Party Food Ideas and Recipes

I'm all for the traditional kids party food, including sugary things like fairy bread and fatty things like pies and sausage rolls, as kids parties are a treat and special occasion for most kids. However, doesn't mean you can't include some healthy options. Fruit skewers are easy and look great which means the kids will want to eat them.

All you need to do is buy some seasonal brightly coloured fruit like mangoes, strawberries, bananas, rockmelon/honeydew melon, cut them into cubes/slices and thread them on to skewers. Other options:

• Add lollies like marshmallows and raspberries
• Hire/buy a small chocolate fountain for dipping in
• Or buy a chocolate dipping sauce in the pots from the supermarket (tastes like that chocolate flavouring you pour in milk or on ice cream)
