They can definitely satiate their sweet tooths. These small treats are not only easy to serve but can also be personalised to match your event’s theme.

So, Cookies are the kind of sweet snack that will have your little guests coming back for more every time.

Cutlets 

Cutlets are a great way to sneak in some healthy ingredients while still serving a scrumptious snack. 

These golden, crispy patties, made from either veggies or chicken, can be seasoned just the way your child loves, making them a perfect, versatile option.

Trust us, kids simply can't get enough of these Cutlets! Their gentle flavour and soft texture make them the ultimate choice for mini snickers. 

They are easy for the little ones to grab and cater to those who love savoury tastes over sugary ones. A side of ketchup or chutney with those cutlets can make them even more irresistible.

Popcorn

Popcorn is the snack that nobody really talks about but everyone literally devours. When people gather to celebrate a birthday, a bowl of popcorn will be within reach.

Light and crunchy, it is an ideal base for all kinds of delicious seasonings. Classic Buttered Popcorn never disappoints, but you can definitely play around with different flavours. 

From Rich Caramel Popcorn to savoury masala goodness, there are plenty of options to satisfy any cravings. A bowl of Popcorn goes a long way at a birthday party - it keeps kids happily munching as they bounce between fun and games.

Samosas

Samosas are basically edible bliss and kids instinctively know this. The golden, crispy pastry pockets are typically filled with spiced potatoes, peas or minced meat, making them both flavoursome and satisfying.

One bite, one irresistible crunch and suddenly, you just can’t stop eating! The crispy outer layer and the soft, seasoned interior come together to make each mouthful a pure joy. 

You can also get mini Samosas to ensure that kids get a manageable size. Samosas taste even better when served with a side of ketchup or mint yoghurt chutney. A lip-smacking combination, we tell you! 

Macarons

A beautiful and refined French dessert, Macarons will add charm and elegance to your child's party. Macarons, with their bright colourful shells and creamy fillings, are sure to catch everyone's attention and add an element of flair to the snack table.

They are available in so many unique varieties. You can choose from a palette of flavours, including classics like vanilla, chocolate and strawberry or go for more tropical tastes like passionfruit and mango. 

These bite-sized treats are a fun twist for kids who enjoy sweets but want something a little different from the typical birthday snack. Honestly, their exquisite look and heavenly taste make them a memorable addition.

Puffs

Savoury Puffs are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser at kids' birthdays and there is no surprise! They are golden parcels, filled with delectable spiced fillings that are sure to please all the little one's taste buds. 

Puffs, such as Egg Puffs or Vegetable Puffs, are wonderful party snacks because they are light yet fulfilling. If you are looking for a non-vegetarian snack, Chicken Puffs are another amazing choice.

With a crispy, flaky crust and scrumptious stuffing, these Puffs keep the young guests energised, smiling and happy all celebration long.

Cupcakes

If you are planning a birthday, a batch of toothsome Cupcakes is an absolute must-have. The miniature cakes are not just cute; they are super convenient too, as they save you the hassle of cutting and serving slices of a big cake.

While vanilla and chocolate cupcakes are timeless, you can also try flavours like carrot butterscotch or even funfetti for a tasty adventure. 

Moreover, frosting can be customised to suit the party’s colour scheme, so they become as visually appealing as they are appetising.

But, the best part is definitely the decorations. Vibrant icing, sprinkles and edible toppers can turn Cupcakes into a sweet work of art. For a truly special touch, consider featuring the birthday child's beloved characters or hobbies in the design. 

Veg Rolls

Veg rolls are a nutritious and wholesome snack idea for a kids' birthday bash. It can be stuffed with a variety of ingredients like potatoes, fresh vegetables, paneer and even a bit of cheese.
