Amy's Baby Shower

What a beautiful day! Amy's baby shower was at Megan's place, and with help from Gabby, Megan, Carol and I, I think it was a massive success even though it felt like an episode of master chef or something before we managed to get everything set up.





The cupcakes turned out so cute. I was planning to add sprinkles, but I think just going with the fondant toppers on buttercream was more simple and effective.





I also made some mini banana cupcakes with fondant little feet, love hearts, and "baby" "girl" chocolate toppers, and coconut ice (pink and white, perfectly themed already!).





Oh my god though there was so much food! There were chocolate covered strawberries, scones with cream and jam, macrons, eclairs, sandwiches (including Carol's delicious egg sandwich from my childhood memories), platters of cheese and sausage, rice paper rolls, sausage rolls, quiches, mushroom pastry tarts, teacup desserts, turkey and brie breads, and probably a whole lot more. And we didn't think we had enough.







We had a guess the number of jelly beans game, a make the diaper game, a guess the baby photo game, the forbidden word peg game, and a "Pregnant or Porn" game.



Pregnant or Porn was a success, although nanna Judy didn't quite get the jist of it and just ticked all of the "correct answer" boxes instead of "pregnant" or "porn" haha. A friend had sent me a picture of this game from a baby shower she went to, and I tried looking everywhere online but I couldn't find it. It looked like at one time it was possible to buy it off eBay from a lady who had made it, but it wasn't available anymore, so I ended up having to make it myself, and got thoroughly traumatised in the process. 



Amy loved our present of a Yummy Mummy voucher which came with a beautiful ripple blanket. Amy's party favours were so thoughtful and included my favourite flavour of her amazing candles, coconut lime.



The gifts were all so lovely and useful, I think Amy and Kyle have been set up for a great start!
