Instructions:

  • Step 1: Prepare the Cheese Stick - Begin by unwrapping your cheese stick. This will serve as the butterfly's body, so make sure it is ready to go.
  • Step 2: Cut the Pipe Cleaner - Using scissors, cut the pipe cleaner into a length of about 6 inches. This will be long enough to create the antennae of your butterfly.
  • Step 3: Form the Antennae - Fold the pipe cleaner in half to create a V-shape at one end, forming the antennae. Twist the ends to secure them together and give them a playful curl.
  • Step 4: Assemble the Snack Bag - In your Ziploc bag, add the cheese stick as the center of the butterfly. On one side, place the fresh fruit, and on the other side, add the mini sandwich crackers.
  • Step 5: Insert the Antennae - Finally, slide the folded end of the pipe cleaner into the top of the cheese stick, allowing the antennae to stand up.
  • Step 6: Seal and Enjoy! - Seal the Ziploc bag and your DIY Butterfly Snack Bag is ready to be enjoyed!

Notes

  • Consume the snacks within 24 hours for the best taste and texture.
  • Keep the prepared bags in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Store the cheese stick separately from the fruits and crackers to prevent sogginess.
