Thanks to the highly anticipated Barbie blockbuster, Barbiecore is by far the hottest trend of the summer. And with Barbie fever comes all things pink—and not just in the form of fashion! Now, you can think pink while you eat, too. Whether you're planning a party to celebrate the release of the new movie, having a few friends over to binge Barbie cartoons or are just wanting to enjoy the fun trend in your day to day life, you can use these Barbie-inspired recipes including pink desserts, pink snacks, and pink drinks to channel your inner Barbie doll. Seriously, they're fit for Barbie's Dream House!

Here, we've rounded up a variety of recipes that you can add to your watch party menu. Feast your eyes on plenty of perfectly 0n-trend sweet treats like a classic strawberry cake, pink French macarons, and strawberry shortcake ice cream bars. There's also a few savory items to enjoy including our go-to movie snack of spicy sriracha popcorn (just be sure to serve it in a pink bowl) as well as delicious baked ziti which gives a nod to the 2006 animated Barbie movie, The Barbie Diaries.

And you can't have all that food without a lineup of drinks, too. We've found vibrantly colored cocktails like prickly pear margaritas as well as refreshing summer sips like strawberry basil lemonade and watermelon smoothies. There's even a butterfly martini that's so reminiscent of the movie Barbie Mariposa and Her Butterfly Fairy Friends. Now all that's left to do is grab some party supplies, set your party table, and of course, throw on your Barbie costumes!
