase of flowers.
The most beautiful Easter color inspiration… Fans of Martha Stewart Living will recognize these beautiful eggs from last year’s Easter issue. I love them!
Love this simple arrangement of cookie beauties on one of Martha’s vintage artisan wood boards. Simple and beautiful!
DP Phillip Leaman adjusts my microphone as Food Producer, Greta Anthony looks on and camera operator Rob Harris sets up his shots
We do a quick run through of jelly bean action and placement. This is one of the tricks to getting those incredibly beautiful close up shots.
Speaking of close ups, this Bunny- In- Egg certainly enjoyed his moment in the spotlight!
We also decorated our fluted egg cookies with Jelly Belly jelly beans- this is a great cookie to decorate with the kiddies! Decorate according to color and/ or flavor!
It was wonderful to meet Tim Nice , Partner and Co-Creative Director of Nice Advertising and Patricia Correia, Brand Manager of Jelly Belly (talk about a SWEET job!)
The Jelly Belly Bunny- In- Egg is a super fun cookie to decorate for Easter and a fun and delicious project to work on with friends and family! This is the most egg-cellent project for Easter Eve! Check out our how- to video here, then gather your supplies (get the bunny- in- egg cutter here and our Expert Icing Kit here) and get icing- I hope this inspires you! Xo Dani
