Let’s get this Party started

1 / 1 / 201 / 6 / 21

The first day of the year is a  very important day for me, with lots of mixed feelings, but definitely a day for changes.  This is more than ever, last year we barely knew what was waiting for us, but this year … well I have a goal, to help you!

Yes last year, when the world was falling apart, in the middle of the chaos I found a new purpose. As many Americans had to reinvent and restart from the beginning from losing jobs to homeschooling, I found a way to help, to serve a purpose.

For the past 8 years, I been designing dessert stations, as a passion at first and later a full-time job.  I became very good at it, I had the chance to work with amazing event planners and been to famous places. I literally had a dream job. But with the unfortunate event that the “party” world got hit last year, I saw this dream turn into a nightmare… But I woke up from this nightmare and I found a calling, I found a way to make a difference and still do what I love.

I decided to teach my followers, everything I had learned to help them to see how I see. To be able to make analyses, to understand, and consequently to do it themselves if it’s what they desire.   So many people got financially affected, a lot of cut down on extra expenses, like the niche I was in. As parties got downsized, so did their budget for extra expenses which is totally understandable.  But I believe a party is a perfect excuse to build memories with family and friends, So my goal is to help you build beautiful memories together. So, Let’s get this party started.

In my opinion, to be a good host, there are a few steps that should be important to learn. It’s not just about the food, a good host should be able to make their guest feel comfortable and be accommodating.

But before we can get to details about how to be a good host, it’s important to determine what kind of party is it? kids or adults? men or women? Believe me, it makes a difference, a kid’s party is very different from an adult party.

So before we get into it, let’s just analyze a simple list of must-haves from any party so we can make decisions.

  1. what kind of party
  2. date
  3. theme
  4. how many people
  5. location
  6. invitation
  7. food
  8. entertainment

Soon we will be getting more into details and analyzing all the points, so keep in touch!

3 DIY  NEW YEAR’S EVE DESSERTS

A Sparkling New Year’s Celebration and Mini Parfaits

by https://homeiswheretheboatis.net/author/marymc427

Sparkling Mini Parfaits

We’re ushering in the New Year with Sparkling Mini Parfaits~ a festive and party size dessert~ easy to assemble and alter with your ingredients, making them as fancy or simple as you like!

My 2.5 ounce tasting glasses came from Pier 1 several years ago, but versions are readily available at Bed, Bath & Beyond, World Market and even T.J. Maxx & HomeGoods from time to time.

For quick assembly, I started with pound cake from the grocery store I cut in cubes, but you could use any flavor of cake or even cupcakes. Layer your cake of choice with lemon curd, custard or pudding, chocolate fudge or ganache, add some fruit if you like, top with whipped cream and some gold sparkling sugar!

DSC_0049-001

The controversial silver dragées have been used for cake and cookie decoration for years and add a little festive sparkle of silver for New Year’s. I don’t use them on a regular basis so I wasn’t worried about the small quantity in the parfaits, but if you’re concerned, eliminate them and stick with sanding sugar in silver and gold instead.

DSC_0032-001

And gold sparkling sugar is rimming

our toasting glasses in celebration!

I found mine on the cake decorating aisle of Michaels .

Add a sparkler in

celebration and light. . .

 

New Years Eve Cupcake Bark

by https://www.doityourfreakingself.com/new-years-eve-dessert/

Dress up your New Years Eve Dessert with some easy and classy chocolate bark! Use it as a cupcake topper or part of your party candy buffet! Recipe | Fancy | Edible cupcake topper | New Years Party Food | Easy chocolate bark - Do It Your Freaking Self

What you’ll need:
Wilton black chocolate melts
Mallow-bits
Gold and white sprinkles
Glass microwave safe bowl
Spatula
Parchment Paper
Baking sheet
Room in the refrigerator

1. Start by clearing room in your refrigerator. Trust me, when you get into this and there’s melted chocolate in random places in your kitchen because you decided to make this with the kiddos, you’re will thank yourself. Clear out a space to put the baking sheet in for later.

2. In your completely dry microwave safe bowl, melt down the black candy melts. Start by zapping it for 1 minute and stir. If the chocolate is not all the way melted, keep microwaving in 10-15 second bursts while stirring in between. You want a smooth consistency.

3. Spread the melted chocolate out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a spatula to get it nice and smooth. You want a thinner layer so it’ll break up easier.

4. Sprinkle the mini-marshmallows over the chocolate bark. Finish with a health sprinkle of white and gold sparkle sprinkles.

ADORABLE CHRISTMAS OREO POPS

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

by www.itsalwaysautumn.com

HOW TO MAKE CHRISTMAS OREO POPS

Here’s what you’ll need to make them:

  • Double Stuffed Oreos (normal ones won’t work)
  • Candy melts in red, white, and green
  • sucker sticks
  • candy eyes
  • Christmas color Sixlets (for the reindeer and Santa)
  • mini pretzel twists (for the reindeer)
  • sprinkles + star sprinkle (optional) for the trees

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

  • Double Stuffed Oreos (normal ones won’t work)
  • Candy melts in red, white, and green
  • sucker sticks
  • candy eyes
  • Christmas color Sixlets (for the reindeer and Santa)
  • mini pretzel twists (for the reindeer)
  • sprinkles + star sprinkle (optional) for the trees

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

This quick video shows how each pop is made, but be sure to read the written instructions below for all the details.

ONE QUICK TIP: I don’t think candy melts ever get quite runny or smooth enough on their own for dipping Oreos, so I add Crisco to the melts to thin them out. I’ve read you can also use coconut oil, but I haven’t tried that yet. Just melt the candy, then stir in a few spoonfuls of crisco until it gets to the consistency you like. I probably add about 1-2 tablespoons per smaller size bag of candy melts.

HOW TO MAKE SANTA CHRISTMAS OREO POPS

Dip a double stuffed Oreo into melted white candy melts, dipping it a little more than halfway in. Gently push a sucker stick into the bottom of the Oreo, right in the center of the half that is covered white. Place on wax paper and allow to set. (You can do a bunch and then put them in the freezer to set up quickly).

Then, holding the Oreo by the stick, dip the other half into red candy melts, not quite halfway, and place on wax paper. Use a white Sixlet to make the “poof” at the end of Santa’s hat. Use a little extra melted candy to “glue” on candy eyes and allow to set.

(I like to put some melted candy in a ziplock bag and snip a tiny hole at the corner, then “pipe” melted candy on the back of each eye.)

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

HOW TO MAKE REINDEER CHRISTMAS OREO POPS

Separate a double stuffed Oreo. Dip a sucker stick in melted candy and push it into the cream side of the Oreo, then replace the other cookie and press gently to sandwich the stick inside the Oreo. Allow to set (can be placed in freezer).

Break mini pretzel twists to get antler shapes as shown. This can be tricky and you will end up with extra pieces that don’t break the right way, but keep at it until you get enough (and snack on the ones that didn’t work!). Dip the end of a pretzel piece in melted candy and stick it into the Oreo. Repeat with the other pretzel. Use more melted candy to “glue” on eyes and a red Sixlet nose.

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

HOW TO MAKE CHRISTMAS TREE OREO POPS

Dip about one third of a double stuffed Oreo into white candy melts, then gently push a sucker stick into the Oreo in the middle of the white candy. Place on wax paper to set.

Put melted green candy melts into a ziplock bag. Snip a small hole in one corner. “Pipe” green candy in a tree shape on the Oreo. Add sprinkles and a star sprinkle if desired.

Christmas OREO pops are super cute and super easy! Fun Christmas treat to make with kids.

Easy + cute!

EASY CHRISTMAS TREE CUPCAKES

How to make easy Christmas Tree Cupcakes using Pretzels! So fun!

by www.yourcupofcake.com

Here are a few step by step pics for how to make my Easy Christmas Tree Cupcakes! I gave a few tips in the recipe as well.  Depending on how cold or warm your kitchen is the chocolate can harden quickly, so don’t plan on drizzling all the chocolate and then sprinkling.  Sprinkle as you go!  This is a great job for the kiddos to have!  Plus, you can use all sorts of sprinkles to get the same effect.  You don’t need anything fancy to make these trees, not even a piping tip!

by www.livecrafteat.com

reese's peanut butter cups + chocolate pretzel turkeys

ingredients for chocolate peanut butter pretzel turkeys

 

 

 

 

 

 

first, take three chocolate covered pretzels and arrange them like the image below:

chocolate covered pretzels

next, add some icing to the inside edges of each one.

icing glue on chocolate pretzels

place a reese’s peanut butter cup on top, gently pressing down so the icing sticks to it.

reese's peanut butter cup and chocolate covered pretzels

add a small dab of the icing to the back of the edible candy eyes and place them on the reese’s peanut butter cup.

chocolate peanut butter turkey favor with candy eyes

do the same thing with the icing and a piece of candy corn – add a little bit of frosting and place it directly underneath the eyes.

candy corn beak on chocolate turkey

now you just need to wait a little while for the icing to set and really work as a glue to keep the whole turkey together. it took about 1/2 an hour for me to be able to pick them up and really stay together.

oh, they’re just the cutest thing to have on your thanksgiving table this year! whether it’s for your own family or for your friends coming to visit, it really does add to the whole thanksgiving atmosphere, not to mention they only took five minutes to put together, so high five for not taking too much time out of your already busy schedule! *high five!*

chocolate peanut butter turkeys

have a happy chocolate covered pretzel reese’s peanut butter cup-filled thanksgiving, everyone!!

Turkey Rice Krispie Treats

Turkey Rice Krispie Treats decorated for Thanksgiving! Easy dessert that kids can help make!

By shugarysweets.com

How to make Thanksgiving Turkey Rice Krispie Treats:

I just made a basic batch of my favorite rice krispie treats and pressed them into a 15×10 inch baking sheet. You can use already prepared krispie treats too, if you want (although I must say homemade are way better tasting than store bought and we’ve talked a lot about how to make rice krispie treats at home).

Using a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter to make the circles, after the treats have firmed up, cut all your circles.

Feel free to use cocoa krispies to make some brown turkeys. Or use Indian corn to give a little more color to your birds.

For the “face” I used a Ghirardelli chocolate melting wafers (have you tried these yet??? OMG). But you can use melted chocolate piped onto the treat or you can use an upside down Hershey Kiss, or even a Reese’s PB cup. I would have given my bird a red waddle, but can you believe I had no red candy in the house? Or red candy melts (I happened to use them earlier in the week for a Christmas treat coming soon…true story).

DESSERT IDEAS FOR DIY


MONSTER RICE KRISPIES TREATS

3-ingredients to make these adorable (and delicious) Halloween treats -- Monster Rice Krispies Treats, Peanut Butter Spider Cookies, Nutter Butter Ghosts, and Witch Finger Pretzels. chelseasmessyapron.com

By www.chelseasmessyapron.com

These Monster Halloween Treats have a lot of different options and while they can certainly be more than 3-ingredients, you can definitely go the “minimalist” route and make some cute monster treats with only 3 ingredients.

I chose to use a variety of colored candy melts and ended up using about 1/3rd of each (12 ounce) bag of chocolate. If you do just one color, you’ll use just about the entire bag coating the tops of the Krispie treats. You can also use an assortment of eye candies or just one shape/size.

In case you prefer the convenience of shopping online, you can purchase the ingredients to make these by clicking the links below:

  • Parchment Paper
  • Candy Eyeballs (large, small, or bundle)
  • Candy Melts (bright green, orange, or purple)
  • Pre-made Rice Krispies Treats
  • Sprinkles (green, orange, or purple)
Instructions
  1. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. Add the candy melts (if using one color, separate it into 3 parts and if using different colors, place about 1/3 of each color) into microwave safe bowl(s).

  3. Add about 1 teaspoon shortening or vegetable oil if desired (optional, it just makes for smoother/easier application of the chocolate to the krispie treats) to each bowl of chocolate. (I use 1 teaspoon shortening to each 1/3 of chocolate candy melts)

  4. Microwave (one bowl at a time) of candy melts in bursts of 20 seconds, stirring vigorously in between each burst for 10 seconds.

  5. Meanwhile, upwrap the krispies treats.

  6. Once the chocolate is smooth, dip the krispie treats in the melted chocolate and then use a spoon to help spread it over the treat. You want it to be a bit ragged to look more like a monster.

  7. Working quickly (the melted candy melts harden fast), add candy eyeballs (however you want and whatever size you like) and if desired, colored sprinkles.

  8. Transfer to the prepared sheet pan and allow for the chocolate to set at room temperature. These are best enjoyed the same day they are made.
