Best Summer baby shower ideas for boys

1. Make some blue cotton candy mocktails 

These cotton candy mocktails look magical! Try creating these amazing candyfloss mocktails that guests of all ages will adore! They even double as pretty decor and younger guests will adore discovering candy floss or cotton candy, as it dissolves so quickly and is so much fun to pull apart.

To make them, just pop a good amount of blue candyfloss in your glasses or flutes, then a sprinkle of edible shimmer in each one - then pour the liquid on top of the candyfloss to make it dissolve, so beautiful to watch and so much fun for your younger guests - and your older guests! You could even add some edible flowers to drinks to make them extra pretty!
