Graduation party recipes can be any type of party recipes depending on the type of party you are planning. Favorite foods for formal dinners will be different than picnic favorites. But when working on the menu for my daughter’s graduation party, I really wanted to incorporate some school colors as she was active in team sports for her school and some fun foods using the graduation theme. My daughters and I had a wonderful time developing these graduation recipes. I hope your teen enjoys them at their graduation party, dinner or picnic.

Then have your teen give you a favorite flavor of cupcake to make and decorate.
