Themed Snacks and Appetizers
Elevate your party with these fun and flavorful appetizers themed after beloved Frozen characters. These are simple enough to prepare while still maintaining a visual appeal that really pops.
Olafs Noses Carrot Sticks with Dip
Our favorite snowman, Olaf, wouldn’t be complete without his signature carrot nose! Embrace this iconic detail with “Olaf’s Noses”: simple yet charming carrot sticks. Peel and cut the carrots into sticks, mimicking Olaf’s pointy nose. Arrange them artfully in a cup or bowl. For dipping, offer a selection of kid-friendly options like ranch dressing, hummus, or even a light cream cheese dip. You can even pipe the dip into small cups for each guest to have their own individual serving. Presentation is key! Consider adding a small card next to the carrots with the phrase “Olaf’s Noses” in a fun, whimsical font. You can also surround the carrot sticks with crushed ice to add to the Frozen ambiance.
Svens Reindeer Antlers Pretzel Sticks
Sven, Kristoff’s loyal reindeer companion, is a lovable character known for his impressive antlers. Pay homage to Sven with “Sven’s Reindeer Antlers”: pretzel sticks dipped in chocolate or caramel. Purchase pretzel sticks of varying lengths. Melt your choice of chocolate (milk, dark, or white) or caramel in a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Dip the pretzel sticks into the melted chocolate or caramel, covering about two-thirds of the stick. Before the chocolate or caramel sets, you can sprinkle the antlers with crushed nuts, sprinkles, or even edible glitter for an extra touch of sparkle. Allow the pretzel sticks to harden completely on a sheet of parchment paper. Serve the antlers in a rustic bowl or basket lined with “snow” (cotton balls or white shredded paper). You can even create a small label that says “Sven’s Antlers” in a playful font.
Frozen Heart Sandwiches Heart Shaped Sandwiches
What better represents the love between sisters than a heart? These are a simple party favorite with the added twist of fitting the theme! Show your love for “Frozen” with these Heart Shaped Sandwiches. Use a heart shaped cookie cutter, or several different sizes, to cut sandwiches to provide a charming and fitting touch to the party. Fillings can include ham and cheese, peanut butter and jelly, or any other kid-friendly option. For extra flair, spread a thin layer of cream cheese on the bread before adding the filling. This will help the sandwich keep its shape. Arrange the sandwiches on a platter, perhaps alternating the fillings for visual appeal. You can even cut out smaller heart shapes from cheese slices to place on top of the sandwiches for added detail.
Kristoffs Ice Harvest Fruit Skewers
Kristoff, the rugged ice harvester, knows a thing or two about ice and snow! Capture the essence of his profession with “Kristoff’s Ice Harvest”: vibrant fruit skewers. Choose fruits with colors that evoke the Frozen theme: blueberries, grapes (green and purple), melon (honeydew and cantaloupe), and white grapes. Cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces. Thread the fruit onto skewers, alternating colors and textures to create visually appealing patterns. Arrange the fruit skewers on a platter in the shape of an ice formation or snowflake. You can also create a “snowy” effect by sprinkling the platter with powdered sugar or edible glitter. Place a small sign nearby that says “Kristoff’s Ice Harvest” to complete the theme.
Main Course Ideas
Now that the appetizers are out of the way, let’s get to the main course! These savory options will keep everyone at the party satisfied and energized, ready to sing along to “Let It Go” at the top of their lungs.
Annas Coronation Chicken Salad Sliders
For a regal and satisfying meal, serve “Anna’s Coronation Chicken Salad Sliders.” Coronation chicken salad, a classic dish with a hint of spice, is perfect for a princess’s coronation – or, in this case, a Frozen movie party!
Begin by preparing the chicken salad. You’ll need cooked and shredded chicken, mayonnaise, mango chutney, curry powder, and a touch of lemon juice. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Use mini buns or slider rolls for the sliders. Cut the buns in half and spread a thin layer of butter or mayonnaise on each half. Fill the buns with the coronation chicken salad. Garnish the sliders with a sprig of parsley or a small piece of mango. Arrange the sliders on a platter and serve. You can even add a small toothpick to each slider with a tiny flag that says “Anna’s Coronation Chicken Salad” for a touch of elegance.
Elsas Ice Palace Pizza
Create a stunning and delicious centerpiece with “Elsa’s Ice Palace Pizza.” This pizza, designed to resemble Elsa’s magical ice palace, is sure to impress both children and adults alike. Use a pre-made pizza crust or make your own. Instead of traditional tomato sauce, use a white sauce or Alfredo sauce to create an “icy” base. Sprinkle the pizza with mozzarella cheese, creating a snowy landscape. Add toppings like blue or purple bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms to represent the colors of Elsa’s ice magic. You can even create a snowflake pattern using thinly sliced pepperoni or black olives. Bake the pizza according to the crust instructions until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Once the pizza is cooked, let it cool slightly before cutting it into slices. Serve the pizza on a platter and decorate with edible glitter or snowflake sprinkles for an extra touch of sparkle.

Bake a batch of your favorite cupcakes. Let them cool completely. Frost the cupcakes with white frosting. Use a generous amount of frosting to create a rounded, “snowball” effect. Sprinkle the cupcakes with coconut flakes to mimic the texture of snow. Add mini chocolate chips for Olaf’s eyes and an orange candy (like a candy corn or orange jelly bean) for his nose. You can even use black decorating gel to draw a smile on Olaf’s face. Arrange the cupcakes on a platter or cupcake stand and serve.
Elsas Ice Shards Rock Candy or Sugar Glass
Emulate Elsa’s magical ice powers with “Elsa’s Ice Shards.” These stunning treats, made from rock candy or sugar glass, will add a touch of elegance and sparkle to your dessert table. You can purchase pre-made rock candy in blue or clear colors. Alternatively, you can make your own sugar glass by melting sugar and water together, adding a touch of blue food coloring, and pouring the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let the sugar glass harden completely. Once hardened, break the sugar glass into jagged shards. Arrange the ice shards on a platter or in a tall glass to resemble icicles. These shards are perfect for adding a magical touch to your dessert display.
