CUTEST MOVIE NIGHT-IN SNACK TRAY
The key to making an unforgettable movie night snack tray is to pick the cutest tray of course, but then think about what your family or guests love the most. Is it popcorn? Candies? Cheese and crackers? Once you've listed your favorite treats, follow the simple steps below to create a beautiful and mouthwatering spread.
WHERE TO BUY THE CUTEST MOVIE NIGHT SNACK TRAY
To get started, you'll first need to get your hands on one of these delightful toddler car-shaped dinner trays. They are designed to encourage picky eaters to finish their meals while presenting the food in an exciting way.
Lucky for you, these trays are not all that hard to find! You can this Pink Bamboo Tray on Walmart online or you can get the Car Dinner Tray at various online retailer and individual sellers on Amazon. I don't believe you can find them in-store.
The dinner car tray comes in three different colors, Green Car, Blue Car and Pink Car.
ULTIMATE MOVIE NIGHT SNACK TRAY THEMES
Now that you've got your hands on the perfect car-shaped dinner tray, it's time to fill it up with an assortment of scrumptious movie snacks!
Here are some ideas to get your creative juices flowing:
- Trendy Pink: This is the angle I went for by doing a pink-theme. Hello Barbie craze. I added Popcorn, Pink Starburst, Watermelon Sour Patch Candy, Ring Pops and Rainbow SweeTART Ropes.
- The Classic: Fill your tray compartments with popcorn, M&M's, cheese cubes, and pretzels for a balanced mix of sweet and salty.
- Movie Themed: Choose snacks based on the movie you're watching. For instance, if you're watching a movie set in Italy, include some Italian-inspired antipasti, or go for alien-themed treats for a sci-fi movie night.
- The DIY: Let everyone fill their own car movie night tray. Set out all of your movie snacks and let everyone choose their favorites. Easy peasy.
- The Candy Shop: Go for a colorful display of gummy bears, licorice, Skittles, and chocolate-covered raisins.
- Healthy & Delicious: Opt for a nutritious selection featuring veggie sticks, hummus, fruit kabobs, and whole-grain crackers.
- International Delight: Choose treats from various countries such as Japanese Pocky, British shortbread, or Mexican churros for a global experience.
Get creative or keep it simple, you could go either way and everyone will still love this cute movie tray.
MAKE MOVIE NIGHT EXTRA FUN
The key to creating an unforgettable movie night snack tray is to think about what your audience loves the most. Is it popcorn? Candies? Cheese and crackers?
Once you've picked your favorite treats, follow these simple steps to create a beautiful and mouthwatering spread:
- Pop That Popcorn: The star of any movie night snack tray is, of course, popcorn! Prepare a batch of popcorn in your preferred style, whether it's classic buttery, sweet and salty kettle corn, or even a gourmet popcorn mix.
- Mix and Match: Think of snacks in a variety of shapes, sizes, and textures to keep your tray interesting. Mix things up with sweet and salty treats like pretzel sticks, chocolate-covered almonds, or even flavored popcorn.
- Arrange Stylishly: Last but not least, master the art of presentation. Organize your treats by color and size, and don't forget to place similar items side by side to create a visually pleasing tray your family and friends will find hard to resist.
Now, all you have to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the entertainment — all while munching on an irresistible assortment of treats, of course!
