Pirate Party

I've always known I wanted to make a pirate party. Well, there it is, hope you enjoy some ideas. It all started with the pirate ship, of course. I wasn't sure I could pull up a decent pirate ship cake, so I opted for a pretty cupcake stand:

We also made some pirate decorations.

And bought a crocodile.

Then, made sure pirates were properly dressed.

Ok, I might have gotten a little overboard with my own outfit..

And... back on the topic. Everyone got a treasure bucket with a little lego pirate and some food for a trip:

We found an old map in a bottle and we went for a treasure hunt.

What did we find? A pirate treasure chest in the form of piñata! See, opening that one required some work.

But the treasure was worth it.

We put our chocolate coins and gold bars in our buckets, and headed home for..

... CAKE!

Well, the cake melted a few times, cause it was too hot when I made it, but it was still delicious.

So it went, the day of the pirates. Hope you can use some of the ideas for your own party.
Yo ho ho!
