All White Beach Bonfire- Happy 40th Birthday Nonet!


This past Saturday, Nonet celebrated her 40th Birthday at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas.  Her theme was an "All White" event Beach Bonfire.  All guest wore all white and the birthday girl was dressed fabulously in purple and pink! It was a beautiful day, not to mention catering done by the ultimate taco guy- Bajas Catering.  From freshly cooked carne asada/pollo/pork tacos to Buenuellos to Horchata right on the beach for the guest to enjoy as they sit around a bonfire!

For the dessert buffet, all white chocolate display was made to coordinate with the theme.  I made white cupcakes in coconut and cheesecake/vanilla frosting, white chocolate dipped sugar cookies, white chocolate dipped cream puffs, white chocolate dipped strawberries and blueberries, white chocolate cheesecake cups topped with a white chocolate dipped cherry and graham cracker crust, and white chocolate seashells laid out on brown sugar (sand).

At sunset, the whole party took a group picture by a professional photographer to remember this beautiful occassion...was lots of fun! To top of the evening, Natalie and Jasmin (my god-daughters!) did a hawaiian/tahitian dance routine for the birthday girl.  They did an amazing job! Such talented young ladies.
