Quick brainstorm needed - 1980's party food

[BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger]

It's My DD's 11th birthday tomorrow, and she has requested a 'Party tea' that I would have had for my 11th birthday.

So far I am doing sandwiches, party rings, sausages on sticks and a cheese and pineapple hedgehog, but I know I am forgetting loads!

Please remind me what I am missing, I would be so grateful!

Vol-au-vents, crisps space raiders etc , fairy cakes, jelly and ice cream, Cadbury's fingers, iced gems

Strawberry jelly in a rabbit shaped mould.
Animal crackers.
Sausage rolls.
Vol au vents.
Cheese balls.
Fondue.

Soda stream pop.
Cheese popcorn.

Sausage rolls, party pies, fairy bread
Frankfurters with sauce
Pizza
Home made fruit punch
Cheesy mite scrolls
Ice cream cake

Jelly in those paper dishes.
Sausages on sticks.
Salt and vinegar Chipsticks.

Those marshmallow biscuit things - you can still get them in the Range.

A home made cake, preferably featuring chocolate fingers.

Cherryade.

Wagon wheels cut into triangles
Blamange (i have no clue how to spell that) needs to be pink
Crab paste sandwiches cut into little triangles
Salt and vinegar crisps
A tablecloth with wickedly dayglow flowers
A hodge podge of china plates
Music playing from a record player
A non helium balloon tied onto the back of each chair
A piece of cake wrapped in a paper napkin to take home at the end
Ribena to drink (or lemon squash if someone known for being clumsy was invited)

Thank you, I knew you would come up with the goods.

Eh....where is the Angel Delight?!
I want an 80s party.

Cheese and pickled onion on sticks
Mr Kipling fondant fancies

Jam sandwich ,s home made cake, with wobbly happy birthday writing on it done in one of those ice piping things definitely a rabbit jelly but a green one I remember lots of those ,can you play some party games? Stick the tail on the donkey ,musical chairs , sleeping lions etc?

Iced gems
Cadburys fingers
Prawn cocktail crisps (the puffy ones, KP skips, I think they were

Angel Cake
Butterscotch Angel Delight
Party Ring Biscuits
Chocolate Animal Biscuits
Mr Kipling Fondant Fancies
Jam Tarts

I want an 80s tea party now!

Wotsit crisps, Skips

Ham sandwiches, cheese sandwiches - both made with thinly sliced bread

Definitely jelly & icecream - I don't think I went to a party that didn't have jelly & icecream!

Cake was usually sliced and wrapped in a serviette to take home in the party bag and would arrive home a bit squashed.

Tuna paste sandwiches
Angel Delight or a Birds Trifle
Tinned mixed fruit
Salt and vinegar chipsticks

Yes to Wagon Wheels cut into four! The most luminous fizzy pop you can find, hula hoops, iced gems and sausage rolls. Not a cherry tomato or pot of hummous in sight! Great idea, hope your DD loves it.

Those oblong biscuits with six little blobs of pink marshmallow and sprinkled with coconut - can't think what they are called! Pink wafer biscuits, party rings (although the ones with artificial colours in were much more partyish - the new ones with natural colours are very pastel and insipid looking!)

Definitely fizzy pop, but not the real branded stuff - if such things still exist, it has to be Corona or Rola Cola like the Pop Man used to bring on a Friday

Yes Angel Delight!

Birds trifle
Those tiny pizzas cut into quarters
Marshmallow biscuits
Pink wafers
Iced gems

@NannyR These!

Jam mallows! I've not seen them for years.

If it's 80s party food and not 80s food in general then the cubed cheese/pineapple/white pickled onions on sticks, to make a hedgehog on half a cabbage or similar. Make it as big as possible!
Also triangles of triple-decker sandwiches pinned together with larger cocktail sticks, the kind that have little flags on the top. (Warn the kids to remove the sticks before eating! )
Soft Pâté or cheese spread on Ritz crackers.
A 'sophisticated' cake or dessert might go down well with today's 11 year olds. I used to make chocolate orange mousse in little pots, or glasses, served with langue de chat or almond biscuits. Or a stripey 3-chocolate terrine. (Bit of a faff but stripey terrines were 'in'. This was the start of nouvelle cuisine, after all 😆)
