    International Delight Iced Coffee Table Scape
    You all know how much I love iced coffee…well, any coffee for that matter.  So, last night I hosted a game night and International Delight Iced Coffee tasting for some of my friends.  I had so much fun baking, decorating and setting it all up.  Then, I got to enjoy the evening with girlfriends!
     
    Party Invitation
    I made this invitation, uploaded it to my cell phone and sent it via text message to my sisters, my sisters-in-law and a couple of friends.  They got a kick out of the unique invitation.  Want to host your own game night and coffee tasting?  You can use a blank version of my invitation by downloading it HERE.  Once you’ve downloaded it, open the image with photo editing software and add the words.  Also, you should call your local Walmart BEFORE driving there to see if you can find the iced coffee.  I wish I would’ve had that piece of advice…check out my Google+ Album to see why!
     
    Party Table Set Up
    I made a painted chalkboard and it became our tally board.  My guests were to try each flavor of International Delight Iced Coffee and then vote on their favorite.  I also painted a vintage metal tray to hold the cartons of iced coffee.
    Paper Cup Wrappers

    To make cup wrappers, I cut out strips of white paper and stamped circles on the wrappers.  I would’ve made some that I could print but my printer isn’t working anymore.  I attached them to the cups with Elmer’s Glue Spots.

    International Delight Iced Coffee In Cups
    We put ice in the cups and poured the iced coffee over it.  I set out bottles of original and chocolate whipped cream, as well as chocolate shavings and crushed peppermint candies to use as garnish.
     
    Cake Platter Dessert Stand
    I painted polka dots on ruffled white baking cups and filled them with chocolate drizzled popcorn.  In the cookie jar, I put dipped pretzel rods with blue and silver sprinkles.

    Over on the far left are coffee cups with chalkboard paint that my teen painted with my youngest sister, in case anyone wanted hot coffee too.  I purchase the cups from a dollar store and the girls put masking tape around the cups before painting several layers of chalkboard paint.  We also filled a jar with different flavors of Lindor Truffles.
     
    Peanut Butter Cup Brownies In A Jar
    These little Peanut Butter Cup Brownies In A Jar were a big hit.  In these little jars are brownies on the bottom, chocolate frosting next, peanut butter cups on top of that and peanut butter frosting on the top!  I will post the recipe tomorrow!
     
    mother and daughter
    Here I am with my daughter Christine.  We are both enjoying our favorite flavors:  mocha for me and vanilla for her.
     
    Painted Framed Chalkboard Tally

    This is the final tally on the chalkboard.  Mocha International Delight Iced Coffee was the winner!  Everyone thought the iced coffee was so delicious.  One of my sisters said that the mocha flavor tasted like dessert!  A few are hoping for a sugar free or low sugar version to come out next!  We ended up playing only one game and spent the rest of the time gabbing but what more can you expect from a group of girlfriends, right?

      Tonia you’re amazing! This party looks fantastic. I really like all the details and color combo. You don’t look a day over 20, there’s no way that’s your daughter :)p.s. my walmart didn’t sell them either. I sorta freaked out. But thankfully found them in a different town.

      Ummmm…. your posts always amaze me. Your details are astounding! Where do you find the time? And how in the heck can she be your daughter! That doesn’t seem possible at all. She has to be your sister! You must have been five years old when she was born. That’s disturbing, but it looks like it!

        Why thank you very much Alicia! I don’t have your email so I can’t reply that way but I wanted to say that people often think she in my sister. I’ve always looked young plus I’m short…LOL! Once when Christine was in middle school, I had to sign her in at the office because she was late, they tried to give me a pass for class along with her!!! Christine passed me up in height awhile ago and my tween, Vanessa, is catching up fast!
