At kids parties I always head for the cherios haha, they're so yummy! But when I make them at home they're never so nice :(]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2012 17:03:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=5785024&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#5785024 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=5780190&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#5780190 Author: popcorn

Those butterfly cupcakes are gorgeous from the Edmonds book!

Fruit kebabs are always popular and a platter with cut up vegetables, rice crackers and a hummus dip always goes down well too

Fruit - chop it up beforehand, and both the kids and adults will love that ]]> Sun, 08 Jan 2012 17:43:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=1421047&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#1421047 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=1420929&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#1420929 Author: SethsMama

I'm sure most adults would be fine eating what the kids eat.
It's a nostalgic thing :-)
Otherwise bread, crackers, cheese, pestos etc are easy picnic foods.]]> Sun, 08 Jan 2012 09:38:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=1420929&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#1420929 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41291&PID=1420921&title=1st-birthday-party-food-ideas-please#1420921 Author: EsMama
