Snowy & Holly’s Holiday Ornament Fruit Skewers

“Deck the skewers with festive fruit fun!

These cheerful treats are a merry mix of color, shape, and holiday magic—perfect for a Christmas in July snack or a North Pole-themed party. Kids will love building their own mini “ornament” kabobs that sparkle like a string of lights!

🍓 Ingredients:

  • Red grapes
  • Green grapes
  • Cantaloupe (cut into stars or snowflakes using small cookie cutters)
  • Strawberries (hulled and halved)
  • Mini marshmallows
  • Kiwi slices
  • Festive drink stirrers, lollipop sticks, or wooden skewers
  • Optional: shredded coconut, white sprinkles or powdered sugar

❄️ Directions:

  1. Prepare the fruit – Wash and dry all fruit. Use small cookie cutters to shape cantaloupe into stars, snowflakes, or bells.
  2. Build your skewers – Let kids thread fruits onto the sticks in any pattern they like—grapes can look like ornaments, strawberries like Santa hats, and cantaloupe stars top it all off!
  3. Add a marshmallow “snowball” – Finish the skewer with a mini marshmallow on top or bottom. You can even roll the marshmallows into little “snowballs” or flatten large marshmallows and use a mini-star cookie cutter to cut out snowflakes.
  4. Serve chilled – Arrange on a platter and pop in the fridge until snack time. Just before serving sprinkle shredded coconut, white sprinkles or powdered sugar over the skewers for an extra winter-like scene!

🎁 Tip: Want to turn it into an activity? Set up a “build-your-own” fruit skewer station with bowls of pre-cut fruit, skewers, and a photo of Snowy the Mouse nearby for inspiration!
