Easy Spring Fruit and Rice Krispies Treat Kabobs are a fun and festive twist on the marshmallow treat. The perfect sweet treat for any celebration.

Welcome to #SpringSweetsWeek 2019 hosted by Heather from Hezzi-D’s Books and Cooks and Christie from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures! What better way to celebrate the coming of spring than with food and a week of sweet recipes?

30 bloggers from around the country have come together to share over 100 sweet recipes perfect for spring! Get ready to ditch your hats, coats, and snow boots and get ready for some delicious sweet treats like cupcakes, cookies, sweet breads, and cocktails! Please check out the other sweet recipes linked up below this recipe. 

I don’t know about you, but I am so glad Spring has sprung in my area.  While we live in the south and rarely get snow or extreme cold temperatures, we do have wacky weather.  We can have Spring, Winter, and Summer temperatures in the same week and even in the same day in the “winter” season.  

I love making these Fruit and Rice Krispies Treat Kabobs for snacking on or to take to springtime celebrations with family and friends.  If you’ve ever made the rice cereal treats before, you know you need a large pot to mix the cereal into the melted marshmallows. 

This Swiss Diamond Cast Iron Round Casserole is the perfect vessel to make the treats in.  It’s big – it’s a 6.9 quart non-stick pot. Great to cook on top of the stove and in the oven.  I just love the sapphire blue color, too. 

I was super excited to receive this piece of cookware from Swiss Diamond in conjunction with #SpringSweetsWeek and while I was thinking of how delicious a pot roast would be in this, I also was thinking to use it for something sweet.  Already knew Spring Fruit and Rice Krispies Treat Kabobs were going to happen.  

The recipe couldn’t be simpler – slice up your favorite fruits and make a batch of the cereal treats. I used these cute cookie cutters to cut the fruit and cereal treats into shapes.  

Tips for this Recipe:

This recipe is truly a cinch. Fresh fruit works best. 

Be sure to let the crispy rice treats set for at least an hour before cutting into shapes.  I found it was easier to remove the whole block of cereal treats from the pan and onto a cutting board. 

The wooden skewers come in different sizes, use the size you wish. 

The kabobs are best served fresh, but if you have to refrigerate them prior to serving, allow them to come to room temperature first.  The cereal treats will be softer this way.  

Remember to use a pot large enough to mix everything together.
