This was definitely one of the most fun parties I have EVER put together - and my daughter’s sheer glee at the event made every ounce of sweat and money spent worth it. :) Lastly, the bear paw cookies were actually a gluten free option based on a delicious recipe from Elana’s Pantry since several members of my family and friends are allergic to wheat. and I was pretty darn excited about how they turned out. The “Merida hair” licorice and willo the wisp cotton candy cups were random strokes of genius while strolling through the aisles at Smart n’ Final. And it tasted even better than it looked, which was quite a feat! I also hired Posh Desserts to provide the bear cub cake pops to represent Merida’s triplet brothers in the film - they were cute, perfect, delicious little bites of goodness. Regarding food, I was thrilled to find a local baker who used the invitation as the inspiration for the cake design. By far, the biggest hit of the day was the willo the wisp hunt - the girls went wild for it! My daughter was thrilled to be included in the painting of both the Crafty Carver bead box and archery target (which also served as a dessert table backdrop), and also helped assemble the “willo the wisp” candies. We had a Crafty Carver beading station, a archery contest, and a willo the wisp hunt - all very in keeping with Merida’s story. I had a particularly fun time planning the party activities. Once Jessica Flynn of Capture Photography nailed the design down, I was off and rolling. So, we went with that and made the wild Merida hair one of our design focal points.
