Cute as a Bug T party


I flipped through an old magazine I got in college and saw this. Had to make it! So the idea for a tea party came to mind.
















For the cake I used a Pumpkin Pie Cake recipe. You can use any cake that goes with the season for which you will be making this. Easiest cake I've ever decorated!!

I opted for making these ladybugs rather than the ones in the magazine. It had cherry tomatoes on crackers with cream cheese and black olives for the head. I don't think any of the kids would've touched that. But these were a hit and this is my original idea so I was pretty happy.

Bettle Juice

1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1-1/2 cups white grape juice
1-1/2 cups orange juice
1 cup lemon

Ladybug Appetizers
2 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 teaspoon snipped chives
1/8 teaspoon minced parsley
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
Black paste food coloring
36 butter flavored crackers
18 cherry tomatoes, quartered
19 large pitted ripe olives
72 fresh chive pieces (about 1-1/2 inches long)


Butterfly sandwiches
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup mayo
