I have to admit that String Cheese is still one of my favorite snacks to keep on hand and not just for my son. They're perfect for me since I'm always trying to survive one hectic day after the next. My favorite busy snack lately is a handful of pretzels and String Cheese. I literally take a bite of cheese, then pretzel and repeat. It's so yummy and takes no preparation at all. Love that. Whether you are stocking up for yourself or your family, this clever snack hack will make it a little more festive.

How To Make String Cheese Flowers

These fun flower snacks are so simple to make in just minutes. Here is what you'll need:

  • String Cheese
  • Scrapbook Paper or Construction Paper
  • Pencil to trace shapes
  • Scissors
  • Non Toxic Glue or Glue Dots

The possibilities to create cute flowers are endless. I made two different varieties and used fun mix and match scrapbook paper patterns. The first one was somewhat of a Gerbera Daisy style flower. To make these, simply cut a circle out of your paper. Then secure a smaller circle in the center. Then, take your scissors to make snips all the way around the circle. To make these flowers pop, I pulled every other snipped "petal" outward. I love the way it came out.

The tulip cheese sticks were even easier. I traced a very simple tulip shape onto the back of my scrapbook paper, stacked a few sheets together and cut them out.

For the final touch to your String Cheese Flowers, you need some cute petals. I did some more mixing and matching to find fun petal patterns that would pop. String Cheese Flowers. Click to see how these cute flower treats are made. They'll make snack time extra fun in just minutes.

To put them together, flip your String Cheese around and secure the flower pieces to the back. I prefer using Glue Dots because they're so simple to use and no drying time is needed. Just stick and done.

I can't believe how cute these are. They are so versatile too - they could be used for so many different types of parties. But now I want cheese.
