A manufacturing method that is capable of forming an electrode on any part of a surface of a sintered ceramic body in accordance with a simple approach, and a ceramic electronic component manufactured by the method. The method for manufacturing a ceramic electronic component includes steps of preparing a sintered ceramic body containing a metal oxide, irradiating an electrode formation region on a surface of the ceramic body with a laser to partially lower resistance of the ceramic body, thereby forming a low-resistance portion, and subjecting the ceramic body to plating to deposit a plated metal serving as an electrode on the low-resistance portion, and growing the plated metal to extend over the entire electrode formation region.
