Setting a Tutti-Frutti Party Table

Who doesn’t love some fruity fun? I don’t know about you, but when I hear the words “tutti-frutti”  I can’t help but think “happy!”  The colors are so cheerful and bright not to mention the flavors of fruity goodness that give you endless possibilities for party time treats!  With simple snacks and supplies you can do it up big or keep it simple…and either option will make your guests smile!  Shortly after school was dismissed for the summer you might remember that my family took a trip to Disney…and that happy place is such a fabulous source of celebration inspiration!  While browsing one of my favorite gift shops in Japan at the World Showcase in Epcot, I found some goodies that sparked the idea for a tutti frutti snack for my family!  See how simple it can be to create a sweet setup…

tutti-frutti~fresh squeezed fun!

once home from our trip to Disney i could hardly wait to use these colorful candies…

and how fun are these teeney tiny cups of something similar to jello!?

so i temporarily packed away these goodies until the right opportunity came along!  and thanks to one of my most favorite places, the Target dollar spot, the perfect little party supplies were waiting for me one day!  i love these snack cups that were perfect for holding the miniature jello cups!

and since it’s a fruity theme, adding some of the real deal sounded like a good idea!  it was easy to dress up the cutie tangelos by simply dropping them inside these cheerful yellow baking cups…

filling little containers with the hard candies was a really easy way to add more pops of color to the table AND some more sugar!

the sunny paper cups in the background were another jackpot from Target!  i mean, how perfect for a tutti-frutti party or any lemonade stand!

so lemonade became the drink of the party inside this cute galvanized dispenser!

i loved this tutti-frutti banner and merely taped it to the wall and chalkboard with some bright, washi tape!  i rely on washi tape for all kinds of party decorations…it’s cute enough to let it show when hanging paper garlands or poms so it makes quick and easy work of decorating!

and with a slow hand, i tried some lettering skills on a chalkboard…i’ve been practicing (a little!)  seriously, i really have horrible everyday handwriting…so this is pretty good for me!

and for the main sweet treat…colorful, pink lemonade cupcakes topped with some candy fruit!

my kids don’t always love a ton of icing so i decided to rim the edges of the cakes with bright sprinkles and add a smaller dollop of icing in the middle!  i love the way they turned out!

colorful treats all grouped together make this table shine!  even just a few tutti-frutti goodies look spectacular perched up on pretty cake stands!

so if you’re looking for one of the most cheerful themes for summer, and it IS still summer, go ahead and serve up some fun…

cheers to a fresh squeezed, tutti-frutti celebration!
