Easter Resurrection Cupcakes Recipe – He is Risen!

“He is not here; for he is risen!” Share the message of the gospel this spring with these Easter Resurrection Cupcakes. These open tomb cupcakes are an easy food craft for the kids.

Easter Resurrection Cupcakes

He is not here; for he is risen! Matthew 28:6

Through this food craft, you can share the message of the Gospel. Did you know Gospel means good news? Our good news is Christ died on the cross for our sins and rose again on the third day.  No works or actions of ours will get us through Heavens gates, only accepting him as our Lord and savior.

Our goal for these cupcakes is easy with a message of the Gospel. Either make a boxed cupcakes recipe or ask your grocery store’s bakery if you can have some un-iced cupcakes.  Chocolate or vanilla cupcakes are fine. We used vanilla, but chocolate would definitely look more like soil!  You can whip up this food craft in just a few minutes.
