Serve the girls a pretty assortment of traditional French pastries and cookies:

1. Set up a dessert table with big apothecary jars and cake stands.

2. Fill the apothecary jars with meringues, French marshmallows and colorful macarons in the party's colors: pink, lavender and mint green.

3. Pick up a few French pastries from a local French bakery and cut each pastry into thirds or fourths, so they are just big enough for a bite-sized treat. Place these little morsels in even rows on the cake stands to mimic a French pastry shop.

4. Pick one of the cake stands as the designated birthday cake, and set up candles for the birthday girl to blow out. Place one mini candle in the middle of each morsel to create a cake stand full of candles for her to make her wish on.

Serve french baguette sandwiches and Lorina Sparkling Pink Lemonade for a very French meal.Create delicious mini sandwiches on French baguette rolls for a casual but authentic meal. Here's How:

French Baguettes

1. Purchase a Take-and-Bake long French baguette at your local supermarket. Also purchase sandwich turkey, salami, brie cheese, tomatoes and oil and vinegar.

2. The morning of the party, bake your bread according to the instructions on the bag. Allow to cool.

3. Slice the entire baguette in half lengthwise so you can stuff it with all of the sandwich meat and cheese.

4. Create half of the sandwich with cheese and half with salami so birthday guests can choose their favorite type of sandwich. Before putting the meat and cheese on the sandwich, drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar along the inside of the bread and press together for French flavor.

5. Once the long baguette sandwich is assembled, cut it into smaller three or four inch long sandwiches that can be easily eaten.

6. Pull out a pretty cake or pastry stand and arrange the sandwiches neatly for a pretty display. Put the sandwich tray in the middle of the dining table, and serve with Lorina sparkling pink lemonade.
