With school holiday parties already beginning, and not to forget parties with family, friends and neighbors, the holiday munchie season is here! These Christmas tree party treats perfect for your next party or pot luck.
Fairy bread is a dish commonly served at children’s parties in Australia, and with me being Australian, of course I brought this tradition to the US for my own children when I moved here.
To make this tasty treat, here is what you need:
- Bread slices
- Butter
- Nonpareils (or as we Aussies call them ‘hundreds and thousands’) in festive colors
- Nutella
- Festive cookie cutter
Using a cookie cutter, cut festive shapes out of your bread slices.
Soften the butter (don’t melt it) and spread a thin layer on each shaped bread slice. Don’t spread it on the trunk of the tree.
Place the tree face down in a shallow bowl of nonpareils until the bread is covered.
Carefully spread a little Nutella on the tree trunk. And there you have it – Christmas-themed fairy bread!
Have you made any fun holiday treats? I would love to hear what you have made in the comments below.

When I saw the pic at the top I never would have guessed that it was bread used to make the tree. Great idea!
