Butterbeer Ice Cream Float

Butterbeer has to make at least a few appearances on the list. Butterbeer ice cream floats are so good on a hot summer day so they are perfect for Harry’s birthday. Of course, if you want to have one at Halloween that’s perfectly acceptable as well!

Harry Potter Sorting Hat Cupcakes with Butterbeer Buttercream

Sorting Hat Cupcakes are immense fun for Harry Potter fans. Each brown sugar cupcake is filled with a stash of red, green, blue or yellow candy drops, (representing each of the 4 Hogwarts houses) which remain hidden under a swirl of butterbeer flavoured buttercream until bitten into. It’s a fun way for fans to find out their house.
