Can I use a different cake mix?

Yes! Chocolate, carrot cake, or even lemon cake mix would make a delicious variation for these Easter cupcakes.

Can I make these cupcakes ahead of time?

Yes! You can bake the cupcakes a day in advance and store them in an airtight container at room temperature. Add the chocolate nests just before serving for the best texture.

What type of chocolate works best for the nests?

Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and even white chocolate all work well. Use high-quality melting chocolate for a smooth and glossy finish.

Can I use something other than shredded wheat for the nests?

Absolutely! Crushed pretzels, chow mein noodles, and shredded coconut are great alternatives. Just mix them into the melted chocolate, and shape into nests.

How do I store leftover cupcakes?

Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. If you need to keep them longer, refrigerate them for up to five days.
