Creative food craft ideas
This puppy chow mix or trail mix is perfect for Easter picnics or gatherings. Fill a large jar with this mix and pop a nice label on for a great “Family” Easter gift for neighbours or loved ones. The colors are soft and pastel and just ooze springtime.
Chocolate and peanut butter are my two favorite flavors. This will not be for those with allergens, unless you replace the peanut butter with soy nut. If you can shape them like an egg, you could use this as a treat for Easter. I’ll have some gluten-free, dairy-free and sugar free options for later.

This is a great family craft to do over Valentine’s weekend or maybe do it before and have the love shacks on display for Valentine’s Day.

Fudge even the lactose intolerant can enjoy. There is nothing worse, than having to say no to a child or adult at the sweets table. The recipe uses almond milk, butter alternative and cocoa powder. I’m not sure you would be able to tell the difference. I might have to give it a try, sounds less fattening too.

I love trifles! They are easy to make and yet so elegant looking. You can make them in a big clear bowl for everyone to help themselves to or create individual servings as pictured. A quick dessert that can also be made with cake or cookies. Or you could make a healthier version using fruit and yoghurt.

I love peppermint, but we do have a lot left over from building gingerbread houses, advent calendars and to give to cashiers, especially if they have a mean customer before you. I like to save mine and mix it in my ice cream, put in my hot cocoa and just munch on them whenever.
