Music-Themed party food

Creating party food with a musical theme helps bring together the party. 

• Musical cake - white icing on a square cake. Thin strips of liquorice to create the staff and M&Ms and liquorice strips to create notes. This can be done on a smaller scale with cupcakes.
• Piano cake fingers - arrange slices of vanilla and chocolate cake to look like piano keys
• Record/CD shaped pizza - make the inner circle plain cheese, or cheese and pineapple. The outer circle should be darker, use ingredients like pepperoni, capsicum, olives, tomato, meatballs or a mixture of these.  If making a CD there should be a very small dark circle in the middle as well, a piece of pepperoni works well.
• Put a bowl of dip in the middle of a plate and arrange carrot and celery sticks around it to look like a CD or record.
