Summer Pool Birthday Party
It is hard to believe that my last post was about "Spring cookies" and now we are about to start SUMMER! Although I am NOT a fan of the 99ºF degree temperatures, but I do love the fun in the sun and the laid back feel of the season.
If you like to bake cookies, the summer is not the ideal time for the heat of the oven to combine with the heat that’s outside. But if you are like me who needs to bake cookies all year round, we just need to find out when is the best time to spend several hours in the kitchen most comfortably. For me, that is early in the morning, I prepare my cookie dough the night before and it is ready for me to cut out and bake the cookies the next morning, and one good thing about this weather is that the cookies will dry faster!
I made these Summer Pool Party Birthday Cookies a couple of days ago, and I love them, the pineapples are so easy to do and they look really cute. I gave them a twist and instead of using regular sanding sugar I used a sweet and sour sugar candy instead, which give a little punch to the cookies that is really tasty.
The bamboo wall with the birthday banner and the tropical birds were the inspiration to make some bird cookies, they where my favorite cookies to make, using the pico projector is much easier than the way I used to make this kind of cookie before.
When you are planning to make several cookies for a party, you can make a lot of cookies of the more simple designs and just a few of the more intricate designs. Remember that as soon as you put the cookies on the platter your cookies will start disappearing, so the less effort you pour onto them the better.
Here are some pictures of the cookies an ideas on how to decorate a Luau or Pool party.
Love all the decorations, the tropical leaves and the pineapple cookies goes perfectly with the decorations. Luau Party Set And the charcuterie board looks so delicious!
If you are planning on making some cocktails using a coconut cup is a great idea and I also love the tinsel palm tress! They look so pretty and festive!
