We found everything we needed at Walmart. First up, on one end of the table are the 4th of July Jello Parfaits, you can find the recipe here. An aqua mason jar holds red and blue daisies from the Floral Department at Walmart, at $3.88 they add a nice splash of color.

The red licorice is wrapped in the same Printable Wrappers we used on the Hot Dog Bar. These would also be a fun treat to pack for the parade or fireworks.

In the center of the table, there are Paper Plate Bowls filled with star shaped marshmallows. And behind them Mini Ice Cream Sandwiches with festive sprinkles and No Bake Strawberry Cheesecakes with fresh fruit.

The No Bake Strawberry Cheesecakes are the same recipe that I used on the Cotton Candy Cheesecakes, I simply substituted strawberry flavoring for the Tutti-Fruiti.

The Strawberry Cream Oreos are dipped in blue candy melts. I found Wilton light blue candy melts in the Party Section at Walmart and then added a bit a Wilton Candy Coloring to make it a bit darker. It’s important to buy the candy coloring, if you use regular gel or food coloring in the candy melts they will seize up.
