Food for Princess Party?!
I would like some ideas on food to have at our Princess Party!. We are having cupcakes and I was thinking about peanut butter and jelly sandwiches cut into stars or hearts with cookie cutters, but I need some more ideas!.
I don't want a bunch of sugary foods and fruit is so expensive!. I also don't want the same thing different then chips!. I want something like Princess Tea Party food! LOL!
Thanks!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
Since you are serving cupcakes, have you considered baking the cupcakes in ice cream cones and then decorating them!.
Finger sandwiches!. If your daughter likes club sandwiches, cut each sandwich into quarters and secure with a toothpick!. Or, you could use the appetizer sized bread (found in the deli section) and make the sandwiches from that bread!.
Chicken strips!. Either buy the frozen variety and bake or make your own!. Serve with BBQ sauce, Ranch and Honey Mustard for dipping!.
I know fruit is expensive, but melon is relatively inexpensive and can be cut into bite sized pieces and goes pretty far!. Grapes are also good!. Maybe some fresh pineapple!.
Jello cubes!. Different colors, cut into cubes!. Or cut out shapes with a cookie cutter!.
I would also suggest kraftfoods!.com for some really cool ideas!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you seen those "Princess Cakes" where a Barbie doll is shoved into a dome-like cake!?
Instead of making another sweet cake, consider making a stiffer meat loaf in cake molds!. You should try to carve the cake into a more dome-like shape!. To "ice" and dress the "cake" use mashed potatoes (you can colour it by pureeing some peas and veggies), and decorate with steamed veggies or yummy sauces!. Then shove the Barbie into the finished meat loaf cake!.
So it's a savoury cake that'll double as a meal!.

I have 3 grandkids under 4-1/2, and they all love to dip fresh veggies into Ranch dressing; Jello Jigglers (you can make them from apple juice with unflavored Knox gelatin); Apple slices with caramel dip or little bunches of grapes; Kiddy Mix (teddy grahams, goldfish pretzels & craisins or white raisins); string cheese or cubes of cheese with a thin pretzel stick stuck into the topWww@FoodAQ@Com
When I hear "Princess" it makes me think of the story of The Princess and the Pea!.!.!.!.!.Have you ever tried fried green peas!? I know it doesn't sound tasty, but they are really good, and they're fairly healthy!. I know I've seen them at Whole Foods!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
