  • Cookies: Oreos, sugar cookies, vanilla wafers
  • Donuts: donut holes or mini donuts - chocolate coated, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, etc.
  • Ants on a Log: celery sticks filled with peanut butter and topped with raisins is a great healthy option to add to the board

  • Popcorn: caramel popcorn or plain is a great choice for a treat board
  • Make a sweet pumpkin flavored dip and serve it in a hallowed out mini pumpkin
