If you're planning a party for the big game this Sunday, we figure you've already got the basic four food groups -- chicken wings, chips, dip, and beer -- covered. But what about the sweets? It's not a party unless there's cake, right?
And if you're not throwing the party but you have plans to trash someone else's home during the Super Bowl, then you should bring one of these sweet football treats. Or send them the link to this blog with a note that says "hint, hint".
6. Chocolate Covered Strawberries -- Decorated as tiny footballs, of course. This is super simple dessert that any of you can throw together in a short amount of time. We even found a video (above) in case you can't figure out how to pipe the lines.

5. Blue Moon Cupcakes -- or Corona or Four Peaks Peach or Sea Dog's Wild Blueberry or really any beer that can be paired with a fruity frosting will work. Erica from Sweet Tooth pokes tiny holes in the top of her cakes and then brushes them with beer so they retain that delicious beer flavor. We'll take (or make) a dozen!

4. Fruity Glazed Popcorn -- Grape popcorn? How about orange? You can glaze your very own batch of popcorn with whatever flavor your heart desires -- as long as it's a Jell-o flavor. Although you might want to stick with the blue and red flavors. This is is a football party, after all. Color matters.

3. Super Bowl Stadium Sundaes -- These are probably the cutest little Super Bowl desserts we've seen yet! We are totally impressed with food blogger Katrina's waffle bowl turned stadium dessert. So impressed we might even try our hand at making these this weekend.
