While candy shops on Staten Island and all around the world sell chocolate bunnies to celebrate Easter, one Staten Island store takes a "cheesy" approach to the holiday.

For more than 20 years, Novelli's Pork Store in Bay Terrace has been creating mozzarella bunnies for their customers' Easter tables. The rabbits, complete with olive eyes and a roasted red pepper for a nose, are handmade from freshly pulled cheese curd in the store. Owners say this season they've already sold about 300 salty bunnies.

The store's owner, John Spadaro, says "feels like you're doing something unique and special for people that they're not going to walk in any store or supermarket and be able to see something like this or get something like this."

You can get your mozzarella bunny garnished with antipasto, or plan on decorating it yourself.
