A Golden Christmas!

WOW! It's been so long since I've posted, I decided I better have something good. 

Like golden good. And that is just what I have. I'm sharing the golden themed Christmas party I hosted for my family last year.

A Golden Christmas! 

Hawaiian Themed Cake & Cupcakes!

Something that always gives me a bit of anxiety is the cake. I mean if I mess up a cookie I can just eat it and start over. But seriously, if I mess up a cake, I would want to eat the cake and start over. I can't confirm nor deny that has ever happened.

Tropical Cake Pops!

I was feeling beachy when creating the cake pops. Waikiki beachy. And I've got a lot more to share today. You're going to love it.

Tropical Dessert Table!

I told you there was another table. 

A tropical themed table, full of desserts, decor and more.

Luau Themed Sugar Cookies!

Sometimes the cookies just work as planned. And sometimes they don't. Trust me when I say I'm the fist to admit if they didn't turn out, And stress and worry about them. But then again, I'm the first to say when they do turn out and love them. 

Today I'm saying I LOVE THEM!

Tropical Oreos!

With the island vibes going, I couldn't stop with a few treats. And I'll admit, really nothing about these is tropical other than the way they were decorated. I can turn anything into any theme! These were all pretty easy.

Hula Girl Cupcakes!

Of course with this being a tropical themed party, I needed to have hula dancers. Have you ever gone to a Hawaiian luau and wanted to dance along with the hula dancers? Admit it, you tried when you were alone. Wait, was that just me?

Tropical Rice Krispie Treats!

One of the hardest things about this party was to decide which desserts to make. So it kind of looks like I made everything. At least everything I wanted to, like these Tropical Rice Krispie Treats!

Tropical Treats!

Seriously, I don't even know where to begin. This party is so full of tropical sweets and treats you won't believe it. Well, maybe you would, it's me. Because it's a tropical party, let's head to The Island. Not an island where you would find yourself surrounded by sand and the ocean, but my kitchen island.

Invitation in a Bottle!

While many of you prepared for a vacation to the beach, I was preparing for a celebration! This time a Tropical Sweet 16 Birthday Party for my niece. As always, the invitation sets the mood for my party. I found plastic bottles and filled them with beachy stuff and the invitation. The hours spent making these so special was well worth the effort!
