Fun Dinosaur Party Food Ideas

Dino Eggs

Hard-boiled eggs are not usually on the menu for kids’ parties, but these eye-catching dinosaur eggs fromOur Best Bitesmight be the exception!

Herbivore Party Cups

Portion out some chopped veggies and hummus for kids (and adults!) to enjoy during the party. These little herbivore cups from Learn with Play at Homeare far more enticing than a big platter which, let’s face it, the kids are unlikely to touch if there are sweet treats on offer.

Molten Lava Volcano Cakes

How amazing are these explosive lava cakes from Celebrations at Home? They are sure to show-stoppers for any party table (and I bet the adults will want one too)!

Dinosaur Nests

As easy as a Rice Krispie bun, these dinosaur nests from The Crazy Kitchenare fab! Use cornflakes to give a bit more structure, and create a dip in the centre to be filled with mini eggs when the chocolate has set.

Swamp Juice

Presentation is all it takes to make even the simplest party element a success. Decorate party cups by drawing or sticking on eyes and teeth, or little tiny dino nostrils like these ones fromKelle Hampton. Kelle’s idea for jurassic swamp juice is one the kids are bound to love!
