Disney The Little Mermaid Inspired Oreos are the perfect magical treat for any under-the-sea celebration or movie night!
Inspired by one of the very first Disney films I ever owned, these colorful cookies bring back all the nostalgia—especially every time I hear Sebastian sing “Kiss the Girl.”
I’ve loved The Little Mermaid since I was a kid, and now I’m thrilled to share this fun, no-bake treat that even your little sea fans can help make.
With ocean-themed colors, candy pearls, and a splash of Disney magic, these Oreos are as cute as they are delicious.
The Little Mermaid became a big thing for Sylvia when she was about 3 years old. We used to go swimming at the local pools.
She would role-play Ariel and I was always Sebastian ha ha. Sylvia had a Little Mermaid swimming costume and we really did love the under the sea theme.
So today I am sharing some fantastic Under the sea themed Oreo cookies.
I hope you enjoy these Disney Inspired The Little Mermaid Oreos Recipe.

🔪Directions for Fondant
MAKE FONDANT PIECES A DAY BEFORE
Take a palm size amount of fondant and knead it until soft in your hand.
Coat the fondant mould with a light dusting of powder sugar so that the fondant wont stick.
Take a little pinch of the fondant and mould it into the shape that you want.
Wait a minute before pushing out the fondant piece and place onto a paper towel.
Using the gold spray, spray the fondant pieces lightly until you get the desired gold shade you like.
Repeat with the pink spray and once done spraying with the pink spray, add some gold to give it a shine
Using more fondant and the gloves, add 1 drop of purple or teal to the fondant and knead in your hands till the fondant is completely dyed and theres no wet dye left
Repeat process with other colour. Dust the mat again with the powder sugar and mould. Once you have all the pieces you want spray the teal and purple pieces with gold to give it a shine. Then set aside till the next day.
🔪Oreo Directions
Fill ¼ of the bottom pot with water and place on medium heat. Place the second pot on top for a few minutes to get hot. Add half a bag of white melts into the top pot and mix until melted. Dip in your Oreo until fully coated. Using a fork, pick up the Oreo from the bottom and lightly tap the edge of the pot so extra chocolate can fall off.
Place onto the cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Once dry, dip the top of the Oreo into the chocolate and then dip into the brown sugar. Grab a fondant piece and place standing up into the brown sugar.
Continue decorating the Oreos how ever you like adding the fondant pieces from the day before.
Enjoy!
