Do You Want To Build A Snowman? If you live in my house the answer is always YES — even if it’s the middle of a heat-wave filled Southern Ontario Summer and especially when it’s my daughter’s fifth birthday party. Though I’ve made these snowman cupcakes before (usually at Christmas) they were an absolute must when planning the Disney Frozen themed food for my daughter’s Frozen Birthday Party.
What You Need:
24 White cupcake liners
1 package white cake mix
1 container of white icing
Mini chocolate chips
Butterscotch Chips
½ cup white sugar
What To Do:
Bake cupcakes in white liners as directed on the package.
Cool and ice with white icing.
Use mini chocolate chips for eyes and mouth (2 for the eyes, 5 for the smiling mouth)
Use butterscotch chips for the nose.
Sprinkle with white sugar to make them “glisten” like snow (I do this over the sink to shake off the excess).
When ready to serve, label your Olaf Cupcakes using these fun Frozen themed Menu Cards with Snowball holders.

TIP: Just for fun, I baked one package of white cake mix and made half of the cupcakes into Olaf Cupcakes and the other half into Snowflake Cupcakes.
When we were planning my youngest daughter’s Frozen themed birthday party it became our personal challenge to come up with fun party food themed around each one of her favourite characters including Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Sven, and the Trolls. I knew immediately that I could easily adapt my Rudolph Cookies to become Sven Cookies with a switch of the nose colour and thought I’d make the antler “technique” even easier using regular store-bought icing that I already had in my pantry.
What You Need:
1 package of store-bought sugar cookie mix
1 container of chocolate icing
Brown Smarties or M&Ms
Plastic sandwich bag
What To Do:
Simply bake your favourite sugar cookies (I use the packaged kind) using the instructions that involve rolling the dough into a ball (easier than rolling the dough and cutting out) then flatten the balls slightly before baking. You should end up with nice round flat-ish cookies.
Fill a sandwich bag with chocolate icing (again I use the packaged kind).
Cut a tiny hole in the corner of your sandwich bag and TA-DAH you now have a piping bag!
Using your icing filled sandwich bag, "pipe" on your antlers and eyes then put a “glob” (yes that’s a technical term) on the Smartie and place on the cookie as Sven’s nose.
Keep in an air-tight container until ready to serve then label your Sven Cookies using these fun Frozen Themed Menu Cards with Snowball Holders.
Enjoy!

Just last weekend we hosted a Frozen-themed birthday party for my youngest daughter's 5th birthday party. My favourite part of the planning (besides organizing a surprise visit from Elsa and Anna!) was by far working with my daughters to come up with party food themed around their favourite Frozen characters including Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Sven, and the Trolls.
The whole menu can be found over in my Top Ten Budget Friendly Frozen Party Food list but one of the biggest hits were these Troll Rocks and Snowballs which BONUS are the same recipe!
Simply crush the Oreos.
Mix in the cream cheese.
Roll into balls.
Melt your chocolate.
Roll half the balls in the white chocolate and the other half in the milk chocolate.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Ingredients:
1 box Oreos (approx. 300g)
1 box cream cheese (approx. 250g), softened
1 ½ cup white chocolate chips
1 ½ cup milk chocolate (or semi-sweet chocolate) chips
Directions:
Crush Oreos in a large bowl. I like to crush them in my hands while putting them into the bowl then use the flat base of a cup to crush them finer. The kids LOVE this job!
Add softened cream cheese and mix until combined. Tip: this is easiest with your hands.
Roll into ping-pong-sized balls or just a bit smaller and refrigerate on a cookie sheet for approx. 15 minutes.
Melt white chocolate in microwave — DO NOT BURN.
Roll half the balls in the milk chocolate and place back on the cookie sheet.
Melt milk chocolate in microwave — DO NOT BURN.
Roll the remaining balls in the milk chocolate and place back on the cookie sheet.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
When ready to serve label your milk chocolate covered balls as Troll Rocks and your white chocolate covered balls as Snowballs using these Frozen Themed Menu Cards with Snowball holders.
Enjoy!
