Easter Treats Await at Lovin Oven

Bunny cookies, lamb cakes and "Birds' Nests"—oh my!

Easter may be just a few days away, but there's still time to pick up some goodies for your kids' Easter baskets.

The cases and shelves at Lovin Oven Cakery are bursting with everything from Easter-themed sugar cookies, cupcakes and other treats.

There are six varieties of Easter sugar cookies, said Jennifer Joel, manager at the Libertyville shop.

"We've gone through a couple hundred in the last few days," Joel said, adding that the favorite is the bunny-shaped cookie.

There are also "Birds' Nests," which feature chow mien noodles covered in chocolate and shaped to look like a bird's nest. The nests are filled with blue candy eggs.

"That's the good thing about (Lovin Oven)—there are so many things to look at," said Joel.

Customers can also find the popular lamb cakes and sheep cupcakes.

What are the most popular non-Easter items?

The red velvet cupcakes, eclairs, and the tuxedo and red velvet cake slices, Joel said.

Lovin Oven has two locations:

  • 355 N. Milwaukee Ave., Libertyville
  • 2207 N. Route 83, Round Lake Beach
