Rebecca and Esther's birthdays are only 16 days apart, so we chose to have their parties at the same time as one big birthday bash. They had a great time! Rebecca started asking in January for a rainbow party, so I had most of the food concepts planned for that, and I ran across a very cute idea for a cookies & milk birthday party for a first birthday, so that is what we did with rainbows thrown in to make it big enough to feed the masses.
 |
| The three dishes along the side were for popcorn and two types of cookies, we had sugar cookies with icing and sprinkles on the left, a rainbow of fruit in the middle, and the girls' cakes in the back with the rainbow of flowers. |
 |
| Esther's cake was decorated with piped buttercream ruffles. |
 |
| Rebecca's cake was simply frosted, but there was a surprise on the inside! |
 |
| Rebecca wanted to paint sun catchers with her friends. |
 |
| Esther LOVES cards! |
 |
| Surprise! White on the outside and a rainbow on the inside! |
 |
| The colours were done using fruit & vegetable juices rather than the more traditional food colours, which resulted in a more muted set of colours, but lots of different flavours in the cake! |
 |
| Esther was very excited about her cake! :) |
 |
| And, what the first birthday cake is really about.... letting the baby make a mess! |
 |
| Mess-making was a success! |
