We thoroughly enjoyed this season of SpongeBob.  It was awesome introducing my kids to fun characters that I remember watching when I was young.  Squidward is (and always has been) my favorite character, with his often ill-timed irritation. 

My kids, of course loved Sandy and Gary!  And they are begging me to make them some Krabby Patties!  

 

How to use SpongeBob Rice Krispies

SpongeBob Rice Krispies can be used in so many creative and adorable ways for your celebration. These treats are bright, goofy, fun, and instantly recognizable—even with the simplest decorations. You can display them on a dessert table alongside ocean themed goodies, or arrange them on a bright yellow or blue platter for maximum pop. Kids love spotting SpongeBob’s silly face on their snacks, and these treats double as décor, making your table look more festive without any extra crafting.

They also make fantastic party favors. Simply wrap each treat in clear cellophane, tie it with cute ribbon (yellow, blue, or coral colors work great), and add a SpongeBob tag for an easy takeaway treat. If you’re hosting a viewing party, set up a “SpongeBob Snack Station” with themed popcorn, fruit cups, and these Rice Krispies as the main attraction.

You can also incorporate these treats into fun activities—like a “Build Your Own Bikini Bottom Dessert Plate,” or place them into themed lunchboxes or trays for an interactive snack time moment. SpongeBob Rice Krispies are adorable, effortless, and work with any size celebration.

If you love SpongeBob….grab your copy of Season 11 and then let’s make some fun SpongeBob treats to enjoy while you watch it!  

These fun SpongeBob treats are simple to make and would be perfect for a DVD viewing or a birthday party for a SpongeBob loving Tween!  They are easy enough to make with your kids and as yummy as a most tasty Krabby Patty in Bikini Bottom!

 

SpongeBob Rice Krispies Treats Tutorial: STEP by STEP

Ready to learn how to make these fun little SpongeBob inspired treats?  Here is the step by step tutorial to get you ready to go…

Materials:

Step 1:

Prep Rice Krispies Treats.  If you are making them yourself, go ahead and follow the directions on the recipe and then cut to desired size.

If you bought pre-made treats (that’s totally what I did!) you can use them either at full size, or cut them in half and make mini-sized treats.

Step 2:

Lay a Rice Krispies Treat on the Parchment paper and trace with a pen or pencil.  Cut the rectangle out to use as a guide for cutting your fondant.

Using either yellow fondant or white fondant mixed with yellow food coloring, roll your fondant out to 1/4 inch thick. Make sure to leave some white fondant for teeth.

Cut one rectangle per treat using your parchment pattern and set aside to start firming up. 

You will want the rectangles to be mostly hardened before you start decorating. 

Step 3:

Roll out the white fondant to 1/4 thick.  Cut two very small rectangles for each treat and set aside to harden.  These will be SpongeBob’s teeth.

Step 4:

Once yellow fondant rectangles are mostly hardened, flip them over and use the underside, which will be a little softer.  To ensure that the candy pieces stick to the fondant, use a small drop of water per item. 

The water will act like “glue” to help the candy stick to the fondant.  

Add the candy eyes.  Draw the eye lashes and mouth line with the edible marker. 

Then pink confetti sprinkles out of your sprinkle mix (two per treat) and add them to the corner of the mouth lines with a small drop of water each.  

Add the two fondant teeth, also with a small drop of water.  Allow to sit for 5 minutes before moving.

Step 5:

Place the SpongeBob faces on top of the Rice Krispies treats.  The stickiness of the treats should hold the fondant in place, but if you want to add a thin layer of white frosting in between (either for taste or to be extra sure they stick) this is also a great option.

Easy peasy and done!

Looking for more ideas for a SpongeBob Viewing Party

A SpongeBob viewing party is such a fun, low pressure way to celebrate! You can keep the setup simple or go all out with ocean themed décor, beach accents, and bright party supplies inspired by Bikini Bottom. Think tropical garlands, seashells, bubbles, pineapple shaped décor, and ocean blue balloons. Add comfy seating, blankets, or beanbags to create a cozy “underwater theater” feel.

Food can be adorable and easy—SpongeBob Rice Krispies, pineapple skewers, goldfish crackers, “Sandy’s Nuts,” “Krabby Patty” sliders, or simple blue Jell-O cups. Serve everything in themed cups or snack trays to tie the design together.

Kids love interactive moments during a viewing party—try SpongeBob bingo, character coloring sheets, or a silly “SpongeBob Laugh Challenge.” These little additions make your gathering feel more memorable while staying low effort.

Whether your viewing party is just for family or includes a group of friends, themed treats and thoughtful touches turn a regular TV moment into a fun, unforgettable experience.

If you are wanting to plan an amazing SpongeBob viewing party…here are some additional ideas:

 

Coordinating SpongeBob Party Supplies

The easiest way to serve all the glorious party treats you make and buy is with some themed party ware. This is budget friendly and keeps the design flowing through every part of your party. Definitely a must buy!!!

When you’re hosting a SpongeBob themed celebration—whether for a birthday or a simple viewing party—using themed party ware makes everything feel instantly more polished and fun. Even when your desserts are simple (hello, no bake Rice Krispies!), themed plates, napkins, and cups turn a regular snack table into an adorable Bikini Bottom inspired display. Themed tableware brings pops of color, recognizable characters, and playful shapes that make your whole spread feel intentional and cohesive.

It also makes setup incredibly easy. You don’t need dozens of decorations or a complicated backdrop when your tableware already brings bright ocean blues, sunny yellows, and that signature SpongeBob personality. A few cute trays or patterned napkins can highlight your treats beautifully without any extra effort. Plus, cleanup is quick and painless—a huge perk for busy parents.

Whether you’re styling just desserts or a full food table, themed party ware helps the design flow seamlessly throughout your celebration and gives your SpongeBob treats the perfect stage to shine.

You can also use some awesome SpongeBob party supplies.  Here are some fantastic options that can easily help you plan and stay budget friendly!
