Hasting a party can be a bit of a hassle and can cause a lot of stress! So here are a few really great tips for making your party look extra special without any extra special effort!

Think outside the box and use some unusual items as molds! You can buy shaped molds on eBay or from good cookware shops, or you could find thing around your home! Why not clean out some lego bricks, and use flavoured jelly mix to create these cute little jellies! Great for kids parties, and even for adults! You could use them to decorate a cake or as a fun addition to ice cream.
If you want a sweet idea for a casual wedding, why not try making some paper cut-outs for the straws? You could make various mustaches, and when you're guests drink from the straws, you'll create some great photo-ops! But don't limit yourself to just this, simple shapes like hearts and flowers work well too.
Whether you're having cocktails or just serving milk at a kids party, adding decoration to the lip of a glass looks sophisticated yet fun! You can do this simple trick by swirling the rim of the glass in something sticky (try nutella or honey) and then dab the glass in a dish of sprinkles!
This cake has the wow factor, and yet it's so simple to make! Ice a simple cake with some frasting, then stick the empty ice cream cones to the outside. You can then carefully pipe frosting to look like ice cream into the cones and finish the effect with a bright red glace cherry on top!
