Party Food
We all know that a crucial aspect to any party comes down to the party food. The more on theme you can keep it, the better! All Kristie’s creations were just that.
Simple, easy and oh so effective, simply cut up some watermelon and you’re good to go!
How good do these look! And perfect for a Jurassic Party theme. Each one is a mini choc cakes with choc ganache. Kristie found a perfect shaped mold at the cake shop to shape each one, but you could also use a knife and have a go yourself!
Roar! How good do these dinosaur brownies look. Once again, so easy to make and perfect for a Jurassic Party. You can get the moulds from Amazon, then all you need to do is pop in some fondant to get the same, pop them out again and leave it to set. Then top each brownie.
You have to be a whiz in the kitchen to whip up a batch of these cookies (which Kristie was). But, there are so many amazing cookie makers out there these days, this is definitely a job you can outsource! You can order dinosaur cookies here.
Turns out, marshmallows and pretzels covered in white chocolate work really well as dinosaur bones! The bonus is, they taste great as well.
Another simple and easy one! You can grab any chocolate-based bliss ball recipe and have some fun creating dinosaur poos. The kids will get a good laugh when eating these.
Such an incredible assortment of cupcakes all made by Kristie for the Jurassic Party!
This has to be one of my favourites. The nests are so easy to make (check out one recipe here) and then you just pop some chocolate eggs on top!
