Birthday Snack Mix
I love getting creative with snack mixes … finding just the right mix of themed ingredients to mix together is so fun. Give me a theme and I’ll give you a snack mix!!
Further proof:
- Caramel Apple Munch Mix
- Mayflower Munch Mix
- Rainbow Snack Mix
- Easter Bunny Snack Mix
- O Christmas Tree Snack Mix
You should see me wandering down the aisles of candy, crackers, snacks and by the registers hunting down ingredients … well, honestly, never mind. I probably look a little “off” as I talk to myself quietly to contemplate if mini Oreos will make good wheels and if I can transform Bugles into birthday hats.
Oh, and the answer to that question is YES – I can transform Bugles into birthday hats!
So, here is a quick picture of my oh-so-fancy Bugles dipping station. Once the almond bark was melted, I dipped the Bugles in the almond bark, shook off the excess, placed them on my parchment lined baking sheet and added sprinkles. Sweet and salty birthday hats … done!!
And yes. I did. 😉
Ahem. Anyway …
I love serving snack mixes in individual servings in brightly colored nut cups, mini waffle cone bowls {like the Circus Snack Mix I shared at The Crafting Chicks}, mini paper bags, snow cone paper cones or even ice cream cones! It makes a great edible favor to send home with guests, too.
Happy birthday or a very merry UN-birthday! Whichever it is, let’s celebrate!!
