Welcome! Most children are on summer break and they will be asking for snacks lol. I have been making these handy snacks for years. I make a bunch and put in the refrigerator this way the children can have a snack quickly.
I just buy a large pack of Styrofoam cups from Walmart. This snack idea is very flexible, the base for the pudding snacks start with honey graham crackers. You can use chocolate , vanilla or banana cream puddings as you see I'm using the banana cream. I had some bananas to use up so I just cut them up put a bit of lemon juice so they won't turn brown added them tothe pudding and graham crackers and there you have it. I also have a can of real whipped cream for topping.
The other day I did chocolate pudding and graham crackers with cream on top. Today it's orange jello and strawberry jello. If you have fruit on hand you can toss it in with the jello.
I place an oblong cake pan in the fridge this holds all the cups nicely. Also I buy boxes of fold top baggies to put on each cup to keep fresh.
Trust me the snack cups are a great idea! You can also fill with fresh fruit, you can buy 3 different kinds of salty snack such as cheezits, mini pretzels and maybe potato sticks mix them up fill the cups and they will enjoy that as well.
Keep them happy and give it a try! The options are endless. I've even filled the cups with cherrios and raisins then when they are ready for their snack just add milk.
With just a bit of prep work you can make the kiddies happy and save yourself some time as well.
Happy Summer!
