We are a bit Harry Potter crazy around here. Having been to every midnight book release and every first screening of all the movies, we might be a bit more than crazy!
I've even been known to make Weasley Sweaters for all the babies and toddlers I know. At least the ones whose parents would actually let them wear such a thing!
And when it comes to Harry Potter, we even get a little crazy with our snacks!
Harry Potter Chocolate Frog with Box Printable
These Harry Potter inspired chocolate frogs with boxes to match are so easy to make and add a fantastic touch to any Harry Potter party, event, or just a theme lunchbox snack!
The chocolate frogs you can buy these days don't come in a box, but rather come in a plastic wrapper. And to add insult to injury, they are $4 a piece! Yikes!
You can actually buy one chocolate frog in a box here... for $24 a piece! Crazy!!
This recipe makes 12 chocolate frogs using this frog shaped candy mold and ends up costs about 0.28 CENTS per finished frog and box set! Love that savings!
Since the chocolate frogs that you can buy are chocolate and crisped rice, that's what I recreated here. However, I do also like to make chocolate covered homemade marshmallows using this candy mold! Delicious either way!
Making the Chocolate Frogs
Grab the chocolate frog candy mold here, along with some dark chocolate chips, and some crispy rice cereal! Then follow these steps to make a magical treat for Harry Potter fans of all ages!
Harry Potter Chocolate Frog
Ingredients
- 8 oz Chocolate Chips
- 1/2 Cup crispy rice
- 1 mold Chocolate Frogs
Instructions
- Melt dark chocolate chips in a double boiler.
- Spoon 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each chocolate frog cavity and spread up the sides to create a shell. Place mold in the fridge for about 10 minutes or until firm.
- Place 1/4 cup of crispy rice in a bowl and crunch it with the back of a spoon to make the pieces smaller.
- Add 1/3 cup of melted chocolate into the crunched up crispy rice and mix.
- Spoon chocolate/rice mixture into hardened chocolate frog shells (still in the mold) and flatted the bottoms as much as possible.
- Place in the fridge until firm.
- Loosen from mold like you would ice from an ice cube tray, and place into boxes! Enjoy!

1. Print the chocolate frog box template on CARDSTOCK.
2. With a straight edge or Xacto knife, CUT along the one line marked "v v CUT v v". Do not cut the entire length of the section, only cut the thicker part of the line.
3. Fold every single line towards the inside of the box, one by one.
4. Take the WHITE TRIANGLE tabs and place them behind the rectangle side they are pointing TOWARDS.
5. Secure tabs with whatever you have available. I've found glue dots to be the best option!
6. Fold SKINNY WHITE TAB over the triangle and secure.
7. Repeat steps 3-5 until all tabs are secured.
8. Place lid flat behind the finished piece that says "FROG" and secure.

They won’t jump for Muggles, huh? Fill the frog shell with Jumping Beans. Lol

So, do you use cardstock for the boxes?
Victoria says
Hi Josephine, yes, good question! I do use cardstock. I will update the post to include that info. Thank you!
