The most delicious spring recipes for all your spring celebrations and gatherings to impress and delight your guests!
Who’s ready for spring?!
While we have no control over the weather, we have a full control in the kitchen. And we can bring spring as early as we want to. Am I right?
So, if you’re in for a mood for some spring baking, I’ve gathered up some of my favorite light and tasty recipes for you.
1. Spring Cakes
Angel Food Cake
Nothing beats light and airy, tall and elegant, classic Angel Food cake smothered with honey glazed strawberry sauce. If this doesn’t scream spring, I don’t know what does!
Mini Carrot Cakes with Candied Pecans
Not only these mini carrot cakes are super tasty, they are also so darn adorable to look at! Plus, it’s a readers’ favorite!

Carrot Cheesecake
This creamy delicious cheesecake doesn’t taste like carrots at all.
Smooth and creamy tinted cheesecake with rich and nutty crust! Ah, and the tangy sour cream topping is to die for too!
Classic Carrot Cake
And let’s not forget to have this rustic carrot cake this season. Super moist and dense cake layers filled with classic cream cheese filling! So-so-goooood!!
2. Spring Brunch Menu

Smoked salmon quiche with creamy soft custard and fresh asparagus and dill – a perfect brunch for special occasions or a nice light dinner served with fresh green salad.

3. Mini Spring Treats
Mini Fruit Pizzas
These cutest little mini pizzas are bright and colorful! They bring an instant cheer to any spread!

You’ve got to try these Mini Caramel Lava Cakes while you still can get your hands on those Cadbury mini caramel eggs! It’s DIVINE! Especially topped with homemade vanilla ice cream!
Mini Raspberry Lemon Tartlets
Ok, how cute are these little tartlets? Light and tangy, this is an ultimate spring dessert! Bonus: super simple to make with just a few ingredients!
Mini Strawberry Pies
Super flaky pie crust cups filled with honey glazed juicy sweet strawberries and bejeweled with turbinado sugar.
4. Refreshing Spring Drinks
Rainbow Smoothie
I don’t usually make carefully layered smoothies, like this one, on daily basis. (Not even on weekly, or monthly basis, to be honest!)
It’s reserved for special occasions only, and I think welcoming spring is totally considered that special occasions. Wouldn’t you agree?
Strawberry Mojito
A big batch of refreshing mojito full of summer taste!! Yes, yes, please!! Insanely refreshing and delicious!
Moscato Sangria
Another delicious batch drink you could make for Easter brunch is this fancy-looking sangria!
It takes bare minutes to make it, impressive and oh-so-delicious! Just imagine having a bowl full of boozy fruits at the end.
Pineapple Coconut Spritzer
If you’re in the mood for some tropical flavors, this one is for you! It’s as refreshing as it sounds!
Now, tell me what’s your most favorite spring recipe?
