• Cover with pastel-colored frosting using a star tip, basket weave or flat-ice technique.

• Cut two slits on opposite ends of top of base with a sharp knife.

• Fold an 18-inch piece of foil lengthwise several times, making a 1/4-inch wide, flat and sturdy handle.

• Braid ribbon onto the foil and place each end of the ribbon "handle" in the slits of the base as you arch it.

• Finally, decorate top of the basket with candy eggs, jelly beans and colored grass, made by mixing coconut and green dye.
