Serve the cupcakes on Strawberry Shortcake Dessert Plates with matching Beverage Napkins.

Let them play pastry chef and decorate their own cupcakes

To go along with the Strawberry Shortcake theme, why not let the girls decorate their own cupcakes with whipped cream or whipped topping and fresh berries? Set out bowls of sliced strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries and let them have fun piling on the goodness. The girls will love adding a sweet finishing touch with pink and green sugar from the pack of Bright Sugar Crystals. Also use Red Sugar Sprinkles or Pearl Pink Sugar Sprinkles to add more of a creative touch.

Serve up some delicious tea-time treats

A girl can't live on sweets alone, so we suggest a delicious tea-time menu inspired by the names of Strawberry Shortcake's friends.

Toast your favorite bread, then make tea sandwiches by spreading one side with cream cheese and the other with lemon curd or fruity jams like blueberry, apricot and of course strawberry! Or make savory sandwiches by layering pink ham with fontina or mild swiss cheese. Turn the sandwiches into special garden tea-party treats by cutting them into cute heart and flower shapes with your favorite cookie cutters or slice them into triangles. Serve your fresh feast with Strawberry Shortcake Plates and matching Lunch Napkins.

To complete your Strawberry Shortcake tea-time snacks, create Berry Bitty Parfaits by layering rice pudding or tapioca into a Footed Glass along with fresh raspberries, sliced strawberries and blueberries. Use Fruit Picks to make kebabs of fresh strawberries alternated with kiwi slices, honeydew and watermelon. Don't forget the Pink Spoons!

Whip up Strawberry Smoothies

Strawberries are everyone's favorite berry and your birthday girl and her guests are sure to ask for seconds of these easy Strawberry Smoothies. Blend together 2 cups of fresh or frozen strawberries with 2 bananas, 4 cups of orange juice and 1 cup of ice. Pour the icy concoction into Strawberry Shortcake Cups and garnish each with a squirt of whipped cream and a fresh whole strawberry. Pass out Krazy Straws and watch all the smiles!
