Candy themed baby shower

I am helping host a baby shower for a first time mama due in mid March.  Her shower will be in late January or early February.  We are doing a candy theme, as we already have all the things necessary to make a candy bar.  (Link below if you're not sure what I mean).  The colors will be pink, white and silver, and mama is having a girl.

I am looking for game ideas or anything else that would fit in with this theme and be cute! 

I saw those onesie cupcakes and then I saw a onesie lollipop bouquet like this ( http://www.outblush.com/women/life/kids-baby/lollipop-onesie-bouquet-/ ) and thought it was pretty cool.  

Any game ideas?  Decorations?  Etc?? I welcome any input.

There is a memory game where when the guests match the baby related pictures, the guests win the correlated candy bars as prizes. I'm sure if you google you can find it. Some examples I recall are: twin boys = mike Ike's, baby girl = baby Ruth, epidural = lifesavers, etc

Okay, I have to admit I'm not a fan a baby shower games but that is really creative and nothing I could have ever come up with.

Your theme sounds really fun! I loooooove candy! I don't have any ideas on games really. Although I'm not huge on the game part. I do like playing bingo during the gifts though, kinda gives you something to do. 

I had some things on my Pinterest board that kind of relate. One is washcloth candies (http://pinterest.com/pin/19914423324001845/) and the other is washcloth smarties (http://pinterest.com/pin/19914423324001842/). I also thought these candy pacifiers were neat (http://pinterest.com/pin/19914423324001827/).

What about doing candy cocktails/mocktails..sure many of these can be made non-alcoholic with sprite/juices/etc. http://pinterest.com/candywarehouse/candy-cocktails/

You could also fill small jars with different types of candy and have people guess the number in each jar and win a little prize.

Thanks for the ideas, ladies!  I like the game idea! My only reservation with that is we played a similar game recently at a shower with a lot of the same guests.  The mom was having a Ruth, so it was a play on the baby Ruth thing.  (Now that I think about it, her shower should have been candy themed.)  I am going to see if I can do the game with a slightly different twist...

I also like gift bingo and Guess the number games!  Thanks!

The martini's look amazing!  I love the glasses with sprinkles on the rim!  So cool!  I couldn't get the other links to open but I'm off to search pinterest for what you were trying to link.  Thanks again!
