Planning the perfect Rapunzel birthday party? Whether you’re transforming your home into a tower in the forest or decorating with floating lanterns, no party is complete without food that’s as magical as the guest of honor. From whimsical treats to hearty favorites fit for a princess, this guide will help you serve up a feast that’s as unforgettable as the storybook adventure.
Tangled-Inspired Snacks That Sparkle
Kick things off with snacks inspired by Rapunzel’s own creativity. Pretzel “paintbrushes” (long pretzel rods dipped in colorful candy melts) bring her artistic side to life. Sun-shaped sugar cookies with bright yellow icing nod to the magical flower, and “Pascal Popcorn” (popcorn mixed with green candies and edible glitter) is as mischievous as her trusty chameleon sidekick.
Add bowls of “Tower Trail Mix” filled with pretzels, dried fruit, and purple candies to give little adventurers fuel for their royal fun.
Tower-Worthy Main Courses
Little royals need real food before dessert. Serve braided breadsticks (because, of course, Rapunzel’s hair!) alongside mini sandwiches or tea party-style finger foods. For a heartier option, try “Maximus Mac & Cheese” in individual cups with little flags bearing the kingdom’s sun crest.
A build-your-own taco or sandwich station is another fun option—Rapunzel loved discovering new things, so why not let guests mix and match their favorite ingredients?
Magical Sweets for Your Party Princess
It wouldn’t be a princess party without a dreamy dessert table. A tower cake is always a showstopper, but cupcakes topped with edible flowers, candy braids, or tiny golden suns are just as delightful (and easier to serve). Add in some “Floating Lantern” jello cups (clear cups with layers of purple and gold gelatin and a small light-up tea light on top) to truly light up the dessert spread.
Don’t forget “Rapunzel’s Hair Braids”—long ropes of twisted cotton candy or licorice that are almost too pretty to eat!
Add a Real-Life Princess to Your Feast
The best way to turn your snack-filled celebration into a fairytale? Invite Rapunzel herself! When you hire a princess through The Princess Party Company, she’ll arrive in character, ready to bring some magic, tell stories, and join in on the fun—braided hair and all. It’s an experience that makes every bite more magical and every photo more unforgettable.
Whether you’re searching for a princess for a birthday party or looking to book a princess for a party near you, The Princess Party Company offers the most enchanting princess impersonators ready to make your child’s day truly special.
A Hair-Raisingly Happy Ending
From edible art supplies to tangled treats, planning food for a Rapunzel party is an adventure all on its own. With a little creativity (and maybe a frying pan or two), you’ll create a spread that’s worthy of the Kingdom of Corona. And for the most magical touch of all? Invite the tower’s most famous resident to the party by calling 888-590-1934 or filling out the contact form on the Princess Party Company website. After all, dreams really do come true—especially with cupcakes involved.
