Cake! You can have pink icing, pink sponge, pink decorations.
Marshmallows.

Taramasalata? Personally I hate it, but it is pink. You can buy tubs of it if you don't want yo make it.
Or beetroot hummus, which I believe is easy to make, and would be nicer in my opinion.
Smoked salmon pinwheels?
Cocktail sausages?

You can get or make pink pasta - it's coloured with beet. So you could do a pasta salad with red onions, red peppers etc, or a hot pasta with smoked salmon or something?

Also saw these at a breast cancer function, which might be pretty:

If you wanted to serve cheese, Wensleydale with cranberries is fairly pink in colour, and very yummy, (and most supermarkets seem to sell it, so easy to get hold of).

I have a favourite party canapé which looks really pretty - red chicory which you separate out by the leaves, on each leaf put a few small squares of feta cheese and some pomegranate seeds. Awesome combination of sweet, bitter, salty, soft and crisp. And looks just lovely.
