Seriously. I have an obsession. I can not seem get enough Red, White, and Blue crammed into this festive week. I’m dressing my family in it, I’m creating food in it,… Heck, I’m dreaming in it! Red, White, and Blue makes me happy. Food makes me happy. Put them together and here is what we’ve got. 
You can never go wrong with Rice Krispy Treats. Add a sucker stick, and you have got one perfect treat. EVERY age loves this dessert and the creative possibilities are endless.
To create these patriotic stars, simply make a batch of Rice Krispy Treats. Use a star cookie cutter to shape. Stick a sucker or popsicle stick in the center. Now for the fun part,…grab SPRINKLES! Using the straight edge of a piece of paper, create straight lines on the treats. Spread a dab of honey on that area so the sprinkles stick and sprinkle away.
Wouldn’t these make the perfect patriotic ‘sucker bouquet’?
Now I can’t claim this adorable idea all on my own. Thanks to Kraft foods for the inspiration!
Happy 4th of July! Make sure to share some patriotic stars at your Neighborhood Parade!

Thank you so much for featuring these! You totally inspired me to make them as Fairy wands for my daughter’s Fairy party! They were such a hit, and a total lifesaver as I needed more treats that were dairy-free! I blogged about them here: http://tuffetblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/fairy-feast.html Thanks again!

I would suggest making the treats traditionally in a pan, “ice” with white candy melts, quickly add the red and blue sprinkles in stripes (with white showing,) then cut with star shapes and add stick.

What a fun, and yummy treat! The kids will absolutely love these! Just curious, how did you get the sprinkle star shape?
Shelley says
I used a star cookie cutter and then used honey to apply the sprinkles. 🙂 Hope that helps.

Yum!!! Those are going to make a showing this weekend. They may not be as nice as yours, but I have had a hankering for rice-crispy treats for a while now. This looks like a great excuse to make a few.
