Sprinkled Sweets makes custom treats for pet birthday parties on Staten Island: paw print Oreos, bone shaped pretzel rods, rice krispie treats and jumbo marshmallows in your party colors, plus your pet's photo printed on top. Pricing starts at $40 a dozen and packages start at $150. The treats are made for the people at the party, not for the animals. Order two to three weeks ahead and pick up locally on Staten Island.
Read this part first
Every treat on this page is a people treat. Chocolate is not safe for dogs or cats, and neither are most of the sprinkles and candy melts that go on a decorated tray. So the setup is simple: the human guests get the tray, and your dog or cat gets a toy, a bandana, or something from a bakery that makes food for animals. Put the tray on a table high enough that nobody can reach it with a snout, and tell the kids not to share.
What people order for a dog or cat birthday
Most of these orders are a rescue anniversary, a first birthday for a puppy or kitten, or a milestone like a tenth birthday. The tray follows the same rule as any other party: two or three treat types, one color story, and the pet's name on at least one of them.
- Custom Oreos hold a paw print, a bone, or the pet's name cleanly. This is the piece people photograph.
- Pretzel rods get finished as bone shapes or striped in the party colors, and they give the table some height.
- Rice krispie treats take a printed photo of your pet better than anything else because the surface is bigger.
- Jumbo marshmallows are the cheap volume piece that fills out a small table.
- Cakesicles and cake pops work as the centerpiece if you want one showpiece item. Both are special order.
Putting your pet's face on the treats
This is the request I get most for pet parties, and it is edible photo printing, which adds $10 to $15 a dozen. The photo is printed on an edible sheet and applied by hand. What prints well: a bright, in focus shot with the face filling most of the frame and a simple background. What does not: a dark photo of a black dog on a dark couch, or a full body shot from ten feet away where the face ends up the size of a pencil eraser.
The best looking tray puts the face on one item and lettering on the rest: a dozen photo rice krispie treats plus two dozen hand decorated custom Oreos.
How many treats for a pet party
- 10 to 15 people in a backyard: two dozen total, two treat types. The Petite package at $150 covers it.
- 25 to 35 people, dog park or block party style: the Classic package at $225, four dozen across four types.
- 50 and up: the Deluxe package at $325, plus a dozen cakesicles as the centerpiece.
Count humans, not animals. Two to three pieces per person is the number that works, and it goes up if the treats are the only dessert. There is more on this in the guide to how many treats per person.

Colors and designs that hold up
Pull the palette from the pet. A golden retriever party in caramel, cream and gold. A black cat party in black, white and a hit of emerald. Designs asked for over and over: paw prints, bones, a collar with a name tag, fish and yarn balls for cats.
Names, ages and short phrases are hand decorated at no extra charge. Happy Gotcha Day, Adopted 2019, and Still A Good Boy all fit on an Oreo.
Timing
Two to three weeks ahead. Treats are made fresh near your date and picked up on Staten Island the day before or the morning of. If the party is sooner, text and ask, because it depends on the week. There is more on short notice orders.
