Oscar Party Time

I found this cookie cutter on Fancyflours to make my homemade sugar cookie Oscar trophies

Mini award trophies given to the winner who has the most correct wins on their ballots.  Printable ballots can be found on Popsugar. 

Oscar party supplies can be found on Orientaltrading. They even sell mini trophies for $9.99 a dozen.

Every Oscar party needs a red carpet!


As my birthday approached every year, my Mom reminded me when she and my Dad were expecting me, she went into labor during the Oscars as they watched.  Maybe this explains my love for the Oscars each year!   I do have a love for watching movie and music award shows, but the Oscars are special to me and I look forward to hosting the annual Oscar party in our home every year.  The best part of the award show parties is flexibility. Years past, I have provided tiaras, buoas, necklaces, and bling of all kinds. This year I am going with a relaxed party and serving fun comfort foods.  My menu will include mini sloppy joe sandwiches, pigs in blankets, assorted dips, cheese and veggie trays.   I've told guests to wear their most comfortable clothing,  enjoy themselves, grab a plate and drink, fill out their ballots and enjoy the show!  🏆🏆🏆🏆

Hosting an Oscar Party?

I am crazy about the Oscars whether I have seen any of the movies or not.  I am all about entertaining family and friends, and this is a fun event where we can gather with good food and cocktails. I have individual ballots for everyone to vote on who they think will win the categories.  Your own Oscar trophy to take home is the coveted prize. Check out orientaltrading for your party needs.

Suggestions for tasty& easy menus include "mini & small items". 

Mini deli ham sandwiches made on Hawaiian dinner rolls melted with assorted provolone/cheddar/horseradish cheeses.  Add a dash of mustard to sandwich, place all sandwiches in a large 13x9 pan, cover with foil and heat at 325 for 10 minutes or less.  Just enough time to melt the cheese. Serve on a platter. 

A large salad bowl with spring mixed greens, walnuts, dried cranberries and Goat cheese medallions will be offered.  I like to use Newmansown  Raspberry and Walnut Lite Dressing with this salad.  

A delicious spinach and artichoke dip recipe can be found on gimmesomeoven  and it's made in your slow cooker.  Serve it up with multi grain pita chips, crackers, celery, carrot sticks, broccoli, and sliced cucumbers.  It's made with all fresh ingredients. (Check out the picture below).

Simple dessert will be a variety of ice creams topped with your choice of chocolate sauce,  Bailey's Irish Cream, or Frangelico Hazelnut Liquor.  My daughter, Kaitlyn of SistersMarie, loves sharing her mini peanut butter and banana cinnamon waffles.   She purchases mini cinnamon eggowaffles,  heats as directed, spreads peanut butter on bottom, places sliced banana slices on top of the peanut butter and top with the another waffle for a fun mini sandwich. 

What will you serve at your Oscar party this year?
