How to Plan an Awesome Back to School Party with Ideas curated by Pineapple Paper Co.

Mariah from Giggles Galore made the most adorable back to school cupcakes with gumballs as apples. Genius! These apple cupcakes would be easy to recreate for your own parties!

Munchkin Munchies made this adorable One Smart Cookie Pizza. She made it with a homemade chocolate chip cookie recipe, but how easy would it be to make this with pre-made cookie dough?!

Rice Krispie treats are my absolute favorite snack, and Wilton makes it so easy to decorate them for the Back to School theme by turning them into little notebooks.

This next party just blew me away. We all know that I’m a fan of dessert tables for EVERY party (check out our MAGICAL UNICORN PARTY and STAR WARS PARTY), but this table from One Charming Party found on Amy Atlas isn’t your typical “dessert” table. The whole thing is designed with Back to School Supplies! Unbelievable, right?

If you’re looking for fondant cupcake toppers for your back to school party (or any party!), Lynlee’s is always a wonderful source of inspiration. Just check out these awesome notebook fondant cupcake toppers with the little scrabble tiles! You can make your own with Lynlee’s Craftsy tutorial for back to school cupcakes.

Here’s another amazing party found on Kara’s Party Ideas–I just LOVE the idea of creating a cake out of school supplies like notebooks, glue, and pencils! Go check out the whole vintage back to school party.

No party is complete without cookies, and although these ABC cookies found on Catch My Party are super detailed, you could easily make ABC cookies frosted in solid colors and they would make a cute statement!
