Children enjoy hands-on activities, so why not turn their dessert into one, too? We\u2019ve gathered some of our favorite ideas for non-cake treats for your little fairytale fans that will also be an entertaining end to your party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.princessparty.com\/img\/party-ideas\/hands-on-dessert-ideas-for-your-princess-party.jpg\" alt=\"Hands-On Dessert Ideas for Your Princess Party\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An ice cream sundae bar. Supply a couple of flavors of ice cream and toppings like sprinkles, cut fruit, chocolate syrup, and whipped cream, and serve them in pretty dishes corresponding to your princess party theme. For a somewhat healthier alternative, frozen yogurt can work just as well, and the kids won\u2019t be able to tell the difference!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cookie decorating station. Prepare the sugar cookies beforehand using shaped cookie cutters like crowns, wands, glass slippers, hearts, and stars, and set them out on a table with plenty of room. Different colors of frosting, sprinkles, and small candies will be the perfect topping options. Edible glitter will add another bit of sparkle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A candy buffet. Supply the kids with treat bags or keepsake containers and allow them to fill them with their favorite candies. Set out a variety of candies in pretty glass jars and containers (more double duty: dessert and decorations!) in your princess party color scheme. Gumballs, M&amp;Ms, candy-coated nuts and pretzels, gumdrops, and individually wrapped chocolates all come in hundreds of colors, and are easily found online and in grocery store bulk sections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An activity and dessert all in one?
