Back to my juice comment, in my group of family and friends theres like 6 birthdays in a 4 month period. Ranging from 4 to 9 but I've been doing this 5 years. Cupcakes/cake is given after presents and the kids are literally on the go as theyre bored from sitting down watching someone else eat presents. So as they exit the room that presents were open in, theyre handed a cupcake. Only the smallest need assistant. There's no group "meal" sitting around eating cake. Theyre back to playing instantly.


Cake ruins the flow of that. Cupcakes are also easier to send home with the goodie bags.

So in reality theres juice but not when cupcakes are handed out as theyre on the go. Rarely does more then one even ask.

weird, so what, the bday boy/girl doesn't get to blow out candles? what kind of bday party has no candles to blow out?? and if they do, do you put a single candle onto a cupcake for them to blow out?

in our parties it's usually some games, then cake comes out, light candles, sing happy bday, make a wish/blow out candles, then everyone eats. that's when all the food/snacks/cake/drinks are served.

maybe more games, if not then open presents

Remember the cupcakes are often in cake form? I'll have to find a pic of the frozen (the movie) cake two weeks ago. Yes they blow out candles after present opening and then theyre all off and running. Heck we cant usually even seat that many kids anyways. We do this at the houses, chuck e cheese, skating, laser tag, golfing etc. Rarely do we sit em down for food

Most these parties are purposely inbetween lunch and dinner. We personally serve meals but the others dont.
