What’s a party without a little sparkle? From shimmering gold to pink bows and feathers, this first birthday party really shines. Little girls and big girls agree… all that glitters is gold! And today’s party is no exception! With incredible sweets created by our friends at Intricate Icings, this was definitely one sweet affair. Dazzling cakes, cookies and cake pops all inspired by the party invitation. Plus a mini, ombre-ruffle cake, made especially for the birthday girl! Love, love, love it! We’re just beaming over this Glittering Gold & Pink 1st Birthday….
Delightful, isn’t it?! We’ll come back to those amazing cake pops in just a moment…
First, check out THE most adorable smash cake ever! Ombre. Ruffles. And a glittering #1. Does it get much better than this? Only when the birthday girl digs into this mini ruffled buttercream cake, made just for her!
The invitation provided the inspiration for the cake, cupcakes and cookies. Shimmering gold, pink bows plus a few edible feathers to complete the look. Even the cupcake stand was glittering with fun (and the birthday girl’s name, Storey)!
Golden bows made from modeling chocolate take these cake pops to a whole new level of fabulous! They pair perfectly with charming pink and gold bow-shaped cookies.
A bedazzled photo booth with a sparkly gold backdrop set the stage for guests to strike a pose. And the perfect setting to capture this sweet moment… the birthday girl and her giant pink balloon!
From the ribbon backdrop to the glittering gold tablecloth and everything in between, we’re loving the sparkle! Thank you to Rachael at Intricate Icings and Krista at Artessa Photography for sharing this Glittering Gold & Pink Birthday Party with us!
Happy Friday everyone!

Anna – I’m not aware of how much ribbon was used for this party. You could try asking the event planner to see if she remembers how much was used.
