Creating fun and memorable parties starts in the kitchen! There is just something so amazing about dishing up a fun party treat you baked yourself!  These simple rice krispy treats are a great way to say, wham! pow! for your party.

How to use Rice Krispy Treats for a Superhero Party

If you are planning a superhero party, using superhero themed rice krispy treats are super duper simple.  Once they are whipped up, you just need to put them out on a cute plate that matches your theme.  Unlike other party treats, they don’t need to be refrigerated.

Rice Krispies are also a guaranteed crowd pleaser no matter the age of your party guests.  There is just something about those delicious little cereal snacks that get people excited like opening day of an Avengers movie!

These particular treats were made for our girly superhero party, so they were made in a soft pink and teal.  However, one of the benefits of making your own is that you can make these yummy little guys in any color you want to match your party spread.

Throwing a superman party?  Think red, yellow, blue.

Batman party?  Black, yellow and blue.

Captain America your guy?  Red, white and blue.

Easily adaptable to fit your favorite character or guest of honor!

 

Superhero Rice Krispy Treats Tutorial: STEP by STEP

Alright, let’s break down how to make these super cute and super simple treats.

Materials:

 

Step 1:

Make your Rice Krispies.  We use the classic recipe from Kellogg’s.  You will want to make them in a 9×13 pan and keep them relatively thin so they are easier to cut and retain their shape. 

Cut Rice Krispy treats with the starburst cookie cutter.

Step 2:

Mix your white fondant with the desired colors of gel food coloring.  Using gel coloring is much preferred to water based coloring as it won’t dilute the fondant and get too sticky. 

Make sure to save some white fondant for the letters.

Step 3:

Once you have the desired colors of fondant, roll it out to 1/4 inch thick and using the star burst cookie cutter, cut a fondant topper for each treat.  Allow the fondant to harden a bit, but not completely.  Leaving the bottom a little “wet” allows the fondant to stick directly to the top of the treats.  

You can also use simple white frosting like “glue” by putting a thin layer on top of the Rice Krispies and then adding the fondant to the top (once fondant is completely hardened.)

Step 4:

Roll out white fondant to 1/4 inch thick.  Use letter punch fondant cutters to punch out the letters you want on top.  I HIGHLY recommend using the letter cutters.  I cut the letters out by hand and it took FOREVER.  Next time I make these, I am 100% using the letter cutters!  

Allow letters to harden.

Using small drops of water, attach letters to fondant starbursts.  Just a small drop of water per letter is enough to adhere the fondant, once the water has dried.

Easy peasy and ready to eat!!
