DECORATE GRAHAM CRACKERS LIKE A BEACH

Making these cute snacks is an ocean breeze. 😛 Follow these simple instructions on how to make them. Be sure to save or print the recipe card at the bottom of the post for the best experience.

Start out by using an icing spatula or simply a butter knife to spread the aqua-blue frosting over each of the graham crackers horizontally while leaving just a little empty space at the top of each.

Then, crush 1 graham cracker to use as "sand" for the beach scene. You can easily do this by putting your graham cracker in a resealable bag. Then, crush it by using a rolling pin.

Place the frosted graham cracker down horizontally. Sprinkle the crushed graham crackers onto the bottom ¼ of the frosted cracker to give the effect of a sandy beach.

Take an Airhead extreme and cut it into (3) 1 ¼ inch strips next. These little strips will be your cute little bear’s beach towels! Adorable, right?

Dab just little blue icing and place it on the back of each candy "towel" and press 3 "towels" evenly apart on top of the "sandy" area.

Nexy up, dab the backs of 3 Teddy Grahams with the blue frosting and place them on each of the "towels".

Then, go in and sprinkle the “water” with a bit of the blue sanding sugar for an extra pretty effect.

Last up, gently poke a parasol pick into a hole in the graham cracker that is the closest to the upper left corner.

That's it! All you need to do now is serve and enjoy!
