Looking for a fun food art idea alt hat the kids can do all on their own? Waffle food art faces!
You can do all kinds of faces for all kinds of occasions! Daddy food art for Father’s Day! Santa food art for Christmas! Mommy food art for Mother’s Day, leprechaun food art for St. Patrick’s day, kid food art for birthdays… The list goes on and I’m sure you get the idea.
Kids love to decorate their waffles… It’s super quick to throw a couple bowls of fruit or other items to decorate and then let the kids go at it! If we’re going for a specific look, I’ll decorate my waffle first and then they will copy. But sometimes its fun to just see what they come up with!
We made ours with little strawberry and blueberry bow ties! Banana and chocolate chip eyes, Apple mouth and cashew ears! It was so easy and fun!
We made a special peanut butter and cream cheese topping for the hair and to use as glue! It is delish!
