Pirate Themed Birthday Party


It's birthday season in our household.  Today we had a joint birthday party for our two kiddos.  I made a treasure map birthday cake.  The sand is made from graham crackers and brown sugar.  I put gold doubloons around the edge.  I tried to decorate on top of the sand, but the buttercream icing wasn't sticking to the sand, so I cute up pieces of black licorice for the dashed lines.


We had pirate snacks as well.  Cannonballs, barnacles, pirate gold, pirate rope, fish and chips (goldfish and potato chips), and fruit swords.  I also made balloon swords for the kids.  We had fun and it wasn't too much work.
