Adorable Easter Party Food Ideas
1. Sweet and Fruity Easter Carrots Party Food
How stinking adorable are these Carrot Chocolate Covered Strawberries for the Easter Sunday! While there’s no tutorial for them, you can see that they’ve just been dipped like regular chocolate-covered strawberries but with orange chocolate instead. (Just use orange food coloring in white chocolate). Make sure to leave the tops on all your strawberries to get the full “carrot” look. This can either be an Easter appetizer, dessert, or snack, it doesn’t matter!
Tips for dipping strawberries
- Gather the green leafy tops together and hold them by that part when dipping in the chocolate
- Make sure to have a flat plate or surface that is covered with parchment paper to lay the strawberries on when done dipping (This stops them from sticking and rolling)
- Once you’re done dipping all strawberries makes sure to place them in your refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
2. Fluffy and Fun Easter Party Pretzel Snacks
These adorable little lamb pretzel pops are almost too cute to eat! You can find the Wilton’s Decorating Kits that have all the supplies you’ll need to complete them OR you can create your own with the pretzel sticks, melted chocolate bark, and mini marshmallows, as well as black icing to create the faces and pink icing for the ears and nose features.
3. Easy to Make Easter Lamb Cake
While you’re lambing away, this is a great time to make this easy Lamb Cake! Just make a regular cake mix of your choosing, frost with white frosting, and add larger marshmallows, and use black icing to create the eyes and mouth. (The kids can even help complete this one). Oh, I want lots of bites from this cake!
How to Get Marshmallows to Stick
- Use a small dab of cookie icing to the back of your marshmallows
- Then stick to the surface you need
- In substitution, you could also use a small dab of melted white chocolate (when using white marshmallows)
4. Bunny Themed Easter Party Foods with Fluff
Peeps only come around one time of year in the bunny shapes! Grab a box and make these super easy sweet treats! These Peeps Bunny Pretzel Rods are so easy to make that the kids can help on each step! (Minus microwaving the chocolate for smaller kids). Cover your pretzel rods with the melted chocolate and then before it dries take a dab of the melted chocolate and add it on the back of the peep so you can stick it directly onto the pretzel stick. I wonder if we can also do this on some crackers?
5. Healthy snack ideas with the Bunny Head Fruit Platter
How about some healthy side dishes? Everyone loves food when it’s in the shape of something, especially if it’s holiday-themed like this Easter Bunny Fruit Platter. If you have picky eaters this is a great way to get them to try new things. Combine any fruits your family (or friends) love into the shape of an actual bunny and watch how everyone loves devouring it at the same time.
6. Sweet Easter Egg Fruit Pizza
Not a big fan of vegetables? Even the teenagers will dig into this pizza, create a fun and colorful Easter snack with this Easter Egg Fruit Pizza. You can mix and match the fruits needed (to avoid allergies, etc) and create a unique and fun dessert/appetizer treat for everyone! (Curious how the fruit stays put so well? It’s the frosting!)
7. Colorful Easter Party Food Idea with Rice Krispie Treats
You can usually find the marshmallow peeps in the four solid pastel colors around Easter to create these classic Peeps Rice Krispie Treats. but now they have so many different flavors you can combine and make so many more combinations of these! To create your marshmallow fluff, add a tablespoon of butter to every 3 oz of peeps you use and microwave. Then once you stir it together you can add your Rice Krispie cereal to the mix. I think this will go perfectly with a bit of cream cheese frosting!
8. Easy Cheese Ball Chick Recipe
Just in case you haven’t tried a cheese ball at a party yet, know that they go FAST! Throw in a themed cheese ball in the shape of a chick and we’re going to bet it won’t last very long either. You will need cream cheese, bacon (optional), hot sauce (also optional), and cheese to create this tasty appetizer. To give the cheese ball its orange “chick” color you just need to roll it in cheddar cheese after it’s done. Make sure to wrap it in plastic wrap before putting it in the fridge! Oh, perfect match for some mashed potatoes!
9. Skewer the Sweet and Healthy Easter Peeps Fruit Kabobs
Kids avoiding the veggies? We got you! As parents we know that kids love colorful things, so that means more colorful treats like these peeps fruit kabobs are going to be a HUGE hit with the kids, right? Combine grapes and other bright fruits with the marshmallow goodness of Easter peeps for a treat that will fly off the table. (Budget tip, grab fruit that is marked down one to two days before you are making your fruit kabobs). No dips needed!
Here’s a cute rainbow version!
Easter Party Food Skewer Supplies:
- Peeps (Bunnies)
- Marshmallows (small and large sizes)
- Mixed Fresh Fruit
- Skewers
- Black icing (Cookie icing)
10. Easter Bunny Cheese Ball
I think this Easter bunny cheese ball is easy enough for even me. If you have an Easter party that people are sensitive to spices then this cheese ball is perfect. You only need four ingredients to create this loaf of delicious cheese fluff. Combine your ingredients together and slowly mold them into your bunny shape (you can create smaller cheese balls for the head and tail). Put some healthy stuff around there, like asparagus, greek yogurt, candy eggs and more!
11. Bunny Ear Bread
Twist your rolls into bunny shapes to make these neat little bunny buns. What we love about these is how easy they are to make and how you can customize them with garlic, herbs, and cheese if you’d like, too! Super quick and easy bread dish to add to any meal. This puff pastry can go perfectly well with peanut butter too!
12. Sweet Treat Bunnies
These Cinnabunnies are a delicious addition to any early morning Easter party. You can customize them into different faces with the addition of almonds on them OR use chocolate chips to make faces too! (These just require refrigerated cinnamon rolls which you will pull apart and whatever you need for your faces!)
13. Orangely Delicious Carrot Snacks
If you really want to wow them, try out these carrot crescent rolls! You’ll just add orange food coloring to your unrolled and flattened refrigerated crescent rolls, cut them into strips, and then twist them into these fun carrot shapes. Recommended to use a shape to fold the crescent rolls around like an icing tube or other bakable round surface. Once done you can add your favorite egg salad inside!
14. Easter meal must-have: Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are a staple for us at Easter, and this year I think I’ll try these absolutely adorable bunny deviled eggs! These do require a few more ingredients than classic deviled eggs obviously, but if you’re going for shock and awe these will do it! (You will need radishes, black olives, and chives in addition to your regular ingredients for deviled eggs)
15. Quick and Easy Easter Party Deviled Chick Eggs
While you’re making deviled eggs, go ahead and make these adorable hatching Easter chick deviled eggs. These may be a bit easier than the bunny eggs as there aren’t as many small pieces to work with when creating the faces. You will still need black olives and either tomato or orange pepper for the beak to complete the chick look.
16. Easter Egg Breakfast Pops
If your kids aren’t really fans of the traditional Easter breakfast casseroles, they’ll surely go crazy for these healthy Easter egg breakfast popsicles, and although it’s not an Easter party in the morning, it can still be a great food idea! What they don’t know is that these sweet treats are actually healthy and good for them too! (Contains, yogurt, granola, and pieces of fruit). You can find these seasonal egg molds at most big box stores near you.
17. Easter Party Pretzel Snacks
While the other pretzel snacks used the pretzel rods, these Pretzel bunnies and chicks just require the classic round pretzels you can find in any store really. The trick to making these actually look like chicks is the placement of the facial features and even the “wing” made with the yellow chocolate. Once you’ve for the base chocolate colors on the pretzels the rest is easy face decorating!
