Party Recap
My Hunger Games obsessed daughter could not choose a theme other than HG. We chose to do a dress up party. We played several games with trivia challeges, physical challenges, and a cornicopia challenge. I also decided to do a Mellark Bakery decorating station. I made sugar cookies in the shape of Buttercup the cat, the mockingjay, and a flower for Rue. I also made girl on fire cupcakes for them to decorate.

Desserts
I made the cake batter to resemble fire. I had red, orange and yellow batter for the inside. I made a fondant mockingjay painted with lemon extract and luster dust. The frosting was all buttercream.

Activities / Games
We divided the kids into 3 teams, they had a trivia challenge, a physical challange and the cornicopia challange. The Team with the most points won the games.

$150. I got all my pieces for the party either barrowed or mine. I got a few things for the dollar store, the good will and etsy.
