Alice in Wonderland Food Ideas
When deciding to create the creatures of Tulgey Wood, we also wanted to make sure we had a good balance of sweet and savory food.
To serve up this food for a party, you should grab our fun food labels. They are just like signs found in the Tulgey Wood.
You can grab the Alice in Wonderland food labels for free down below. Now, let’s look at how to make all of these delicious treats into curious creatures.
Pencil Birds
As we looked at the creatures in the Tulgey Wood, these seemed really doable! They turned out better than we imagined too.
Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this Alice in Wonderland party food.
- Vanilla Wafer Cookies
- Green Peeps
- Pink and White Candy Melts
- Chocolate Chips
Directions
1. Shape the Wafers
Cut one end of each wafer cookie into a point.
2. Melt the Chocolate and Candy Melts
Melt your chocolate chips and candy melts according to the package directions.
3. Dip the Wafers
- Dip the flat end of the wafer into the pink candy melts for the eraser.
- Dip the pointed end into the white candy melts for the pencil tip.
- Once the white candy melt has cooled, dip just the very tip into the melted chocolate to create the pencil lead.
4. Add the Faces
Use melted chocolate to draw little eyes on each pencil.
5. Attach the Pencil to a Peep
Use a dab of melted chocolate to stick each pencil onto a Peep.
6. Let It Set
Allow everything to cool and set before serving.
That’s all it takes!
Tweedle Dee Cake Pops
We found some food that resembled Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. We decided to make them into cake pops.
You can find a tutorial on cake pops in this post about bumble bee cake pops. They are delicious!
Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make these adorable, on-theme cake pops.
- Cake —Baked, Crumbled
- Frosting
- Red, Yellow, White, and Blue Candy Melts
- Mini Marshmallows
Directions
To decorate this Alice in Wonderland party food, you need a variety of colored candy melts. We didn’t put these cake pops on sticks, but you definitely could.
1. Roll and Chill
Roll your cake pop mixture into balls and chill them in the fridge until firm.
2. Dip in Red Chocolate
Dip the chilled cake pops into melted red chocolate.
3. Add Yellow Top (Optional Tip)
For a two-tone look, you can dip just the tops into yellow chocolate after the red layer has set. (Next time, we would redip instead of adding yellow separately!)
4. Make Bow Ties
Pipe white and blue chocolate onto wax paper in a bow tie shape. Let them harden completely — they really make the pops pop!
5. Create the Hats
Dip mini marshmallows in red chocolate. While the chocolate is still wet, press half of a candy melt onto the marshmallow to make the hat brim.
6. Assemble and Decorate
Attach the marshmallow hats and bow ties to your cake pops with melted chocolate. Let everything set before serving.
This Alice in Wonderland party food was not only cute but so, so delicious!
Cymbal Frogs
This was another Alice in Wonderland party food that was really easy for us to come up with. They were even easier to assemble!
This treat was most of the kids' favorite treats at the party. The frogs were what they kept coming back for.
Ingredients
To make some Cymbal Frogs, you will only need 3 things.
- Fortune Cookies
- Albanese Rainforest Frogs (important because of their size)
- Chocolate Chips
Directions
1. Melt Chocolate Chips
Melt a handful of chocolate chips in the microwave or on the stovetop until smooth.
2. Draw Eyes on Fortune Cookies
Use the melted chocolate to draw two eyes on each fortune cookie. You can use a toothpick or piping bag for precision.
3. Add Chocolate to the Gummy Frog
Place a small dot of melted chocolate on the top of a gummy frog.
4. Attach the Fortune Cookie
Press a fortune cookie onto the chocolate-topped gummy frog and hold for a few seconds to set.
Voila! You now have a simple Alice in Wonderland food.
Accordion Owl
Making an Accordion Owl takes almost no prep (other than picking up the items). This is one of those Alice in Wonderland party foods that was an idea that turned out amazingly.
Ingredients
You don’t need many things to create an accordion owl. The apple fritters are key to making this owl. Here is a list of the things you need to throw together an accordion owl from the Tulgey Wood.
- Apple Fritters
- Donuts
- Green Food Spray
- Apple Fritters
- Yellow Frosting
- Black Frosting
- Orange Candy Melts
- Toothpicks
Directions
1. Spray the Donuts
Lightly spray the donuts with green food spray. (Tip: Let your guests know the color may transfer onto their hands!)
2. Line Up the Donuts
Arrange about six green-sprayed donuts in a row, placing an apple fritter at each end.
3. Create the Owl Face
Pipe two yellow frosting circles onto the front apple fritter for eyes. Add black frosting pupils (or use chocolate chips instead).
4. Add the Beak
Stick two orange candy melts into the front apple fritter to create the owl’s beak.
5. Make the Tail and Wings
Cut a second apple fritter in half. Attach the two halves to the back apple fritter using toothpicks to form the owl’s wings and tail.
Blue Caterpillar Sandwich
Making this blue caterpillar sandwich was our first idea for Alice in Wonderland food. All we had to figure out was where to get, or how to make, blue rolls.
Ingredients
Here is what else we used to make the blue caterpillar sandwich.
- Blue Bread
- Lunch Meat
- Cheese
- Mayo
- Mustard
Directions
1. Prepare the Dough
Make homemade roll dough and mix in some blue food coloring before baking.
2. Bake the Rolls
Bake the colored rolls according to your recipe instructions.
3. Assemble the Sandwiches
Pre-make your sandwiches using the blue rolls and your favorite sandwich fillings.
4. Create the Caterpillar
Lay the sandwiches out in a curvy line on a serving tray to form the shape of a caterpillar.
Mushrooms
Mushrooms are a great non-creature treat. They can be either a sweet or savory option. For our Alice in Wonderland party, we decided to make it a savory option. Think caprese salad.
Ingredients
To make these mushroom snacks, you only need a few items. Then you will have a poppable Alice in Wonderland food.
- String Cheese
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Sour Cream
- Basil Leaves
Directions
1. Cut the String Cheese
Slice your string cheese into 3–4 pieces.
2. Stand Up the Cheese
Place the pieces upright on your serving platter, using a dab of sour cream to help them stand.
3. Prepare the Tomatoes
Cut your cherry tomatoes in half.
4. Assemble the Mushrooms
Place a tomato half on top of each string cheese piece.
5. Add the Finishing Touch
Use small dots of sour cream on top of the tomatoes to create the classic mushroom look.
Clam Babies
Making these is why we picked foods to be creatures. They are just so cute! We made the clam babies (oyster babies) from deviled eggs.
Ingredients
To make these, you will need all of your deviled egg ingredients and small Canadian bacon slices.
- Boiled eggs
- Mayo
- Food coloring
- Canadian Bacon
- Slivered Almonds
We have a short tutorial for making this Alice in Wonderland party food in this blog post (coming soon). Hopefully, it will make these snacks simple to make.
Mome Raths
These were a no-prep treat. All you have to do is find some Sour Octopus gummies. The kids loved them. They also added another bright, colorful touch to the food table.
Ingredients
- Sour Octopus
Cheshire Cat Cotton Candy
Cotton candy always elevates a party. We love how fun it is. We have a cotton candy machine, but you can also buy it from a store or Amazon in a bucket.
The cotton candy was used on our Alice in Wonderland food table and on our Cheshire Cat ear decorating table.
Ingredients
- Cotton Candy

Other Alice in Wonderland Party Food Ideas
We had a couple of other food items at our Alice in Wonderland party. This includes the unbirthday cake!
Unbirthday Cake
The best part about making an unbirthday cake is that if it is a little wonky, it’s on point! The unbirthday cake is a little odd-shaped but always delicious.
To decorate the unbirthday cake, we frosted it with bright pink. We added some bead-like piping for frosting.
Instead of adding piped blue flowers, we decided to use flower cookies. We made Spritz cookies in our cookie press and dyed them blue. It really turned out as the perfect addition!
Drink Me Mix Station
To make this a truly magical experience straight from Wonderland, you want some interesting bottles.
We used 5 bottles and 2 jars. In our bottles, we had: Sprite and Torani flavor mixers. The Sprite was the base for our drinks.
To add extra fun, we chose flavors that had bright colors. Then, we let the kids choose their own mix-ins, including sugar crystal sprinkles and edible glitter. It made each of the drinks unique and fun!
Final Thoughts
These Alice in Wonderland food ideas were fun and better than we ever imagined. If you are hosting a Mad Tea Party or want some Wonderland fun, these Alice in Wonderland food ideas are perfect for your party.
