Top 3 Ways – How to Make Dessert Table Extraordinary

 

Warning, this article may make your mouth water. We are talking about top 3 ways on how to make dessert tables extraordinary ideas for weddings. There are three basics to really bring your table to life. We are going to discuss dessert types, presentation and display to really make your dessert table to extraordinary. You don’t want to have your table be like everyone one else, you want it to be apart of your wedding so much that is simply making its own entrance. Does that sound right? Is that what you are after? Good. Let’s get things started.

1. Desserts:

A dessert table would not be a dessert table without desserts. I don’t know about you but that is a lot of dessert talk in one sentence. But it is the truth. You need them in order to make the table super yummy that your guests can’t help but get their hands on something. What do you include on your dessert table? I am going to breakdown dessert basics for starters.

Sweet

Candy buffets are what makes dessert tables so worth it. At least when I think about desserts I go straight to thinking about all the possibly candy I could get my hands on. I love candy more than any dessert or sweet treat out there. It is like the child at heart never ends when there is candy present. A rainbow of colors of deliciousness. Sticky fingers and yumminess suction cup on our teeth. Sour, sweet or simply chewing. I love them all! So will your guest who will be along the line with the kids filling up their goodie bags.

Think about having a cotton candy table with the theme of a carnival with popcorn with red and white plates. Or if that is not your thing, how about a classic of assorted chocolates and a giant with a chocolate fountain.

Bake & Fried

Take a bit into another dimension. Sometimes I think baked goods or deep fried goodies can just bring you to a whole other world. Powdered sugar, soft fluffy donuts, and moist cupcakes are just the icing on the cake. Who wouldn’t want to take a bit bite into one of those? As a person who loves cupcakes… mostly baking them more than cooking anything. I love the idea of having a cupcake tower instead of traditional cakes. Also, try having brownies, Rice Krispie squares or cannoli as well as everyone’s favorite macaroons. With so many pastries and flaky treats, you will never run of ideas for your dessert tables. You will, however, run out of table space.

You could even have a whole section of just different flavors of pies. Pair it with some ice cream and you will finish your plate before you know it.

Out of the Box

Want your dessert table to really stand out? If you don’t want the typical why not try something that isn’t the usual go-to? Let’s think about ice cream! One of the coolest ways to cool down your guest after a long night of hitting the dancefloor is to have an ice cream bar. Who can say no to ice cream? Chocolate, vanilla, cookies and cream and my favorite bubble gum. Take a cone or a spoon with a bowl because you are on your way to taste bud chills. Try popsicles or sorbet or even frozen yogurt if you want more options for your guests.

Alternate dessert tables ideas are Smores stations, fruit stations and of course, you can find an unlimited amount of ideas just on Pinterest alone.

 

Personal Touch:

Here is how you can really make your candy table stand out. You can customize your candy with your faces on M&Ms or have the candy coordinate with your wedding colors. Really make this buffet table yours by adding your names to the cookies or even having you faces on soda pop bottles. These little persona touches really make your dessert tables yours. If you hand create a symbol or design for your wedding and add it thoughout your dessert table in little ways. It will defiently make your guests feel special on your day.
