How to Make a July 4th Cookie Wreath Sweetopia
Do you have any special treats lined up for the 4th?
4th of July is a very special day in our family: it’s my father’s birthday, and we always have some special treats. 🙂
Marina, that is so sweet!! I hope you enjoy the 4th and your dad’s birthday!
gorgeous roundup!
If only I was so organized as to have made something mid-June to have it all edited and ready to go live this week. But no, that didn’t happen.
Hope you are having the TIME OF YOUR LIFE!!!! 🙂
Lovely recipes and ideas!
Cheers,
Rosa xx
Great desserts for the red white and blue jubilee year in the UK as well. Diane
Thanks Marla, for including my cookie wreath among all these gorgeous and scrumptious-looking desserts!
Hope you’re enjoying the mountains in Switzerland! xo
Marian, your cookie wreath is fabulous!! I was so happy when I found it 🙂
wow gorgeous food!! people are so creative out there.
What a GREAT roundup, Marla! So many fun ideas!
fun stuff! and it’s only a week a way. happy 4th!
Oh my, all of these look so good! I just read an article that suggested you should eat the majority of the sugar you’re going to have in the morning…After those photos, that’s currently what I wish I did for breakfast. Fruit pops are one of my favorite summer treats, and I love your colorful version!
Thanks Grace! I have heard the same thing about sugar. I pretty much have to keep away from it no matter what. I do enjoy gazing upon all these goodies though! By the way, my pops don’t have any added sugar in them. The ripe berries offer enough sweetness. If needed I add a little stevia. So I would say those you can enjoy any time of day!!
Love all of these but the cookie wreath is amazing – thinking I’m going to adapt this and send to my sister for her birthday – she loves stars!
Delish! These are all amazing looking 4th of July recipes. I especially love the fruit tart, fruit kabobs, doughnuts and popsicles. 🙂
What a great red, white, and blue collection! Thanks so much for including my frozen fruit daiquiris. Sharing on Pinterest and Facebook. 🙂
Thank you Monica! Your frozen drinks look amazing!
this is amazing Marla! Thanks for the great roundup!
What a festive assortment, Marla! Hope you have a great 4th!
Eeeeverything looks 4th-erific!
Fabulous and delicious round up Marla!! Thanks for including my ice cream cupcakes!

This is a terrific round up of ideas for the 4th Marla and your printables are absolutely adorable! Your creativity truly knows no bounds!!!
Awww, Nancy ~ you are so sweet. That makes me feel great! Thank you 🙂
Lovely round up! Your pops will be in my round-up on Sunday 🙂
Hi Marina, thank you so much!! Looking forward to seeing your round up of goodies too 🙂 xo
Love all these recipes. The question is not, “What kind of food would you serve?” But what kind of food i wouldn’t have time to serve because I want to make it all!
I know it Alex!! Maybe settle in on between 1 & 3 of the recipes. If you have the time 😉
This all looks so good! I can’t wait to try some of it!
Great! I hope you get too 🙂
Marla….you are too sweet! I have loved living through your instagram photos! Next time, I’m hiding in your suitcase!!! 🙂
Bridget, your start cookies are adorable! Next time I WILL pack you in my suitcase ~ you would be a blast to travel with!
These all look so beautiful and amazing! My mom would go crazy over some of this stuff, she’s a stars + stripes freak 🙂 It’s even the theme of her kitchen! If I had to pick from these I’d go with your very blueberry layer cake or those fruit kabobs. Love that they include marshmallows – too cute 🙂 Have a great 4th!
Hi Andrea, love that your mom is a stars and stripes freak!! I love them too. I also thought those marshmallows were a playful touch for the fruit kebabs. You have a great 4th too!
Marla! What a round-up you’ve gathered here, who needs Pinterest when we have you? And love your printables, totally festive and gets me in the mood to wave my sparkler! XO for the mention!
Hey there Heidi! Always happy to have you to the party!!

LOVE the homemade “Bomb Pops” at the top. You’re probably too young, but when I was a kid Bomb Pops were “the bomb”. GREG
