It's Wednesday and it seems that the world is in a worse mood then it was on Monday despite being 2 days closer to the weekend. What better to get your heart pumping, blood rushing, fingers typing, feet tapping ... then a sweet treat? Introducing - sugar rush Wednesday - where we are kicking back with a delicious tribute to old school kids parties with these top treats to get you through the afternoon at work and well into the Thursday eve! Sound good?

One of the best parts of getting invited to your best mates 10th birthday was that you knew there was going to be a game of Pin the tail on the donkey, followed by some yummy treats like lollies & cocktail franks just to ensure energy levels weren't too depleted to later enjoy a game of Duck Duck Goose.

Join TL as we pop on our bike pants and care bear tshirts for a jaunt back in time to the land of kiddie party central... & smile - you're half way to the weekend already!

Iced Milk Arrowroots (click)
1. Whip up a batch of icing and pop in a few droplets of your favourite food dye (pink, red, blue?!).
2. Ice the base of the Milk Arrowroot biscuit.
3. Decorate with lollies! Try adding a couple of smarties as eyes and a nose and raspberry liquorice or a jellybean as the mouth... pop on some 100's and 1000's (rainbow sprinkles) for hair and hey presto!


Fairy Bread (click)
1. Grab yourself some white bread, decrust if you fancy.
2. Butter the slice.
3. Cover it in rainbow sprinkles/100's and 1000's.
4. Enjoy! (& do not utter a single word about calories)


Butterfly Cakes (click)
1. Whip up a batch of your favourite cupcakes
2. Once baked, using a knife, cut a small circle out of the centre of the cake - about 1cm in diameter.
3. Taking the circle cut out - slice in into two halves (this will be used later).
4. Fill the cut out section on the top of your cupcake with either your favourite frosting or some jam & cream.
5. Place the two halves into the frosting/jam&cream - at an angle to bear resemblance to a butterfly's wings!


What is your favourite kids party treat? And will you be treating yourself to fairy bread instead of a salad sandwich is happy humpday?
