Prep

Ingredients
- Styrofoam cones
- Colored tissue paper
- Hot glue gun
Directions
- For each color of tissue paper, cut enough strips (which will create the fringe) to cover the entire styrofoam cone.
- On each styrofoam cone, use the hot glue gun to create layers of “fringe”. We recommend starting at the bottom (widest part) of the the cone and adding layers as you move up the cone.
- Let the glue dry for a few minutes.
- Stick 4-6 lollipops into each tissue paper cone, spreading them around evenly on the top section of the cone.
- Set out the tissue paper cones on the dessert table for guests to enjoy!

Ingredients
- Sugar Cones
- Pink frosting
- Edible glitter
Directions
- Melt the pink frosting in a bowl.
- Dip the open end of the ice cream cone into the melted pink frosting (about 1-2 inches).
- While the pink frosting is still wet, dip the edge of the cone into the edible glitter.
- Let the frosting and glitter dry on the cones for a couple of hours.
- Set out the magical ice cream cones on the dessert table to be used with ice cream as a sweet treat!
Unicorn Mix

Ingredients
- Bugle Horn Chips
- Lucky Charms
Directions
- Toss ingredients together in a serving plate or bowl.
- Enjoy!
Additional Tip

Styling tips

Tip 1
We love the look of layering brightly colored garlands for the dessert table backdrop (use washi tape to adhere to the wall).
