# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's a conversation starter that makes guests feel like you've put real thought into entertaining, even though it comes together in just 20 minutes.
  • Everyone, from toddlers to grandparents, gets that spark of joy when they see it—the Instagram-worthy moment that feels effortless.
  • You're serving real, whole foods with no cooking required, so you can spend your energy on presentation instead of stress in the kitchen.
02 -
  • Prep your ingredients in advance and keep them in separate small bowls in the refrigerator; this makes assembly feel like play rather than work and prevents any ingredient from getting warm or soggy.
  • The black olive outline is non-negotiable—it's what transforms random pretty food into a recognizable bunny, so make it bold and clear rather than subtle.
03 -
  • Chill all your ingredients before you start assembling; cold ingredients hold their shape better and feel fresher on the palate when people eat them.
  • Do the black olive outline first and step back—if the bunny silhouette is clear and recognizable, everything else is just decoration and the whole thing will work beautifully.
