Pretty dessert tables are my fave

Today I’m feeling inspired by tables piled high with desserts. I think it would be fun to have a pretty dessert party and instead of filling the glass drink dispenser with punch, filling it with milk. One requirement, the desserts don’t just have to look pretty they have to taste good too. Nothing is more disappointing then a really pretty little chocolate looking goody and it ends up being rum raisin flavor.

    I'm sure the bunting helps too :)

    I already have two cake stands and am contemplating moving into a studio. I can't bear to part with them!

    I can't decide which dessert looks most delicious. I'm going to go with the cupcakes in the third picture. No, wait. The lollipops! No, the cakes. Screw it, I'll take them all!

    Yes, remember the chocolate cake on the cruise? Nicole got it everyday. And asked for it again even on Christmas when they brought us that gross fruitish cake thing. Ugh.

    Oh, I love anything with cake stands and bunting! I have always wanted to do a candy buffet but have never had the drive to actually make it happen.

    Mmm…my mom makes the BEST desserts – there was no such thing as cake, cookie, or brownie mix in my house. My mom refused to use Pillsbury cookie dough haha. When I left for college I was told that I was spoiled with my mom's baking. :)
    I miss it soooooo much though!

    My roommate recently made these cute little cakes:

    Aren't they adorable? :)

    i really like the green cake stands!

    I love, love, love cake and cupcake stands. The other day I wandered (or purposely walked) into the bakery that made our wedding cake to buy some of their scrumptious cupcakes and spent more time looking at the cake stands than I did picking my cupcakes!

  • On July 27, 2009 , Karen said:

    Ok, so this these are pretty much heaven! Nothing better than a large selection of desserts so you can make a little sampler.

    I like the idea of a milk dispenser, but it'd be a challenge to keep it chilled … must think this one through …

    I totally approve your need of good taste… so many things only look good, without the taste that should come with it…

    In another idea, I wish to get soon a beautiful cake display, like the ones you chose in these pictures. It would be beautiful in my bakery cafe!
