Cookie and Babychino 2nd Birthday Party

My Baby Boy turned 2 and a couple of his absolute favourite things in the world apart from his bunny, sisters and me are babychinos and cookies.

Which made choosing the theme for his party pretty easy, and also the cooking, if you can bake a batch of cookies this is the party for you.

I'm feeling pretty pleased as I actually gave myself more than 2 weeks to plan this time and as a result I managed to get some themed invitations from Fairydust designs they have a great range of invitations, but if you need something special they can also do custom design.

They do cupcake toppers, thank you tags and bunting so organising a co-ordinated party is as easy as the click of a computer button. My girls loved the invitation so much they insisted I use part of the design to decorate the cake.

and how amazing are these Ah tissue pom poms, I am in love with the gold ones at the moment......

Selection of Pom Poms from Ah-Tissue

Random not so plain chocolate chip cookies on table

What about these, the perfect little box for a perfect macaron? I think so.

These lovely little boxes are from Details Details, and we all know its ALL about the details.  I got a stack of stuff from them, if you follow me on facebook you would have seen the cute strawberry cookies I made using one of their cutters. The wide blue ribbon is from Brown Button Trading Co.

I'm just putting this one it because I like it, I don't know why............

Blue and White Lollipop Cookies

Chocolate Macarons filled with white chocolate coffee ganache

This cute stand is actually a candle holder from Ikea with a white square plate from Target on the top. Decorations are a paper flower made with Ikea blue dotty Napkin and the center is a re-purposed cupcake topper from Fairydust Stationary designs, Terri came up with the idea of sticking the topper inside the paper flowers.

Blue and White coconut ice

Malteasers, Marshmallows (the only thing I didn't make myself) and


Chocolate Milk

 


I know what your thinking.... there was no savory or healthy food on this table, but it was afternoon tea and everyone stayed on for dinner so in my mind it was all ok, just like an afternoon snack of cookies and milk.
