How Do I Make a Barbie Dream Dessert Board? Step-by-Step Assembly

Assembling your Barbie Dream Dessert Board is a delightful process that’s as much about creativity as it is about following a few simple steps. The goal is to create an abundant, visually appealing spread that draws everyone in. Follow these instructions to craft your own edible masterpiece, full of pink perfection and sweet surprises.

• Prepare the Pink Kettle Corn: Begin by placing approximately 5 cups of kettle corn in a spacious mixing bowl. Melt your pink candy melts according to the package directions, ensuring a smooth, pourable consistency. Drizzle the melted candy over the kettle corn, tossing gently but thoroughly to ensure every kernel is completely coated. Once coated, spread the pink popcorn out evenly on a sheet of parchment paper and allow it to set and harden. This gives you a crunchy, colorful base for your board.
• Establish Your Centerpiece: Select a large, rimmed serving tray or a sturdy board as your canvas. Place the charming mini Barbie convertible right in the center, positioning it as a key focal point. Then, artfully place your chosen Barbie doll towards the top of the tray, as if she’s overseeing her delightful dessert kingdom.
• Fill the Convertible with Candy: Carefully fill the Barbie convertible with Sixlets chocolate candies. This not only makes the car an interactive part of the display but also adds another pop of color and a tempting treat.
• Arrange Small Candy Bowls: Take your Sour Patch Kids, Big Berry Adventure Tic Tacs, and Starbursts Minis. Place each type of candy into separate small serving bowls. Strategically arrange these bowls across the tray, ensuring they are easily accessible and add varied shapes and colors to the composition.
• Layer in the Main Treats: Begin to fill the rest of your board by placing some of the Barbie Fruit Snack packages onto the tray. Follow this by arranging the pink lemonade candy stirrers, rainbow marshmallows, jumbo pink gumballs, Cotton Candy Oreos, strawberry crème wafer cookies, pink and blue mini sugar cookies, pink and blue mini cupcakes, and Pink Milk Chocolate Hershey’s Kisses. Work systematically, filling as much of the tray as possible. Remember to leave some open space on either side of the convertible for your prepared pink kettle corn. Vary heights and textures to create visual interest.
• Add the Pink Kettle Corn and Flower Cookies: Now, distribute the set pink kettle corn on either side of the Barbie convertible, creating two generous, fluffy piles. Crown each pile with a beautiful flower power decorated sugar cookie, adding an elegant and whimsical touch.
• Incorporate Whimsical Elements: Artfully arrange the mini marshmallow snow cones on top of various treats across the tray. Their unique shape and soft texture will add an unexpected, playful element to your board.
• Position the Cake Pops: Carefully stick the pink vanilla cake pops between some of the other treats on the tray. Their upright position adds verticality and another dimension to the display, making the board look even more abundant and professionally arranged.
• Serve and Enjoy!: Once all your treats and accessories are perfectly placed, your Barbie Dream Dessert Board is complete and ready to be admired and devoured! Encourage guests to dig in and enjoy the magical, sweet experience.

Remember, the beauty of a dessert board lies in its organic, abundant feel. Don’t stress too much about perfect symmetry; embrace the art of delightful disarray. The goal is to create an inviting, overflowing presentation that celebrates the joy of sweets and the timeless charm of Barbie.
