If you find that eco-activism gives you a huge appetite, these different Earth Day treat recipes are a great way to treat yourself while also celebrating mother gaia. From planetary cereal treats to deceiving cactus cakes and pistachio desserts, these desserts make April 22 sweeter than ever.
When you're not busy saving the world by planting trees, petitioning world leaders or practicing other green acts at home, an Earth Day treat makes a yummy snack. Using blue food dye and green frosting, you can make your own Rice Krispie globe (with a candy surprise inside). If cupcakes are more to your taste, you can try recreating Alana Jones-Mann's prickly recipe. Lovers of marzipan can also try an earthy pistachio cake, which is also infused with lemon.
