Hooray! Our “tiny HUGE” party was a huge success! What a fun time!
Mal was ready to party.
Ping”¦ not so much. (How adorable is he?!)
The food was definitely the highlight of the day.
On the menu: mini pizzas made from homemade (omg, delicious) dough.
Sliders.
Pasta salad made with tiny and HUGE shells.
Mini club sandwiches.
Which were served with potato sticks and Cornichons.
Mini BLT bites that Bridget made.
Tiny and huge tomato, mozzarella, and basil skewers that Elizabeth made.
A 3-foot sub that our friends Rob and Colleen brought.
Mini pug shark (not on the menu).
And huge beers and tiny shots of booze.
Tiny and huge Bud Lights!
Also on the menu (and the main attraction of the event): two giant hamburgers (one was a bacon cheeseburger)!
Our friend Mike baked the buns and burgers in 9” round baking pans.
And for dessert: a giant Oreo!
The cookie was made using a box of Betty Crocker chocolate cake mix, but with a little less water to make the texture less cake-y and more like a cookie. The filling was powdered sugar, vegetable shorting, and vanilla extract. We calculated the calorie total for the entire giant Oreo and it was just over 5,000 calories!
In addition to tiny and HUGE food, we also had a tiny and HUGE-themed playlist, which included songs with titles or lyrics related to anything big or small, such as “Big Pumpin’,” “Small Town Girl,” “Baby Got Back,” “Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong,” and “Tiny Dancer.” It was a fun addition to the party!
CrossFit 781 friends!
Our friend Kim baked a huge (birthday) Chocolate Peanut Butter cupcake as well as mini Chocolate Peanut Butter cupcakes, which were eaten in about 30 seconds. They were so delicious!
Happy birthday, Kerrie!
Good times at “tiny HUGE”!
We ended up partying late into the evening, which included a Flip Cup competition (guys versus girls) and chowing down on chicken enchiladas.
I’m already looking forward to next year’s party!

SUCH a cute theme for a party…I especially love the idea of an Oreo cake :)! Just out of curiosity, how many people did each of those huge burgers feed??
Good question– maybe a 12-14 people each?
That looked like a lot of fun! And the food looks great! Would want to taste everything!!
Now that is a tiny HUGE party. It’s a mix of small and BIG food and beverages. It’s a very nice idea. How did you make that giant cookie?
The giant tomato is hilarious! Fun party!
Bud light for tiny/huge beer?? I would suggest a 11 oz blue Chimay and a magnum blue Chimay! Now that would be beautiful!
Fantastic party!
GIANT OREO?? What?? That is amazing. I might have to steal this party idea.
Looks like SO much fun…I want to throw a summer party now!
That giant oreo blew my mind! The party looked like it was a blast!
This looked like it was so much fun! I love that you even had the music to go with the theme..
HA! This is such a cute idea!! You have some talented friends!
This looks too cool!! I love all of the ideas! 😀
My favorite tiny food would have to be chocolate chips.. They have a HUGE version, too, ya’ know.. Those giant Kisses you can get online and in some candy stores. 😉
What a cool and unique idea for a party. I like that you had a playlist that also went with the theme, that must have been fun. When you showed the pictures of Mal with the chocolate covered hands I was wondering what they were making, but that giant Oreo looks delicious! The pasta salad’s side by side cracked me up.
very creative party theme!!! Love all the ideas with the food & music!
What a FUN party idea!!!! Love it!
Nice work, Hauperts! I am very sad that I missed the giant Oreo…only my favorite cookie of all time!!!
We missed you guys!
It’s funny in Fl, they won’t serve 40s (the bud light you are holding in your hand).. We have to travel to Georgia to buy them!
That Oreo is beyond impressive and tasty looking!! I love a huge cookie cake!
Wow! Looks like all of your friends love to cook too! That’s awesome! What a fun idea for a party – might have to steal…err, borrow? it 🙂
