With a few supplies from your local market and some imagination, these simple snacks will show that you don’t need much time or money to create something special.
Snack Supplies:
To make these adorable flower pot pudding cups, you’ll need the following ingredients and supplies:
- Chocolate Pudding Cups
- Oreo Cookies
- Plastic Baggie
- Rolling Pin

Pro Tip: Get creative with colors and designs! Try different petal shapes or layer pipe cleaners for a multi-colored flower.
Directions:
Have everything ready? Time to get creative!
- First you will want to make your decorative spoon “flowers.” I did this by first wrapping the handles of the plastic spoons with green washi tape and hot gluing a flower I made out of pipe cleaners and pom poms to it.
- Now you will want to work on the pudding cups themselves. To do this, simply open all the pudding cups you will be making/serving. Set those aside.
- Place your chocolate cookies in a plastic baggie and seal close. Take a rolling pin {or other kitchen utensil} and crush them till they look like dirt.
- Now take a spoonful of crushed cookies and place them on top/inside the pudding cups.
- To finish my Flower Pot Pudding Cups, simply place the decorated spoon into the cup.
- Serve immediately or store in fridge until serving time. When ready to serve, arrange your flower pot pudding cups on a tray or table for display. You can even label some as “mini gardens” or add small name tags for a personalized touch.

I just love how guests can get straight to eating with this idea, rather than scrambling to look for utensils. You can even change up the colors and/or designs of the flowers to really match the theme of your event.
