I thought the cutest thing I’d ever encountered was my 3-year-old niece Scarlett, calling me on the phone: “Jaimee, will you come to my Strawberry Shortcake birfday party?” Will I ever.
And then I went to her Strawberry Shortcake birthday party, which my sister Kapri turned into 3-year-old nirvana — also known as a tea party — and watched Scarlett running around in a strawberry tutu and a strawberry purse. And that was the cutest thing on the planet.
The invites:
The room:
Strawberry cake pops, made by my sister, (who may be nuts):
The outfit:
And yes, that is a baby strawberry purse.
The party favors for each guest — aprons monogrammed by my sister (certifiably nuts):
Birthday cupcakes, candles (and helpers named Blake):
Decorating with dolls:
Kapri, pouring “tea” . . .
. . . which was really water . . .
. . . or strawberry soda.
The food matched:
Did you know there are strawberry-shaped marshmallows?
Scarlett’s balloons:
And the second round of party favors:
A pinata to match:
Baby brother and Granni, dressed as decor:
And a happy little girl, who asked last week if she could have another Strawberry Shortcake birthday party, and when.

I have little boys, but I would volunteer myself to help anyone with a little girl pull off a party like this. Absolutely adorable!
WOW Your sister truly outdid herself! Did she make the aprons entirely on her own?
Hi, I saw the strawberry cake pops you made, was wondering what is the top part made of? is it candy?
BTW very cute strawberry shortcake party!
hi i would like to ask where did you get the strawberry shaped marshmallows?
Gorgeous party, looks like they all had a fantastic day!
I absolutely love her baby strawberry purse.
Can you please tell me where she bought this from?? I have a little girl who would adore this.
Thanks!
Hi everybody – glad you like. The strawberry marshmallows were from Wal-Mart. The strawberry purse was from Gymboree, but a year or two ago. My sister started with store-bought plain aprons and sewed on the decorations herself. She bought the aprons online, and not sure where. The top of the strawberry cake pops is made from molded white chocolate candy — supplies were purchased at ABC Baking Cake Decorating here in Phoenix, AZ. IT was an amazing party. Glad you’re all inspired.
Love these ideas so much!! My four year old daughter is having a birthday party in March and wants the theme to be Strawberry shortcake. Do you think she would be willing to make aprons like those for me to order from her, like on etsy?
