This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Groupβ’ and Wet-Nap, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #showusyourmess (http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV).
We decided to do something a little different for our Easter celebration this year.
Instead of buying lots of candy and small toys for our children, we put together an unforgettable, incredible S’mores Bar. It was awesome! And while I’m not sure that I agree, one of my kids even said that it was better than Disney World. π
I don’t know about that.
But we did have a fun and messy time with it all.
Tip: Clean sticky hands and faces easily by setting Wet-Nap cleansing wipes out on the table.
How to Create a Great S’mores Bar
I knew that I wanted our s’mores bar to be really special, so I planned out what to make and shop for ahead of time. I’m sharing all the ingredients we used in ours below to give you some ideas of how to put together a truly unforgettable s’mores bar of your own.
Here’s a list of the foods I included in our S’mores Bar:
- Fudge Stripes Cookies
- Chocolate Chip Cookies, thin and crispy
- Snickerdoodle Cookies, thin and crispy
- Honey Teddy Grahams
- Graham Crackers
- Mini Pretzels
- Mini Pancakes
- Mini Marshmallows
- Stacker Marshmallows
- Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bars
- Hershey’s Cookies ‘n’ Creme Chocolate Bars
- Mini Chocolate Chips
- Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Drops
- Fresh Strawberries, sliced (Try not to skip these! They really add a special taste to the s’mores and help to cut some of the sweetness.)
Spread the ingredients out on a table, and then let your family and friends build their s’more creations! Designate one or two people to roast marshmallows over the stove.
S’mores Trail Mix Recipe
In addition to simply laying out ingredients for the kids to build their s’mores, I also put together a fun and easy-to-make S’more Trail Mix. It was a great addition to the table. π
Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Teddy Grahams
- 1 cup mini pretzels
- 1 bag Hershey's Milk Chocolate drops, 8 oz.
Instructions
- Add ingredients to a bowl and mix until incorporated. Enjoy!
Easy S’mores Bar Clean Up with Wet-Nap Wipes
Everyone knows when you eat a s’more, you’re going to be reaching for something to wipe your hands and face in a very short amount of time. π
The perfect solution to the messiness was setting out Wet-Nap wipes for the kids and adults to quickly grab. That way no one had to get up and run to the sink in the middle of enjoying their sweet treats.
I think Isaac used the MOST Wet-Nap wipes out of us all. π
Easter is special every single year, but this year, it was definitely more memorable.
How did you celebrate Easter? What’s your favorite way to use Wet-Nap wipes?

I love to have wet wipes on hand for sticky messes. They work so much better than dry napkins. I love the idea of a S’mores bar, makes it so easy for everyone to get the perfect S’more for themselves. My kids would love the trail mix too. All of it looks yummy and fun to eat.
Thanks for sharing, Shelly! The s’mores bar really does allow everyone to make their own “perfect” s’more. π
How long will this last in a ziploc bag?
Oh my!! I was asked by my mother in law to bake a goodie for her to take to her senior citizens day center bake sale. Of course I said yes. However, that was 3 weeks ago and I so forgot until she asked me tonight what I was making. Ummm, so I quickly googled easy treats for a bake sale. Well, these little gems popped up and being that is 10pm my husband and I ran to the store to get the ingredients. I decided to add 2 different kinds of teddy grahams and I thought well pecans might be an added surprise. Next time I may add m&m’s or peanuts or maybe both!! Thank you so much for this great idea!!
