House Warming Party

After moving so many times before we weren't really in the mood for a big house warming when we moved into our new apartment.
But I love having an excuse to set up a party table, so when we invited a few friends over to meet the new place I knew I had to use the sweet House Warming theme I had designed a few months ago.

This was a small and casual get together, so instead of a big dessert table, we had mostly savoury finger food and a couple of sweets for dessert: mini chocolate cupcakes and cake pops. Yum!



I used craft wrapping paper to cover the table and the boxes that provided some height to the dessert corner. We didn't want to put anything on the wall, so we wrapped the banner around the table, which turned out perfectly. The mini-bunting and the little “yum” flags on the cake pops were my favourite details. I guess everything looks cutter in small sizes!

I was very happy with the final result, I love the colours of this theme and it was great to see it “in action”.

Party Food - Fish Bowl Jelly

This is a great idea for a beach, nautical or pirate themed party.
Make blue coloured jelly and insert some gummie sharks or fish in it, when set. You can even use a fish bowl and make it a fun centre piece.
Kids will love it!

Party Food

Did you know you could use cookie cutters to make fruit and veggies stand out on your party table?
Any simple shape will give you endless possibilities to make your party food look yummy and fun!

You can make watermelon pops, great for a 4th of July party, or styled as magic wands, for a little girl's party.

You can make colourful fruit skewers, like these cute heart-shaped kabobs.

Or cut cucumber flowers for the base of a fresh Summer appetizer.

You could even get a specific cookie cutter to shape mini sandwiches, matching your party theme. These would be great for a child's themed birthday party!

Seasonal fruit is a great addition to any party table. These fresh treats are perfect for Summer parties and make a delicious and healthier option to sweets.
Fill paper bags with cherries or other small fruits and display them in trays or wooden crates.

Party Food - Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows


These are a great option for a sweet party treat if you don't want to spend a lot of time baking.
They're really easy to make and they'll be a favourite among the kids at the party.

Simply melt some chocolate, dip the marshmallows and sprinkle with your desired topping.

For a different look, use white chocolate and add food colouring matching the colours of your party. Dip the marshmallows and have them served on a stick. Simple, yet so cute!
