Wedding Desserts, Yum!

Traditionally a bride and groom went cake tasting and selected a wedding cake.  The wedding cake was primarily designed to be several layers of rich flavors with intricate white or ivory icing.  Beautiful and classic.

Today, the possibilities cross many categories of desserts.  One of the most common alternatives to cakes are cupcakes!  You can layer them on stands for the traditional outline of a tiered cake or place them on beautiful platters and stands on your dessert table.  This yummy sweet minimizes the necessity for a cake cutter and makes delivery a simple process.

Another great alternative is pie!  You can offer a variety of your favorite pies for your guests to share.  I love this idea for a country wedding!

Other options include the new trend of a cookie table, donuts for the donut lovers, pastries for the Parisan inspires, or homemade desserts for the DIY inspired!

Like all aspects of your wedding day, consider your style and vision when considering your desserts.  Have fun planning and enjoy the tastings!
Happy Wishes,
