We finally gave Jamie a Harry Potter Birthday Party. She loved it! There are some great ideas for Harry Potter Parties out there on the Internet. I’ve put links below pictures to where we found some of the ideas.
We hope some of these ideas inspire you to have a Harry Potter Party.
Hedwig Cake
We used a box of white cake mix, mixed as directed on package. Then pour mixed batter into 2 extra-large Muffin pan and bake (fill at least 4 of the extra-large muffin cups to make Hedwig and the sorting hat) and frosted with pre-made white frosting and coat the owl with coconut, using Oreo pieces for eyes, beak and feet.
Butterbeer
*2 liters Cream Soda
*1-2 tablespoons Butter Extract
*1-2 teaspoons Rum Flavoring
Add the butter and rum extract to the 2 liters of cream soda. Adding amount desired for flavor.
Cream Foam
*7 ounces Marshmallow Cream
*1 cup Whipping Cream
*1 teaspoon Rum Flavoring
Add the above cream foam ingredients to a blender and whip until smooth.
*Butterscotch Syrup, topping for over cream foam.
Pour cream soda mixture to a mug of your choice 2/3-3/4 full and pour a small amount of cream foam. Wait 10-15 seconds to foam, adding more if desired. Top with butterscotch syrup.

Sorting Hat
Made with the same above box cake mix batter from making the Hedwig cake. Pour some of the above cake batter in a one six-inch round cake pan, greased and bake, for the rim of the hat cake. And for making the top of hat use 2 large baked cake muffins (Using the above cake batter) for the top of the hat . Shape cake muffins as desired for hat shape. Color some white pre-made frosting with brown or black food paste and frost the layered cake pieces together making the hat and frost the whole hat cake.
