This featured submission was sent to us by Smita, attorney by day and blogger from The Party Wall by night. Smita’s four-year old son absolutely adores Spiderman, so she put together this Marvel-ous birthday party for him. We love how the bright retro pop art graphics contrast with the hand-drawn skyscraper background. The table looks like it came straight out of a comic book!

The superhero treats included Spiderman cake pops, Spiderman cookies and red velvet cupcakes with Spidey toppers, as well as “Spider Bites” lollipops that Smita made using red Wilton candy melts and a spider mold. The cake echoed the table backdrop, with Spidey perched on top against a row of skyscrapers. For lunch, there were “refueling packs” for the aspiring crimefighters, with spider-sandwiches, embellished water flasks and fresh fruit. The adults got in on the Spiderman theme, too, with a beverage tub labeled, “With great beer/wine, comes great responsibility.”  See a list of the super vendors below.
