Bonfire night is fast approaching so I'll be sharing a few fun bonfire and fireworks themed recipes this week, starting with these easy fruit rockets which are perfect for firework party food, popping into lunch boxes or even just a fun and healthy firework themed snack idea to make with the kids!

Be sure to check out my recipe video so you can see just how easy these are to make, and look out for more fun firework recipe ideas in the video too! 

These fun fruit fireworks are perfect for serving up to help celebrate other occasions too, like New Year's Eve or the Fourth of July if you are in that part of the world!

I used foil cocktail sticks to give these rockets some extra sparkle, but you could use any type of skewers - it's also a good idea to cut off sharp ends if you're serving these up for younger children.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Grapes can be a choking hazard and should be sliced length ways before serving to younger children – this recipe should not be served to children aged 5 and under.

Feel free to swap fruits in and out to suit your tastes too - raspberries, blackberries, melon and mango chunks would all work well too, to name just a few!
