Super-cute Easter Chocolate Nests
The no‑fuss favourite that always sells out first.
Chocolate nest cupcakes are a nostalgic Easter staple: quick to make, kid‑friendly, and ideal for anyone who wants a charmingly simple bake that will get snaffled up in no time. For the super-simplified option of just Shredded Wheat mixed with chocolate, they are brilliant for batch‑prepping, and involve zero oven time and just one fridge. However, our recipe is a delightful bake-able option that will have queues forming.
Chocolate Easter nests are perfect for:
- School bake sales
- Office ‘grab and go’ treats
- Family-friendly fundraising activities
These bakes embody the spirit of our Bake Off for Take Off – joyful, and guaranteed to bring people together in support of lifesaving missions across Devon.

Utterly comforting hot-cross buns
Hot cross buns are a warm, spiced classic for sharing and fundraising, perfect for a special breakfast treat and the ideal comfort food.
Freshly baked hot cross buns always draw a crowd. Their comforting aroma is sure to tempt passers‑by, making them an excellent way to boost donations at any Easter‑themed event.
Toast them in situ for an irresistible buttery treat, or package them up for supporters to take home to enjoy. Events like bake sales, coffee mornings, and afternoon teas all help keep our crews ready to respond as the longer days of spring mean more people are out and about and in need of our support.

Entirely adorable Easter sugar cookies
Our Easter sugar cookies recipe makes bright, colourful biscuits that are perfect for decorating. You can sell them as individual beautifully decorated bites, or package up plain biscuits with a decorating kit for take-home activity packs for families to have fun with over the Easter holidays.
These cheerful biscuits are as fun to decorate as they are to eat. Pick your cookie cutter shape! Easter sugar cookies can be shaped into bunnies, chicks, eggs and other springtime favourites, making them ideal for children and adults alike. They’re particularly great if you want to:
- Offer decorate your own cookie stations
- Sell packaged cookie bundles with cheerful ribbons
- Create something colourful for pop-up stalls and fundraising displays
