Throw the best Harry Potter Birthday Party with this list of over 20 recipes including butterbeer, pumpkin pasties, snitches, and even gilly water!
Today is Harry potter’s 41st birthday!! Crazy to think that I grew up reading those books one at a time, patiently waiting for each one to come out. Also that the series itself has been around for 23 years since first being published in the US in 1998 (1997 in the UK).
Despite having a decent Harry Potter Collection of paraphernalia, I sadly only have a handful of Harry Potter themed recipes on my blog (which I need to remedy ASAP), so I rounded up several other great recipes from other bloggers around the web! This list is surely perfect for a Harry Potter themed birthday party with plenty of butterbeer iterations, snitches, pumpkin paties, and even gilly water!
