Marquee Toaster Pastries

These mini movie marquees will let your guests know there’s a party "now playing!" Spread ready-made vanilla frosting evenly over boxed toaster pastries, and then place round yellow candy-coated chocolates around the outer edges to mimic marquee light bulbs. Royal icing letters (you can get them at the grocery store) spell out a special message, which means you can put your own name in lights if you wish! Simply stick the letters on frosting before it sets.

Red Velvet Push Pops

These portable pops are single-servings of cake with a lovely red carpet-inspired hue. Bake your favorite red velvet cake in a large jelly roll pan and let cool. Stamp out rounds from the cake using the open end of a pushable pop mold. Layer the cake rounds into the molds with cream cheese frosting and end with a swirl of frosting on top. A scatter of star sprinkles is the perfect final flourish!

Hollywood Star Cheese Board

You’ll be sure to win best director (of festivities!) with this glamorous star cheese platter. Thinly sliced cheeses from the grocery store are not only convenient, but they’re also the perfect size and shape to cut with star-shaped cookie cutters. Use various sizes of star cutters and arrange the shapes in ascending order to create a radiating star pattern. And no cheese plate is complete without a variety of munchable crackers and fruit for a fresh bite, so be sure to include those!
