A Chess Birthday Party

Saturday was Geo's 7th Birthday. For this birthday we decided to give him a Chess party and invite his some friends as covid gave a bit break from usual celebrations. Geo is very keen into chess.

  Our chess boy from past when he joined the first time in the chess club. It was bit of surprise to me too as he won a few games in his debut.

Invitations were sent out to a few only which was made in canva.

Chess cake was the aim. Base was a bit hard as for the first time I am doing the four layer and trying to make checker board.

Following that , chocolate ganache was done and covered the cake. Chocolate ganache done by adding milk chocolate to hot double cream, different consistency of ganache for the type of cake you want. It was done by Annu.The final decorations with checker board structures took time. Initiated and continued with Thomas girls 

Finally it came out well.

We had a party games. Began with treasure hunt.

Children had fun looking for treasure and enjoyed

the hunting.

Pinata always the favourite event for the kids and hitting the rook which we made over a week was great. Finally birthday boy were in tears as he didnt get chance to grab enough sweets. Friends spoiled him by giving all their sweets.

   Making of pinata in layers. Always it is a week task, covering daily a few layers on, over and other and into the shape by sticking inflated balloon over a small carton. Towards the end , balloon is popped and filled with various candies with confetties, tissue papers.
