18th birthday cake ideas

18 year olds may be celebrating the fact that they are all grown up but they older and wiser folk know that they are still large children. Yes they may be legally allowed to buy and drink alcohol, marry without parental consent and are probably flying the nest to attend university or college but they will still make mistakes, need assistance with finances and ultimately depend on brother and dad as much as they ever did. However this party is all about celebrating their emergence in to adulthood and sharing the celebrations with their closest friends.

When deciding what gifts for him or her to buy for an eighteen year elderly, they recommend purchasing gifts that they can share with their friends. At that age they are often closer to their friends than their relatives and have close friends who they are inseparable from. You could opt to signify their acceptance in to the adult world with a bottle of personalised champagne. Champagne is compulsory for any major celebration and this is definitely no different. Get the party started off with a bang by opening a bottle featuring his or her name as well as a special birthday greeting of your choice. You may even have a photograph of the birthday boy or girl printed on the bottle ! These personalised bottles also come in whiskey, vodka and wine to suit any preferences. You can turn the gift in to a pretty set with matching engraved tumblers, goblets or champagne flutes. You could engrave these glasses with the recipient's date of birth or name, generating timeless gifts for him or her which will be kept for years to come.

Another great gift for sharing with friends is the gift of retro sweets. These sweets date right back to the 60's all the way through to the 90's so everyone at the party will be able to relive their childhood by stimulating their taste buds with traditional treats. Sweets include everlasting gobstoppers, sweet necklaces, love hearts, sherbet dib dabs, alien craft, foam shrimps and liquorice torpedoes. In the event you need to incorporate these goodies in to a party game then why not stuff them inside a custom made piñata? These are available to order online either pre-filled or fill-yourself. They come in a range of designs from French donkeys to giant 18's. This is the ideal way to break the ice between awkward teenagers at any party.
