Desserts & Cakes

Desserts are the final goodbye your guests leave with.  These treats are the last thing they taste from your party, besides whatever goodies you stuffed their gift bags with, and you want a “wasn’t this party awesome?” type-taste to linger on their lips long after they have left. Here’s dessert station ideas, your guests will be leaving with a sugar high and serious envy that they didn’t think of these sweet send-offs.

• Belgium waffles are one of the most delicious breakfast splurges.
• Perfect for fall events, DIY candy and caramel apple stations will take your guests back to their younger years where summer nights were spent at carnivals, eating cotton candy and funnel cake.
• Cute mini donuts with hot chocolate, coffee, or cappuccinos are a great way to get after meal beverages and desserts distributed in one!
• Have a few flavors of cupcakes mixed and matched with frosting flavors ready and have toppings on the table.   Use cardboard spoons coded with a message like “thank you” or the name of the guest and occasion to personalize the station.
• Donuts are versatile and easy.  Have an array of all flavors from Jelly to Boston creme to create an upscale Dunkin Donuts that will keep your guests running back for more.
• Crepes are becoming a trend on the dessert and lunch scene with popular newer restaurants.   Crepes are not overpowering and are just sweet enough.

• Set the table – Decorate the table with something that inspires you then put the table against a simple background. Cover it with fabulous cloth and add flowers and ribbons as an accent to the theme. Create platforms or place fabric-covered Styrofoam raiser boxes with different heights and shapes on which you can set up your desserts.
• Choose a collection of containers – Pick bowls, jars, vases, trays, platters, canisters and footed stands in combination of shapes and sizes. Scoops and spoons make the perfect accessory to a jar of lollies. Clear glass containers are great for holding colorful hard candies.
• Pick a color theme – Everything you put on the table must match your color scheme or theme. Try to use two or three monochromatic colors.
• Add labels – Use matching stationary, handwritten signs, chalkboard signs, and calligraphy to describe and name your delicious desserts.
• Sweet Selection – Balance an elaborate cake with mini cupcakes, chocolates, cookies, and hard candies on the table. Some great dessert ideas include cupcakes with couture cupcake wrappers, truffles, personalized chocolate bars, cookie garlands, whoopie pies, pillow mints, malted milk balls, sweet tarts, rock candy, taffy, almonds, macaroons, cotton candy cone sticks, popcorn boxes, panacotta, centerpiece cakes, jelly beans, mints, fondant covered petit fours and gelato. You can also include customized drinks!
