I've been sporadically working my way through making all the monthly themed vintage coconut cut-up cakes and Frito Kid party ideas for a few years now. I am juuust about there! For this round I decided to double up and combine September's since they are both Back to School themed.
Here is the vintage Cut-up cake inspo:
from this little 1956 booklet:
Here's my take on "Ding Dong":
I am pretty sure it's suppose to be a school house but it's really a stretch of the imagination.
Now let's add in some 1954 Frito goodness:
The refreshments miss the opportunity for some Frito additions but I surely didn't!
Ice cream with Fritos is the BEST!
Did you know Circus Animal Cookies/Crackers don't come in the fun little boxes anymore?!
So I had to take it upon myself to fake some. I turned a couple of mac and cheese boxes inside out, glued down a printed image I found out in internetland of the box front, and added my own little string handle. I didn't buy any cookies out of principle due to the boring ass plastic bags they now come in.
And lastly soda... I picked apple soda since that seemed most schooly inspired.
Here is the spread:
This puts me at finally making all the Coconut cakes except the god awful ones (May and June) that I just refuse to do.
I now just have Frito Kid November lastly left. Because, spoiler alert, I did the December one last year after Christmas already and have it tucked back for this upcoming season.
Here are all of the themes collected together for your viewing perusal:
