We can’t get enough of these delicious Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat fruit kabobs. It’s the perfect Dr. Seuss party treat to serve others or keep for yourself! My daughter’s school will be having a Dr. Seuss day soon to celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday. Besides making this Lorax craft, we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate at home than to make these tasty fruit kabobs inspired by the book The Cat in the Hat – one of our favorite Dr. Seuss books.

Aren’t they the cutest? Believe me, I was scared to draw faces on the marshmallows because drawing is not my strong suit, but they turned out great. They are completely edible since the markers are made out of edible material.  My daughter got in on the fun and helped me draw a few faces (not shown).

How to make Cat in the Hat Fruit Kabobs

Making this Dr. Seuss snack is incredibly easy and sure to impress others! 

Cat in the Hat Fruit Treat Supplies 

Food Writer Marker – (Don’t use a real marker. This is an edible marker!)
Bananas
Strawberries
Bamboo Skewers – (I cut mine in half to get rid of the sharp tip and to make them shorter)
Marshmallows
Lemon Juice – if you plan to serve these the next day, find out how to keep the bananas from browning here.

Dr. Seuss dessert instructions 

Using Wilton’s Food Writer Marker, draw cat faces on one side of the marshmallow.  Don’t worry if they don’t look perfect. From far away it will look fine and it’s what’s inside that really counts. Believe me, they are tasty!

Slice bananas into pieces.

Slice strawberries into pieces and also caught off the tip of each strawberry to resemble a cone/triangle shape. (This will be the top of the hat.)

Next, grab a Bamboo Skewer to begin layering the food in this order: marshmallow, strawberry slice, banana, strawberry slice, banana and top with the strawberry tip that looks like a hat top.
