A Lego party

On Saturday afternoon the kids attended a Lego party - great theme for a 6 year old boy. And of course, most guests bought Lego as a gift - he literally had a Lego feast. 
Great cake - but once again I noticed that the kids do not eat the sugarpaste coating.
The table was so cute and those little coloured squares on the right - coconut ice. The party packs were primary colour bags with each kid's name in "Lego" font.

 When we got home the Princess asked me to take down my Lego - these are mine from my childhood. All 3 of them had much fun for the evening and Sunday. Just goes to show - after 20 years still  in perfect condition. Got to hand it to Lego - super durable and really timeless.

  3. No this is an amazing theme!  And you can do so much with it.  I must be honest that at my 8 year old's recent birthday party the kids actually ate the sugar paste icing along with the cake, I did put quite a bit if normal butter cream icing over the cake before I put the sugar paste so maybe that made it taste better?  I personally am not all that fond of the taste of sugar paste icing.

    Looks like a stunning party...and an amazing theme.  My grandchildren are now playing with the Lego I grew up with...it really does not age;-)

  8. How cute - such a divine theme.

    Strangely enough my girls LOVE the sugarpaste, they eat all the leftovers after I've done a cake.  however I do agree that using a whack of buttercream underneath it definately makes it easier to eat.
