Ingredients
You can add whatever you’d like to your
- Golden Oreos
- Edible Gold Color Spray
- Rolos Caramels
- Flipz White Chocolate Pretzels
- Skinny Pop Popcorn
- Lifesaver Gummie Rings
- Fruit by the Foot
- Swedish Fish
- Trolli Sour Brite Candies
- Nerds Gummy Clusters
- Milk Chocolate M & M’s
- Skittles (between the M & M’s and Skittles, you’ll need small red, blue, black, yellow, and green candies to make Olympic “rings” out of the Mason Jars.
Directions
Oreo Medals:
- Take off one half of the Oreo. Spray Golden Oreos with the Edible Gold Spray.
- Split a Fruit by the Foot into thirds and fold each third in half. Press the ends into the cream center of the Oreo and replace the top half.
Olympic Rings Bags:
- I used white gift bags (you can pick any size.)
- Depending on the size, use a circular object to trace the rings in markers. (You’ll need blue, yellow, red, black, and green.) Tip: A toilet paper roll works great!
Olympic Treat Board:
- Optional: Arrange 5 Mason Jars in the center of the board. Fill with M & M’s and Skittles to match the Olympic Rings. You’ll need red, yellow, green, blue, and black/brown candies.
- Arrange your favorite treats around the rings.

Perfect Presentation Platters
Food Boards: I used my Round Tray from Target that I get so much use out of! I also love this White Reclaimed Wood Pizza Board and this Lazy Susan version that is so convenient. For a higher-end round tray, I love my MacKenzie-Childs checkered party tray.
Rectangular Trays: If you’d like a rectangular wooden tray, this wooden version from Target is great, as well as this beautiful choice from Etsy. Walmart has a beautiful smaller version with handles! Finally, Amazon has this gorgeous charcuterie board (with a knife set!) as well as this acacia rectangular serving board.
Popcorn Holder: I used this Star Beverage Bucket by MacKenzie Childs!
Mason Jars: Walmart has these for a great deal, or you can get a larger pack on Amazon!
Popcorn Bags: If you prefer patriotic bags that don’t require any DIY, there are so many fun options available, like this Patriotic Assortment Pack, these American Flag Popcorn Bags, or these Stars and Stripes Assortment, all for a great price!
Festive Lights: For an extra festive touch, surround your serving dish with these star twinkle lights or these American flag lights!
Can I Prep This Olympic Popcorn Candy Board Ahead of Time?
Absolutely! You can set this up several hours in advance to save time. Just cover the tray with Saran Wrap so the candy stays fresh.
Storing Leftovers
For any leftovers, I recommend saving the original candy packaging so you can just return the candy to its original bag! Ziploc Bags also work well.
Enjoy!
I hope this Olympic Treat Board was a fun way to celebrate the Olympic spirit in your home!
