A Summer Frozen Party!


Ever since Frozen hit the big screen, it's been a favorite "everything" with
my daughter.  The songs, books, dolls, clothes - you get the picture.  
It was no surprise she asked for a Frozen birthday celebration, and after a long 
winter this year, snowflakes were the last thing I wanted to think about.




Voila!  A Frozen party without a single snowflake!
Instead of a snow garnished cake, I went with magical wintry breeze cupcakes.





I melted and piped white chocolate swirls and embellished them
with clear sugar sprinkles for an icy effect.  




Making these treats was fun!  
The girls loved the Frozen ring that topped the blue frosting.




The party wand favors were a hit, and easy to make.
  I hot-glued tulle pom-poms to the bottom of clear plastic tubes with a white 
fluffy pom in the center.  Fill the wands with blue and white Sixlets candies 
and attach a Frozen ring to each of them; they snap on perfectly.  
The cap of the wand should be on the bottom for easy access to the candy.  




To make the pom-poms, wrap two shades of tulle around your hand
about 7 - 9 times, and tie the center.  Cut the loops and fluff them. 
You can find great tulle pom-pom tutorials on youtube.




I couldn't resist including summer fun party favors too, 
perfect for boys.  Fill small beach buckets with colorful chalk, 
bubbles, and shovels.  I printed and attached this Olaf picture from
the Disney website.  My daughter loved her summer Frozen birthday, 
and we are looking forward to catch Frozen on Broadway!
