Harry Potter Themed Desserts / Food  
I'm thinking of making cupcakes or cookies or some other kind of treat for the release of Deathly Hallows. (I'm going to need the sugar rush if I'm going to read it all in one go.) Have you ever made any Harry Potter themed desserts? Post a picture, a recipe, or an idea I could steal borrow. :)

I would say make sorting hat cookies. They dont seem like they would be too hard to shape you know? And then maybe get some icing and write H or R or G or S for each house.

Or you can always go easy and make heart cookies with shippers. ♥ Im thinking of making a castle cake and decorating it hogwarts like. ;D

LOL, I just said the icing thing at the same time. :)

If you make a castle cake you should post pics for us to see. I'll bet that would look awesome!

I most certainly will! A friend of mine is a professional cake designer (she did my wedding cake and my moms 50th birthday cake, and my baby shower cake) I was thinking of borrowing her cake tin for a castle and some of her addons for the top. ♥ That is what happens when you are a Stay at Home Mom with lots of time. lol

I wish I were so creative! But between not being creative and having no patience mine would probably come out looking like Hogwarts after a Death Eater attack. lol

Thanks, you too. ;)

I've never made any HP themed food but if you're going to make cupcakes it would be so cute to use some food coloring and frost them in house colors. Maybe even use white frosting to put a G, H, R, or S on top too.

I just had a great idea! if you are having a potter party you can do bobbing for apples. But instead call it "Bobbing for Umbridge" or soemthing to that sort. Theme? Umbridge got dunked and it is your job as a good Hogwarts students to save her from drowning?

I dont know - just a random thought.

You could make cauldron cakes and serve butter beer... actually there's a whole list of ideas here... http://www.britta.com/hogwarts/recipes.html :)
I've the Bertie Botts beans before. Pretty good. I only seem to like jellybelly jelly beans anyway heh.

I don't really have a recipe for any Harry Potter themed cupcakes, but I do have one for margarita cupcakes. Seeing this post really made me want cupcakes.

I haven't, but I remember seeing HP House shots, and a sorting hat cake. I might have them in my memories still *goes to look*

Well, it's not a dessert, but I once attempted to make onigiri (rice balls) in the House colors using food colorings and unusual stuffings. Ravenclaw was blue dye and chopped waterchestnuts (bronze was too hard); Gryffindor was red dye and peach preserves; Slytherin was green dye and chopped apple (no peel); Hufflepuff was yellow dye and chocolate. (sweatdrop) It actually came out pretty good, though people in my Japanese class went "oO;;;".

The only thing I ever made were Ravenclaw Cookies. They had blue foodclouruing and blue icing. The icing made an R. Smart Cookies!
