My daughter and I don' t know what to serve for a dessert for her 13th birthday party. any suggestions?

Question

she doesn't like cake, ice cream, chocolate, sherbet, twinkies, pie. We don't want any kind of pizza either.

Answer 1

doughnuts!

Make your own Smoothie Bar. Each girl gets to pick out ingrediets for her smoothie. Have precut fruits available. Also frozen bananas and yoghurt and lots of ice. Let each girl put whipped cream and colored sprinkles on top. Put a candle on top of birthday girls smoothie!

How about fruit kabob's? They look great and you can add marshmellow on the stick too!

Answer 2

Parfaits:

1 can Eagle Brand Milk
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 container heavy whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp almond extract
1 can raspberry pie filling
Graham cracker crumbs

Mix the Eagle Brand Milk with lemon juice and stir to thicken. Whip cream and add vanilla and almond extracts. Whip until peaks form and hold. Fold cream into milk mixture. In parfait glasses place some graham cracker crumbs, custard mixture, and raspberry filling. Repeat until you end with raspberry filling. Top with whipping cream.

Your daughter sounds like she's not into a lot of sweets or traditional foods. While that will help her stay healthier, it will be challenging when entertaining guests that have different tastes. You might consider getting them an ice cream cake and serve your daughter something like the parfait I mentioned above. Since the cake thing is all about blowing out the candles, you can have her blow out the candles on an ice cream cake and then the guests can enjoy it!

Answer 3

How about different kinds of fresh fruit inside a decorative boat made of a watermelon. You didn't say she didn't like cookies. How about a tower of cookies made to look like a layer cake. You could put the candles on top. It would be helpful to us trying to give suggestions to know what kinds of foods she does like in order to steer recipies and ideas that way. Sounds like you have a challenge.

Answer 4

simply put,, a birthday cake with 13 candles on it.
or try something a little different,,like have fruit all the way around it,,or,,jelly between the layers. or make the cake, in the shape of 13, by making cardboard cut outs, and line with smoothly lined aluminum foil.
lots of good books, on cake decorating out there. For her,, maybe platter of fruit, saying 13.

Answer 5

Apple Pie on pretty paper decorator plates or in plastic Fancy Champagne Glasses.

Answer 8

How about blondies? Since she doesn't like chocolate and brownies won't do - do the opposite, make blondies (the non-chocolate version of brownies).

Or Lemon bars:

Or both of the above and arrange them by stacking them into a tier (so it looks like a cake). It'll be different. Her guests can choose the kind they like and enjoy.

You can do this also use the traditional Toll House pan cookie recipe, but instead of using chocolate chips (since your daughter doesn't like chocolate) - use the butterscotch chips, white chocolate chips or peanut butter chips in the recipe instead:

Answer 10

Well your daughter seems to be hard to please, but it all depends on the theme of her party. You could do many variations of fruit. If is is tropical, fruit kabobs, Pretty in pink, watermelon, strawberries, and other pink/red fruits put into cupcake liners, pink or red would be cute. Fruit will always go over well as long as you are creative with it!
