{Real Parties} Chocolicious

Last weekend I styled a chocolate party for a nine year old girl and her friends.  It was certainly a chocoholic’s heaven!  The excited guests made their own handmade chocolates to take home before hitting the dessert table filled with everything from homemade chocolate birthday cupcakes to meringue kisses filled with chocolate ganache and Belgian chocolate spoons.  We used a simple yet effective colour palette of red and chocolate brown.

Here’s the Popcorn cup template that I created for The Ice-cream Challenge party.  You could use this for popcorn but it would also be a great party favour box if you are having a movie night theme.

The best thing is that it can fit on an A4 page so doesn’t require any resizing. 

Hint: Cut out the two shapes only along the outer edges.  The two square sections overlap.

Enjoy!


{Real Parties} The Ice-cream Challenge

Two weekends ago, I had the privilege of creating a party for an eleven year old girl who wanted a Masterchef and Movie night party!  In true Masterchef form, the dessert table was created as the Masterchef pantry for these tween chefs to pick and choose ingredients for their sweet creations, with ice-cream being one of the main ingredients.

Inspired by the ice-cream bar created by Amy from Eat, Drink, Chic, the pantry included a selection of icecreams, toppings, sprinkles and other sweets.
