My god-daughter Karissa celebrated her 1st birthday party and of course I told her mom who is my very good friend that I would help plan her party. We decided to go with a "Candyland" themed party. She was on a tight budget so I knew I had to be creative. First for the favors, to cut down on cost I decided to make Oreo cookie pops, they were actually easy and you can find instructions on the web, this is the one I went with:

Then I made the favor tags and tied a pretty polka dotted pink ribbon. Everyone at the party loved them, even my husband thought they tasted just like the ones from Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory which is a compliment!

I got this idea for a centerpiece from http://www.rachaelraymag.com/easy-party-ideas/party-decorating-ideas/centerpiece-slideshows/birthday-parties-centerpieces/1
but I added a few changes.

I found this local baker called For the Love of Sugar in Lakewood, Calif who makes amazing cakes! We splurged with the cost of this cake, but it was worth it, the cake turned out fabulous! The baker's name is Sarah, here is her website http://www.fortheloveofsugar.com/
