Party Invitations

• Do-it-yourself invites are easy. Just make fold-up treasure chest invitations using paper from a craft store.
• Hide a single chocolate coin inside the chest with all the important party info.

Party Decorations

• Welcome pirate invitees into your pirate ship (home) with eye patches and bandannas to begin the fun.
• Decorate a party table with treasure chests filled with gold chains and chocolate coins.
• Place the decorated cake in the center of the table.

Party Games & Activities

• Outfit the guest pirates with small plastic telescopes for treasure hunting.
• Create a treasure map and clues for the pirates to follow, leading to a hidden "chest" (decorate a shoebox) filled with gold foil-covered chocolate coins.

Party Favors

• Loot bags can hold gold coins, temporary tattoos and gummy fish for the trip home.

Food Fun

• Let each 'pirate' pat out their own pizza dough and choose their own toppings for personalized pizzas.
• Spiff up the Rum TumTum Pineapple-Ade by garnishing each glass with some maraschino cherries skewered on small plastic beverage swords.

The Day Before

• Make and decorate Pirate Cake.
• Make Buried Treasure Ice Cream. Line a muffin tin with black paper liners; place a candy sized chocolate peanut butter cup in bottom of each liner. Scoop vanilla ice cream on top. Freeze until party time.
• Cut up carrots and celery sticks; store in resealable plastic bags in refrigerator.

The Day of Party

• Prep the pizza dough ingredients and toppings in small bowls. Cover and refrigerate until you are ready to start the pizzas.

About 30 Minutes Before Party

• Make Rum TumTum Pineapple-Ade; chill in refrigerator.
