Blue Popcorn recipe and ideas:
There are lots of ways to make blue popcorn to serve at your party. Consider these easy ideas:
- How to make Raspberry popcorn with blue popcorn glaze: The recipe for blue popcorn is
easy when you have blue popcorn glaze, left, and a popcorn popper. Put oil in the popperand
as soon as it liquefies, you'll add the popcorn and Glaze Pop. It's that easy!
- How to make Blue Popcorn: Start with your favorite popped corn. Kettle corn is a wonderful
option as it is both sweet and savory and ideal for kids parties. Spray 1/4 of the popcorn with
Wilton's Color Mist spray, left.
- How to make blue popcorn balls: Use your favorite popcorn ball recipe or try melting
marshmallows. A dash of blue food coloring is all it takes. Swirl the food coloring into the
marshmallow mixture or the corn syrup mixture.
- How to make sweet popcorn that's blue: Start with Blue Raspberry Glaze Pop Popcorn
Flavoring, right. Use this yummy raspberry frosted corn in your popcorn popper. Start with
corn and popping oil. Instead of salt, use a measure of Glaze Pop equal to half the quantity of
popcorn. Put the oil in the popper first and as soon as it liquefies add the popcorn and Glaze
Pop and stir until the popping slows down. Then allow to cool before eating.

- Torani syrup in blue raspberry is very blue indeed and makes a refreshing shaved ice treat.

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something seahorse blue! Got the blues?
Whether you're having a blue cookie monster party, or celebrating a birthday with seahorses, creating
blue foods for a party is weird, wacky and wonderful. How are you going to do it? We'll drop you a hint:
err on the side of caution as too much blue food coloring will detract from your theme. Use white
plates and accent with white foods so that you have just the right balance for guests to brave.
More blue party food:
Start the birthday kid out right by placing one drop of blue food coloring into the bowl then fill with
cheerios. When your child is seated, pour the milk and watch the cereal turn blue!
- A blue birthday cake. Mix just a few drops of blue food coloring with your white cake mix or
angel food recipe, but frost with simple white icing with blue decorating gels for the lettering
and cake design. For something more unexpected, try the Wilton cake checkerboard pans
with half white cake and half blue cake.
- Shimmy the Jimmies. Blueberries are an obvious choice of food for your party, but you can
kick things up a notch with blue whipped cream sprinkled with blue jimmies. Add just a hint of
blue to your whipped topping, so as not to overwhelm your guests.
- Blue cookies. The cookie monster is blue, and your cookies should be too. Try our Easy Big
Batch Sugar Cookie recipe and use India Tree sugar crystals. Try adding blue drops of food
coloring to the easy and delicious recipe for royal icing made of meringue powder. Left, you'll
also find Blue cookie icing.
- Melt-away with Wilton candy melts. It's much easier than melting white chocolate and adding
food coloring, and you'll likely have a prettier color baby blue.
- Make seaside lemonade. Fill ice cube trays with water, then add a drop of food coloring to
each. As the blue ice melts into yellow lemonade, you'll have a wonderful sea green.
- Blue bagel and cream cheese. Make blue bagels by adding a few drops of blue food coloring
to your home made bagel recipe. Keep the cream cheese white, so that it's not too
overwhelming. Don't have time to make bagels? Then do the reverse: color the cream cheese.
- Blue deviled eggs. Start with your favorite deviled eggs recipe. Before scooping the mixture
back into the white egg halves, soak them in water mixed with a few drops of food coloring to
get the desired color. Allow drying time on paper towels, then fill and serve. Blue looks terrific
with the yellow centers.
Blue candies and sweet treats:
Make a centerpiece of clustered bowls of blue candies of different textures. We suggest:
- Air Heads Blue Raspberry
- blue and white gummies
- blue gum balls
- blue cotton candy
- Berry Blue Jelly Bellies

Blue Cake and cupcake ideas
- Serve your blue birthday cake with bubblegum ice-cream, which is usually blue!
- Tear a piece of blue cotton candy as the blue cupcake topper. Buy blue cotton candy by the tub.
- How to make blue ice cream: soften vanilla ice cream by letting it sit out to stand a few
minutes. Blend in blue powdered food coloring (not liquid). Then return to the freezer to
harden. Blue ice cream will look terrific for a pirate party or nautical theme as it will look like
the ocean.
