Growing up I loved having a Push Pop candy as a treat! Fun, delicious and certainly a pretty way to sweeten your dessert table is the latest push pop container ready for you to fill with layered mini cakes & buttercream icing, fairyfloss or coloured candy! I adore this idea, so much so that the containers will be available for you to purchase individually from our online store very soon! The possibilities are endless really!

I found some inspirational photos below and I know I cannot wait to use them!

Cowboys and Indians Birthday Party

Yee hawww cowboy! Cowboys and Indians- a birthday party many little boys would dream of having. Linda from Shoot 4 U Photography creating this amazing party for her son Zarrik's 3rd birthday. A classic theme, Linda styled this party perfectly. With natural colour tones reminiscent of the wild wild west, the dessert table featured an adorable birthday cake complete with a mini tee pee made by Natalie of Petite Bijou and I love how the marshmellows were perched on sticks. The backdrop and straw bales provided a true country and western atmosphere and the children retreated to the tee pees to have lunch & play. Great work Linda!

Roll Up, Roll Up

dessert table styled by Mon Tresor

This afternoon I had the pleasure of styling a candy sweets table for an adorable little boy's Christening held at the beautiful Italian restaurant Grappa in the heart of Leichardt. The theme for the Christening was Circus and the colours chosen for Emilio's candy bar were red, blue & white.

With approximately forty children attending, I envisaged the table would have lots and lots of jars filled with coloured candy. I laid a red and white stripe tablecloth and gathered it at the front to resemble a circus curtain. It was topped off with a double bow on either end {making all kinds of bows is another one of my creative outlets}

A customised ''E'' sat on the centre of the table within a vintage style red frame, and I also created the printable sweets labels, banner & chocolate wrappers. I know there will be some very happy faces at the end of the evening when they fill their white noodle favour boxes to take home, full of delicious candy.

the circus is in town!

Take Me Out To The Ball Game

Last weekend I celebrated my son Kayden's 7th birthday party at home. We chose a Baseball theme as he had just finished the baseball season here in Australia and what a fabulous one it was!

We incorporated elements of grass, baseballs, peanuts, chalkboard vintage scoreboard, and we even had the classic tune ''Take Me Out to the Ballgame'' playing in the background as we ate hot dogs and fries!

I was thrilled to see Kayden's party featured on the Amy Atlas Blog on Monday. Thank you so much Amy, it truly is an honor.

Here are some pictures from the day.
