Look at this GORGEOUS sweet from MiNDFOOD. So pretty and so versatile - we can add barks to your platter or dessert menu and even theme them for your event

With raspberries, toasted hazelnuts and pistachios and coconut flakes, this frozen yoghurt bark is just as good to look at as it is to eat. https://www.mindfood.com/recipe/frozen-yoghurt-bark-with-pistachios-raspberries-recipe/

Nautical, Naughty or Nice, Nationalities

You can also theme your party in any era e.g. Saxon, Medieval, Elizabethan, 17th & 18th Century, Victorian, Edwardian, 1920’s, 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s & 80’s.

Another great idea is to choose a couple of pop stars i.e. Elton John & Nana Mouskouri & have everyone come as either one or the other!

Feel free to e-mail us with your own theme ideas and we’ll happily add them to our list.
