SUPER FRUITY RICE TREATS

SUPER FRUITY RICE TREATS

These super fruity rice treats are full of flavor. Using both fruity rice cereal and fruity marshmallows makes these treats even better.

I’ve always been a fan of fruity foods for as long as I can remember. There’s just something about the extreme flavors that makes me want more. I was one of those children that passed up a chocolate bar but would take the Smarties, Skittles, and Sprees. My boyfriend always tells me I’m weird because I’d rather have something fruity over chocolate.

It’s not that I don’t like chocolate, it’s just not my favorite. I’ve actually started eating more chocolate recently. I’m trying to age my palate. I think it’s just stuck in the teenage years.

These super fruity rice treats would make any child jump for joy. The colors alone really make this treat super kid friendly. I didn’t want to use only fruity rice cereal when developing this treat because I didn’t want the flavor to be too pungent. If you follow my tips for the perfect rice krispies treats you can’t go wrong. 

Dipping these treats in white chocolate would really send them even more over the top.
