Okay I'm sure most are familiar with the Apple, marshmellow, pb tooth snack. (Hopefully). Anyways, I have a child with a nut allergy but want to do this snack still. Anyone use something other than PB that worked?

cream cheese with a tsp. of brown sugar is super yummy on apples!

I thought of that but will it stick? i need the marshmellows to stick to the apple slices (marshmellows are teeth and apple slices is the smile(lips).

Could you try honey? it's sticky enough and if you use just a little I would hope it wouldn't run too bad.

You could pick up some Sunbutter (aka sunflower seed butter). It's safe for nut-allergic people. It tastes a bit different than PB though
You could use plain cream cheese, too.

This was in our curriculum the other week. The alternative it suggested was carmel.
