Tasty Food Miniatures Your Elf Can Make and You Can Eat

Miniature Foods, especially party foods are very popular lately.  If you search Pinterest, you can find miniature corn dogs, hamburger sliders, cotton candy, and more.  I have been thinking a lot about our Elf on the Shelf and how neat it would be if she could make miniature foods that we could actually eat!  This is what I've found....

Festive Mini Cakes // Snackworks
Layers of vanilla wafers and jam make up these tiny treats.  Dip them in melted chocolate for an easy miniature layer cake that's perfect for elves.

Gingerbread House // Uncommon Designs Online
I am in love with this adorable miniature gingerbread house!  What a sweet, petite treat to go with coffee or cocoa.  Decorate them elaborately, or leave them simply adorable.

Mini Cake Pops // Sweet Cheeks Tasty Treats
These cake pops were part of a whole elf party.  See the full spread by clicking on the link.

Caramel Apple Bites // My Litter
Although, we typically think of caramel apples as a Halloween food, these tiny sweets are perfect for anytime of the year.

Petit Fours // Craftsy
Pound cake and chocolate melts are the main ingredients in these adorable doll-sized cakes.  Make in Christmas colors with candy sprinkles to make them more festive!

Elf Donuts // Learning as I Sew
I debated whether to add this one to the list since it's almost an "official" elf food.  The idea is all over Pinterest and you can get printable donut boxes as well.  Of course, the best is if the elf also produces human sized treats as well.  Is he a good elf or a bad one for bringing donuts in the house?

Store-Bought Miniature Foods // Where Do We Find the Time
It doesn't get much easier than store-bought food.  The contrast between the regular sized foods and the mini foods are so fun.  Lay them out in a buffet like the picture or build an Incredible Shrinking Machine to make the foods elf sized.

Petite Peanut Butter Blossoms // Hersheys
Did you know that Hershey's makes miniature kisses?  You can find them in your grocery store's baking isle!  How easy is it to cook up some tiny blossoms now that taste like the original?  Or you can do as the blogger in the picture and use chocolate chips.

Pizza Bites // Baked in the South
Has your elf been up late studying?  Are they on a first date?  Do they just really need some pizza? Make some for them and some to share with the humans.
