After trying on crowns and gowns and counting the royal treasure, princesses tend to get hungry. At your daughter's princess birthday party, food and drink are an important part of creating the atmosphere of a royal celebration. Whether you are just going for cake and ice cream or putting out an impressive tea party spread, use these princess birthday party food ideas to feed the hungry royals.
Tea Party Food
Set out a variety of finger foods on small decorative plates to bring an atmosphere of elegance to the party. Finger sandwiches of ham and cream cheese, carrot sticks, fruit medley and apples and cheese bits on toothpicks will give girls healthy and filling food choices. Label each plate with a decorative note card for giggles (such as Snow White Apple Bites and Rapunzel's Braided Bread Sticks).
Delicious Drinks
Whether you are having a princess tea party or just need drinks for the guests, think sweet and colorful. Pink lemonade, strawberry tea or even cherry limeade drinks will give plenty of pink that's mandatory for any princess party. Consider drinks like strawberry or chocolate milk, party slush or even water with colored ice cubes.
Cake and Ice Cream
A princess birthday party wouldn't be complete without cake and ice cream. Choose a professionally decorated one in colors to match the party or make one yourself using inspiration from any book or movie. Many parents find that sweetly decorated cupcakes give girls their own portion and make less work for the grownups. Ice cream can be any complementary flavor, but look for pink or white with ribbons of chocolate for a pretty look. Ice cream cones also work well for little hands.
