The Tahiti cookies were a big hit at my party! I know at least a couple of my guests were planning an stopping by the store on their way home to get more! I purchased six extra bags of cookies. It was lots of fun and there were no cookies or coupons left at the end of the party!!

Fun with Chocolate Fondue

 

Your Pepperidge Farm® Spring Dessert Party is all about connecting with friends while indulging together in decadent treats. Nothing says decadence like chocolate fondue served in a dessert fondue pot.

For an added touch of elegance and fun, complement your fondue by serving-up s'mores. Swap out those conventional graham crackers and substitute them with Pepperidge Farm Chessmen® cookies – simply top the cookies with a gourmet marshmallow dipped in the chocolate fondue sauce. Garnish the tips of each fondue fork handle with an aqua blue bead for the ultimate eye-catching accessory.

Create a Milano® Tower

 

Presentation is priceless and one goal of any good hostess should be to create special touches that her guests will always remember. Wow your guests at your Spring Dessert Party by using Pepperidge Farm® Black & White Milano cookies to create a dazzling cookie tower.

The dark-chocolate brown cookie and oval-shaped cut make them the perfect ingredient for bringing the color scheme and decadence of the party to life. Simply arrange cookies on a small white cake pedestal in a ring formation, and then gradually organize the rings smaller and smaller as the cookies are stacked. This may take multiple bags of

Preparing Your Party Bags

 

You are receiving enough pieces of decorative cellophane and ribbon in your party package to make 15 gift bags for your guests. They’re simple to make, yet look sophisticated.

Next, place two or three Pepperidge Farm® cookies (try the Milano® cookies first) in the bag, gather the material at the top, and tie it off with a ribbon. But don’t forget the name tags!

A Coffee Fix

 

Pepperidge Farm® cookies are the ultimate coffee complement. So rather than uncorking a bottle of wine or putting cocktails on ice, why not set up a coffee bar for your guests? Let your friends personalize their coffee drinks: offer foamed milk, cream, vanilla and cocoa powder along with a variety of flavored liqueurs or syrups. Don’t forget a selection of sugars for everyone’s different preferences. And for those who aren’t java enthusiasts, offer an assortment of teas, including herbal and decaffeinated.

This party may be about exploring scrumptious Pepperidge Farm® cookies, but you can't host a dessert party without a cake! More specifically – a three-layer cake!
