Easter Carrot Treat Bag

Easter Carrot Treat Bags: A Sweet and Simple DIY Gift

There’s something about Easter that brings out my inner craft-loving side. Maybe it’s the pastel colors, the adorable bunny decorations, or the excuse to eat chocolate for breakfast (don’t judge me).

But with all the egg hunts, family gatherings, and last-minute school treats, I need something cute, quick, and easy. Enter: Easter Carrot Treat Bags.

These little treats are a breeze to make, and they’re perfect for kids, teachers, neighbors, or anyone who deserves a little festive pick-me-up. Plus, they require zero crafting skills. If you can pour candy into a bag and tie a ribbon, you’ve got this!

These are the perfect addition to your Easter party or use them as prizes for your Easter Games or Easter Treasure hunts.

What You’ll Need

Cone-shaped bags – These give the treat bag its carrot-like shape.
Orange Reese’s Pieces – Because they’re the perfect shade of carrot orange (and delicious, obviously).
Green ribbon – This ties the whole look together, literally.

How to Make Easter Carrot Treat Bags

Fill ‘Em Up: Take a cone-shaped bag and fill it with Reese’s Pieces. You can fill them as much or as little as you like, but I say go big. Easter is a time for generosity, right?

Tie it Up: Gather the top of the bag and tie it closed with a piece of green ribbon. If you’re feeling fancy, make a bow. If you’re just trying to survive the day, a simple double knot works just fine.

Trim as Needed: If the tops of the bags are looking a little too long, just trim them down with scissors.

Boom. You’re done. Admire your handiwork, snap a picture for Instagram, and bask in the glow of being that mom who actually pulled off a Pinterest-worthy craft.

Tips & Tricks for Extra Cuteness

Fancy Ribbon Edges: Cut the ends of the ribbon at an angle or fold the ribbon in half and snip it diagonally to create a ‘V’ shape.
Mix It Up: Not a fan of Reese’s Pieces? Try orange jelly beans, M&Ms, or even goldfish crackers for a fun non-candy option.
Add a Tag: Want to make these extra special? Tie on a little gift tag with a sweet Easter message.
Make Them Bigger or Smaller: Use different-sized cone bags to adjust the portion size, great for party favors or class gifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I make these ahead of time?
Absolutely! Just store them in a cool, dry place so the candy doesn’t melt or stick together.

Q: Where can I find cone-shaped bags?
Most craft stores carry them, or you can find them online. If you’re in a pinch, a piping bag (like for frosting) works too!

Q: What if I can’t find orange Reese’s Pieces?
You can pick out the orange ones from a regular pack (and eat the rest, consider it a mom tax), or swap in another orange candy like Skittles.

Q: Are these good for classroom treats?
Yes! Just check for allergy restrictions, since Reese’s Pieces contain peanut butter.

Q: Can I use something other than ribbon?
Sure! Twist ties, pipe cleaners, or even green raffia work just as well.
