What is Galentine?

Galentine started as a fictional holiday on the TV show Parks and Recreation, but it’s since become a real-life tradition to honour friendship. Forget red roses and candlelit dinners—Galentine is all about fun, delicious food, and quality time with your friends. And what’s more fun than baking together to celebrate your friendship?

How to host the perfect Galentine’s night?

A successful Galentine’s evening is all about creating the right atmosphere, enjoying yummy treats, and having a blast with activities that get everyone laughing. Here are a few tips to make your night unforgettable:

Set the mood

Create a warm and welcoming vibe with soft lighting, festive decorations, and maybe even a fun dress code. Think pink and red accents, pastel napkins and tablecloths, and cheerful balloons or banners. Make it extra cozy with comfy seating and ensure everyone feels at home as soon as they walk in.

Create a romantic table

What’s a Galentine without sweets? Set up a baking station with a variety of treats to decorate or make from scratch. Lay out all kinds of ingredients and decorations, and let everyone unleash their creativity!

Start decorating!

Use your favourite FunCakes cake mix and add a touch of creativity with fondant, sprinkles, and other fun decorations. Make it a party with your friends as you get creative together!
