So far I have sorted the cake. ANd I have puchased

jaffa cakes

garlic bread

accompanied by twice as much juice as you would ever imagine and youll be set!

oh and i had 40 but it was in disco hall so no wrecked house1...good luck

It's not food, but you will need earplugs.

we did simialr to PC for ds' 4th

strawberries/grapes/melon/pineapple was a success with us too (with optional chocolate sauce)

hi, we just had a party and they were so busy running around they didn't eat as much as we'd planned. However we had a tub of (shop brought) houmous and chopped crudettes, just carrots, peppers and cucumber and it all went!! Really easy and it looked like I was being health concious to all the mums that had a quick look to see what I was going to feed their little angels!!!! ..xxxxxxxxxx good luck!!!!!!!!!

Agree absolu with pinkchick, 'cept I'd forget about the garlic bread.

lol @ crudites

cups of popcorn!!! Its been an absolute hit when we've done it for dc parties. 50cl sized water - they seem to drink it when they have their own.

cheese and pineapple on sticks

mini pizzas
bowls of fruit (grapes, apples, pears, melon, pineapple)
MASSIVE amount of juice/water
carrot sticks
cucumber slices/sticks
ham/cheese sandwiches
you can also buy some meatballs in Ikea if you live close to one, heat them up and serve in a big bowl. There was not a single one left at the end of the party.
