If, like so many baby mommas-to-be, you can’t decide on the right pink elephant baby shower food ideas, don’t worry. Here at Cotier Brand, we’ve got you covered. We like to think of ourselves as entertainment connoisseurs and we appreciate just how important it is to get it right – especially when it comes to food, which can so often get overlooked. So, with your special day around the corner and the theme preparations well underway, let’s take a look at some of the best pink elephant baby shower food ideas – including some unique decor and awesome recipes to try. So, grab a cup of something hot, and let’s get started!
Pink Elephant Baby Shower Food Decor Ideas
One thing we should mention now is that when it comes to deciding on your pink elephant baby shower food ideas, less is more. The theme itself is already pretty vibrant, so you don’t need ALL of your food to be baby elephant-themed – although it would be super cute if it was! For the purpose of this article, we have, of course, focused on all things pink elephant – but, this is not to say you can’t make a selection of our suggestions and add your own on top. Either way, it’s your baby shower and we’re just here to provide you with a healthy dose of inspiration! With that being said, let’s get to it, girl…
Pink Elephant Floral Plates
First up on our list of pink elephant baby shower food decor ideas is – naturally – the plates. You need ’em for eating on, snacking on, and keeping snacks for later on – in a nutshell, they are super necessary. Add into the mix that they are absolutely adorable and come in a variety of tableware options from Etsy – which is ideal for your pink elephant baby shower.

Have you ever needed a last-minute conversation starter to break the ice? Well, you’re in luck. Our 2-for-1 conversation-starter napkins combo does exactly that.
