The Nerdie Foodie: Father’s Day Edition

By Jenine Lee, @Niners_9

Hi Nerdie Foodies! Father’s Day was this past Sunday! If you have yet to celebrate Father’s day, we don’t want you to be unprepared, so here are a few foodie ideas to help you get started! Let’s go!

Cookies

This cutie, Bleau, from Glitter Girls Club (Website, Facebook, Twitter) shows us how to make Golf Tee sugar cookies! And the best part, this recipe is kid friendly with adult supervision! Check out the video below!

Of course, what dad does not like bacon (or bacon alternative)? Jenn Johns from Cookies, Cupcakes, and Cardio (Blog, Facebook, Twitter) brings us bacon cookies! Check out the video below!

And if your dad is more of a handyman, check out these cookies by Amber, from Sweet Ambs Cookies (Blog, Facebook, Twitter). They’re going to look like dad’s toolbox (including the tools!). Check out the video below!

Cakes

Sharon, from Creative Cakes by Sharon (Blog, Facebook, Twitter), shows us how to make a cake with a surprise on the inside just for dad! Check out the video below! Also, this video is part of a larger collaboration, so check those out as well!

And what dad does not love beer? Haniela (Blog, Facebook, Twitter) shows us how to make and decorate your cakes to look like cans of Heineken beer! Best of all, dads won’t be sick from the “crazy juice” (thanks to our nerdlet Aylah from Nerdy Kidz Corner for that phrase), although it I can’t say the same if they get sick from eating too many cans of cake… Anyhoo, check out the video below!

Cupcakes

Jenn Johns also shows us how to make a more traditional Father’s Day cupcake topper – Father’s Day shirt and tie! Check out the video below!

Tammy from YoyoMax12 (Facebook, Twitter) shows us how to make one of the ultimate barbeques, out of cupcakes of course! This is ingenious! Check out the video below on how to turn your cupcakes into barbecues! *Bonus: Tammy does have another video in this series – two in total. Check out her lawnmower cupcakes here*

Cake Pops

If your dad is a Star Wars fan, Rosanna Pansino from Nerdy Nummies (Blog, Facebook, Twitter) has got you covered! Check out these BB-8 cake pops that dad would nerd out over! Heck, even I’m nerding out over these adorable things!

Fruit Kabobs

Jenn Johns collaborates with Don from The Learning Station (Blog, Facebook, Twitter) to make a fruit kabob on a watermelon grill! It really does look like a colourful barbeque Check out this yummy and creative (not to mention healthy!) snack for dad below!
