Bonfire Night: Sparkling Cake and a Cuppa event

Step into the glow of Bonfire Night

Turn your Cake and a Cuppa event into a dazzling Bonfire Night celebration! This theme is all about the warmth of a crackling fire, the excitement of fireworks, and the joy of sharing comforting treats with friends and family—all while supporting Brain Tumour Support.

Whether you’re hosting a cosy gathering in the garden or a lively outdoor party, these ideas will help you create a memorable event filled with sparkles and fun.

Recipe ideas for a bonfire feast

  1. Hot chocolate bar: Keep your guests warm with a DIY hot chocolate bar, complete with marshmallows, whipped cream, and sprinkles. Perfect for toasting marshmallows over the fire.
  2. S’mores station: Set up a s’mores station where guests can toast marshmallows and create their own gooey s’mores—a must-have for any Bonfire Night.
  3. Hot dogs: Serve up classic hot dogs with a variety of toppings, ideal for a night under the stars.
  4. Bonfire Cupcakes: Create themed cupcakes topped with edible “sparklers” made from pretzel sticks and candy, adding a fun twist to the evening.

Fundraising ideas to light up your event

  1. Sparkler Donations: Offer sparklers for a small donation and let your guests light up the night while supporting a good cause.
  2. Bonfire Bake Sale: Host a bake sale featuring Bonfire Night-themed treats. Encourage guests to donate their baked goods and raise additional funds.
  3. Fireworks Raffle: Organise a raffle with fireworks or themed prizes. Charge an entry fee and let the excitement build as the night goes on.
  4. Toasty Photo Booth: Create a cosy, fire-lit photo booth with blankets and sparklers. Charge for each photo and donate the proceeds.

Without the generous support of donors, the vital services that many of us rely on would simply not exist. For me, these services have been a lifeline, offering not just help but hope when I needed it the most. Every penny raised helps ensure that others can receive the same level of care and support that has made such a difference in my life
