Ingredients for Bluey Toast

You will need:

2 slices of bread
Marshmallow creme
Blue food coloring
Fresh blueberries
1 banana
2 candy eyes

One slice of bread becomes Bluey’s face. Use the second slice—preferably an end piece or heel—to make the ears and muzzle.

You will also need a small bowl, spoon, butter knife, cutting board, and sharp knife. An adult should handle the cutting.

How to Make Bluey Toast Step by Step

adding blue coloring to the marshmallow fluff on toast to make Bluey toast step by step

1. Make the blue marshmallow spread

Place enough marshmallow creme to cover one slice of toast in a small bowl. Add a few drops of blue food coloring and stir until the color is evenly blended.

Begin with a small amount of coloring. You can add another drop if the mixture needs to be darker.

2. Toast and cover the bread

Lightly toast one slice of bread and allow it to cool. Spread the blue marshmallow creme across the entire surface.

Cooling the toast first helps keep the marshmallow creme from becoming too runny.

3. Shape Bluey’s face and ears

Trim the rounded top from the toast so the main piece has a straighter, rectangular shape.

Cut two triangles from the second slice of bread to form Bluey’s ears. Cover the front of each triangle with blue marshmallow cream and place them above the face.

4. Add the muzzle and eyes

Cut a rectangular or slightly tapered piece from the crust-covered portion of the second slice. Position it across the lower half of the toast to form Bluey’s tan muzzle.

Add two candy eyes above the muzzle. A small dab of marshmallow cream can help hold each piece in place. Finish the muzzle with one blueberry for the nose.

5. Add the blueberry markings

Arrange blueberries around the candy eyes and along the outer edges of both ears. These darker berries create Bluey’s distinctive blue markings.

Press each blueberry gently into the marshmallow creme so it stays in place.

6. Finish with banana details

Cut a few thin pieces of banana. Place two short pieces above the eyes for the eyebrows and use a curved piece on the muzzle for Bluey’s smile.

Serve the toast immediately while the fruit is fresh and the toast still has some texture.

Tips for Making Character Toast

Dry the blueberries first. Excess moisture can cause them to slide off the marshmallow spread.
Use cooled toast. Warm toast can melt and thin the marshmallow creme.
Make the face before adding the details. Position the ears, muzzle, and eyes first, then fill the remaining space with blueberries.
Choose firm bananas. A slightly firm banana is easier to cut into small eyebrows and a curved mouth.
Use a bread heel for the muzzle. Its brown surface creates the contrasting section of Bluey’s face without adding another ingredient.
Assemble it on the serving plate. Moving the finished toast may cause the fruit decorations to fall off.

Bluey Toast Substitutions

The original version uses marshmallow creme, but you can adapt the recipe to your family’s preferences.

Alternatives to marshmallow creme:

Whipped cream cheese
Thick vanilla yogurt
Buttercream frosting
A favorite light-colored spread that can be tinted blue

Yogurt is softer than marshmallow creme, so that version should be assembled and served immediately.

Alternatives to candy eyes

Make fruit eyes using banana rounds with small blueberry pieces in the center. This also lets you control the size of the eyes.

Other fruit options

Blueberries provide the best naturally dark-blue detail, but blackberries or dark grapes cut into age-appropriate pieces may also work.

Always adapt the size and preparation of fruit and candy decorations to the age and eating abilities of the children being served.

Can You Make Bluey Toast Ahead of Time?

Bluey toast is best assembled shortly before serving. The marshmallow creme gradually softens the bread, and the cut banana can discolor as it sits.

To save time, you can:

Mix the blue marshmallow creme in advance and refrigerate it in a covered container.
Wash and thoroughly dry the blueberries.
Prepare the serving plates and utensils.
Cut the bread pieces shortly before assembly.

Wait to toast the bread, slice the banana, and assemble the face until close to serving time.

What is Bluey toast made of?

Bluey toast is made from a slice of bread spread with blue-tinted marshmallow fluff for the body color, a lighter cream-colored fluff for the snout area, candy eyes, and small fruit pieces (typically blueberries and banana slices) for the nose and details.

What food coloring should I use for Bluey toast?

Standard gel or liquid food coloring works well — blue for Bluey. For a natural alternative, butterfly pea flower powder creates a blue color in marshmallow fluff. Mashed blueberries produce a purple-blue rather than true blue.

Is marshmallow fluff the only spread that works?

No. Cream cheese, Greek yogurt, or peanut butter all work as the base spread — each produces slightly different results in terms of color vibrancy and texture. Marshmallow fluff gives the brightest, cleanest color and the most distinctive look. Cream cheese with food coloring is a close second.

Is Bluey toast served warm or cold?

The bread can be lightly toasted, but it should cool before you add the marshmallow creme and fruit. The finished character toast is served at room temperature.

How do the blueberries stay attached?

The blue marshmallow creme acts like an edible glue. Gently press the dry blueberries into the spread after arranging the larger facial features.

Can I make Bluey toast without food coloring?

Yes. You can leave the spread white and use blueberries to create most of the blue sections. The result will look different, but the ears, eyes, muzzle, and blueberry markings will still suggest the character.

Can children help make this recipe?

Children can help stir the spread and arrange the decorations. An adult should toast the bread and cut the bread and banana pieces.

Is this a breakfast or a dessert?

Because it uses marshmallow cream and candy eyes, this Bluey toast works especially well as a special breakfast, party snack, or edible activity rather than an everyday breakfast.
