Spreading Eid Love From a Distance

Get this cute Happy Eid wreath from Modern Eid

Celebrating Eid will be different this year amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Although you can’t be together, you can still spread Eid cheer and celebration! We love the idea of making homemade baked goods delivering them contactless to a loved one’s doorstep. It let’s them know you’re thinking of them and can make you feel a bit closer during the quarantine holiday.

Here are some easy recipe ideas we’re loving: 

Date Cake

Oreo Truffles

Chocolate Chip Cookies

Coffee Cake

You can pick up some pastry boxes from Target or Michaels and add a sweet note to the box for delivery. We’ve all become bakers while under quarantine anyway, haven’t we? 

And don’t forget to get some face-to-face in and set up a zoom call for Eid day and connect with your loved ones! To add a special touch, check out our blog post Digital Invites for Virtual Celebrations.

Sending you continued prayers and Eid Mubarak to all celebrating!
