Can I make Valentine Sweet and Salty Snack Mix in advance?

Yes, you can prepare this snack mix ahead of time. Simply store it in an airtight container or ziplock bag to maintain its freshness. It will keep for up to two weeks, but make sure to add fresh marshmallows after a couple of days to avoid them becoming stale.

What can I use instead of Goldfish Grahams?

If you can’t find Goldfish Grahams, you can substitute them with Teddy Grahams, graham cracker pieces, or even mini animal crackers. These alternatives will provide a similar sweet, crunchy texture.

Can I make this snack mix nut-free?

Absolutely! If you need to make the mix nut-free, simply omit any nuts and replace the M&M’s with chocolate chips if desired. The mix is already delicious and customizable to your dietary needs.

Instructions

Start by gathering all your ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Pour in the Very Berry Cheerios and mini pretzel twists, creating a base layer for your snack mix.
Add the Goldfish Grahams Vanilla Cupcake to the mix. These sweet grahams will blend perfectly with the other ingredients.
Pour in the mini marshmallows and M&M’s Cupid’s Mix, ensuring that they’re evenly distributed throughout.
Gently toss all the ingredients together with your hands or a large spoon until everything is well-mixed.
