Birthday Theme Idea:Candyland



For a child who love candy, a Candy Land Theme would be an excellent and fun choice. Make the cake look like a candy land, and play games centered around the themes found on a candy land game. Make treat bags filled with candy and cookies (moms will love that, right?)

Candy Land Cake: Make a standard sheet cake in your child's favorite flavor. When it is cool, frost it with butter cream frosting in your child's favorite color. If you can get your hands on a Candy Land game board, you will be able to fashion the cake decorating to resemble the board. You can also go to Candyland.com to see a game board.

The Candy Land game features peppermints, iced gingerbread men, colored gumdrops, licorice sticks, chocolate candies, and circus peanuts.

Send out these cute invitations!

Sweet 16 Party Tips

The sweet sixteen party which you and your daughter plan should start with picking a theme for the party.  The theme you choose may dictate where you will hold the party.  If your daughter wants a bowling party, for instance, then the party would have to be held at the local bowling alley.  Some girls with summer birthdays will want their party to be on the beach or at a local pool.  And, other girls want their theme to be elegant and more adult.  For this last type of party you might want to have it at a restaurant or at your home.

Teens usually like to party alone, meaning they prefer to have a bunch of friends over rather than hanging out with their parents and other adults. If you plan a party where  adults will be invited, be sure and give the teens a place they can congregate without the adults looking over their shoulders. Supervision may be necessary, just do it from a distance!


Teens like food at their parties and their favorite is usually pizza, chips, coke. Don; forget an awesome cake. But cupcakes are always a great choice because no one has to wait until the cake is cut before enjoying the sweet treats!

Planning a sweet sixteen party doesn’t need to be complicated or stressful.  The most important part is to plan a party everyone can enjoy and remember – especially the guest of honor.
