Outer Space Birthday

Today’s party is truly out of this world!  We see so many adorable parties for little girls and babies… but great parties for little boys seem harder to come by.  That makes today’s post even more fun!  With a modern color scheme, oodles of creative details and a beautiful table of solar snacks, this party is perfect for little astronauts.  Jasmine Clouser of The Couture Cakery let her imagination soar when she created this party for her son’s 5th birthday.  Get ready to blast off for some fun and adventure with this incredible Outer Space Birthday Party!

Jasmine designed the invitation along with the custom party printables, building upon a grey, orange, lime green and blue color scheme.  From there, she created a charming cake, cupcakes and cookies to match!  I love that Jasmine’s cake is modern and playful yet do-able for at home bakers.  She used cookie cutters to create the colored shapes out of fondant and a rubber letter stamp to emboss her son’s age and initial.

Oodles of Solar Snacks brought this theme to life!  From Planet Pops (red velvet cake pops inspired by Bakerella) to stick candies shaped like a space shuttle, astronaut and planet Earth.

Trix cereal doubled as Space Rocks and provided an inexpensive treat to be served from a large apothecary jar.  Meteoroids were created by topping  round pretzels with orange candy melts and a silver sixlets.  Too clever!

Mini push pop containers are filled with M&Ms to create Booster Fuel capsules while Cookie Crisp cereal steps in as Moon Rocks!

From the vibrant paper fan backdrop to the whimsical table banner and everything in between, this party is space-tacular!  What little boy wouldn’t love to get lost in this universe of delicious sweets?

A big thank you to my friend Jasmine Clouser at The Couture Cakery for sharing this charming Outer Space Birthday Party with us!  It is truly out of this world!
