Idea

Party Highlights

  • What People Ate

    Assorted sandwiches on croissants, fruit salad, and french fries

  • What People Drank

    Raspberry tea, lemonade, citrus water

  • Desserts

    An array of French pastries: macarons, madeleines, decorated cookies, sugared marshmallows, croquembouche (cream puff tower), white chocolate bonbons, meringue cookies, eclairs, champagne cake pops, petit-fours, cake, and cupcakes

  • Party Favors

    While the girls played, we boxed up their decorated cakes and bagged the cake stands, aprons and chef hats for them to take home. They were also able to fill treat bags with any of the pâtisserie goodies they wanted.

  • Activities / Games

    When the girls arrived, they each decorated a pink chef hat by layering different sized cupcake liners together to look like a flower. We clipped the liners together with a brad clip, then hot clued them to the girl's hats. They also used stickers to add their name to the hats. After they had finished that project, the girls then went to the fondant station where they were able to roll and cut out some fondant for their cakes. They also chose a French themed white chocolate mold to top off their cake. The pastry chef showed the girls how to pipe frosting and then we let them decorate their cakes however they wanted using different shades of bagged frosting and Sixlets candies. We also set up European lawn games (croquet, badminton, pétanque, & horseshoes) and let them run around outside.
