Pink Party Ideas: Appetizers, Desserts & Drinks

[Pckristinv]

In the wake of our "pink" inspired month, I was wondering if anyone had some good ideas for any pink appetizers, desserts or drinks. My friend is having a pink party for her daughter and I volunteered to make something. I was hoping I could do something cute, tasty and pink. Any suggestions?

Here are some ideas for pink appetizers, desserts, and drinks:1. Pink Deviled Eggs: Hard boil eggs and remove the yolks. Mix the yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and a few drops of red food coloring. Pipe the mixture back into the egg whites and sprinkle with pink salt.2. Strawberry Caprese Skewers: Alternate cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella balls, and sliced strawberries on skewers. Drizzle with a balsamic glaze and garnish with fresh basil.3. Pink Lemonade Cupcakes: Make your favorite vanilla cupcake recipe and add a few drops of pink food coloring to the batter. Top with pink lemonade frosting (made with powdered sugar, butter, lemon juice, and more food coloring).4. Raspberry Rosé Spritzer: Mix equal parts rosé wine and club soda, then add a splash of raspberry syrup. Garnish with fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint.5. Watermelon Feta Bites: Cut watermelon into bite-sized cubes and top with a small piece of feta cheese and a fresh mint leaf.6. Strawberry Cheesecake Dip: Blend cream cheese, powdered sugar, and diced strawberries until smooth. Serve with graham crackers for dipping.7. Pink Cotton Candy Mocktail: In a glass, mix equal parts cranberry juice and lemon-lime soda. Top with a scoop of cotton candy and watch it dissolve into the drink.8. Pink Popcorn: Melt white chocolate and mix in a few drops of pink food coloring. Drizzle over popcorn and let it harden before serving.9. Raspberry White Chocolate Truffles: Mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and crushed freeze-dried raspberries. Roll into balls and dip into melted white chocolate. Let them harden before serving.10. Pink Lemonade Jello Shots: Mix pink lemonade Jello with vodka and pour into shot glasses. Let them set in the fridge before serving.Hope these ideas help! Have fun at the pink party!
