Patriotic snacks are so fun to make for summer events! Here are 3 simple ideas of patriotic snacks you can take to your next summer get-together.
I love a good holiday themed snack! Patriotic themed snacks are a fun way to add some flair to your summer parties! I’ve put together a list of three festive snack ideas that will work whether you are planning last minute or have plenty of time to prepare. Any of these red, white and blue snacks will be a hit for your Memorial Day or the 4th of July parties!
3 Patriotic Snacks to Make This Summer
1. Cake Pops
Cake pops are always a hit at our house! I usually have some leftover cake tops in the freezer, but if not I love Sally’s Baking Addiction’s recipe. They are so easy to make and can easily be transformed into a patriotic dessert! Just add some gel food coloring to your dipping white chocolate and top with some red, white and blue sprinkles.
2. Patriotic Buttercream Sugar Cookies
Of course, I have to include some decorated sugar cookies! These super cute cookies are simple to make with this buttercream frosting recipe. I used the size 4 piping tip for the stars and a small open star tip for the American flags. Trust me, these cookies won’t last long at your 4th of July party!
3. Patriotic Snack Mix
When you’re running really short on time, this simple snack is quick to make! Here’s what I included in this patriotic snack mix:
- Gummy sharks
- Dots
- Marshmallows
- Star-shaped cereal
- Chocolate-covered pretzels
To make things a little more patriotic, serve the snack mix in waffle cone bowls. Simply dip the small waffle cone bowls in melted white chocolate and cover with red sprinkles. Easy to serve and yummy!
