These 4th of July Dessert Skewers are a simple and delicious way to bring a patriotic touch to your celebration. They come together easily with fresh strawberries, fluffy marshmallows, juicy blueberries, and chewy red and blue candy strips. Finished with a drizzle of white chocolate and a sprinkle of festive sprinkles, they’re a fun treat for all ages.

I love how colorful and cheerful these look on a platter—and how little effort it takes to make a batch. There’s no baking, just layering and assembling, which makes it a perfect recipe to get kids involved or to prep ahead of time.

Whether you’re hosting a barbecue or bringing a dish to share, these skewers are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser with just the right balance of sweet and fruity.
