Please help! I need some ideas for displaying cookies for a Bat Mitzvah. They're having an island theme and are intereted in sugar cookies but don't want to put them at the place settings. The adult tables are having a palm tree centerpiece and the kid's tables will have a sandbox centerpiece.

Some of the cookies I was going to do are: palm tree, beach ball, surf board, star fish. I could do them on a stick.

If she decides to do the cookies for just the kids, there will be 80 cookies - with 10-12 at each table. If she decides to do them for the adults as well, it will be a little over 160 cookies.

Any display suggestions?

TIA,
Penny

Inside a basket- a sand pail- a straw hat. I've even seen small sail boat baskets at Big Lots.

I forgot to mention Oriental Trading has a section for luaus (spelling?) and it has tropical items that might give you some more ideas. Hope that helps.

Thanks kimsmom and sugarinspired - it gives me something to start with. Off to Oriental Trading now to look...

If anyone else has suggestions, please share...

If you are near a Target they have right now some really cute beach-y type mugs and cups... they have a plastic tumbler mug shaped like a crab... it is super cute! I have used a basket before and then used silk lei's around the top as a border.

HTH,
Kim
