THE PINKALICIOUS PARTY
This is one of the most fun birthday parties I did. My kids love the book Pinkalicious by Victoria Kann and Elizabeth Kann so we decided to do a Pinkalicious Birthday Party!! Given that my favorite color is pink – I went a little pink-a-crazy!
THE CAKES
I made a few different kinds of cakes for this theme.
The Pinkalicious Cupcake Cake
- I used a Wilton oversized cupcake baking pan for this cake.
- You can use your favorite cake and white frosting recipe.
- I divided the frosting into 2 batches and colored one light pink and the other one dark pink.
- I then frosted the bottom half dark pink and the top half light pink.
- I used a #21 wilton tip and made the dark pink design of the top half of the cupckae
- The big cherry on top of the cupckae is just a big blob of frosting
- I then sprinkled the whole cake with pink sugar

The Pinkalicious Flower Cakes
- I made two 9″ round regular cakes and frosted them with white frosting
- I then used a Wilton #20 tip to make little pink flowers all over
- I put red, pink and white M&M’s in the flowers – you can also just use frosting for the centers if you cant find these M&M’s
OTHER PINK-A-FOODS AT THE PARTY
- I did go a little pink crazy! I served most of the foods in pink platter, pails and other containers.
- I put a lot of pink flowers and balloons all over and all of this was under our pink blooming cherry tree – it was really pretty!
Here are some of the foods I served:
This was the best theme party idea ever. I was really impressed by. The ideas were incredible and the food tasted amazing.
That would be my daughter’s idea of a dream birthday party! 🙂 And she would be dressed as the princess, of course!

What did you use for the top of the cupcakes?
Where did you get your cupcake stand?

I used pink milk duds that I found at Target. I haven’t seen them again but you could even just use light pink frosting to top the cupcakes. The cupcake stand you could buy through amazon. Ive posted a link.
Good Luck

Wow,that party must have been amazing! 🙂 I’m really impressed by the pink pasta and rice! How did you make them?? (pink is my favourite colour too! 🙂 )
Good old fashioned food coloring works wonders! Thank you for your message
You have given me some great ideas! How did you print off the happy birthday sign with the pinkalicious character? I love it!
Hi Jessica
I actually made the signs on my computer – you could use word or printshop or pages.
Hope you have a great party
