Cupcakes have certainly gained popularity recently, and this year is no exception. Whether in place of a traditional wedding cake or in addition to one, cupcakes are always a welcome sight! Display them in tiers like a traditional wedding cake or individually place them at each guests’ seat. Mini cupcakes make an adorable dessert table treat! Accent these mini creations with edible baubles such as delicate fondant flowers or butterflies. Recently, other whimsical confections have gained in popularity as well. Whoopie pies, which have a delicious creamy filling sandwiched between two soft cake-like cookies, are appearing as a delectable wedding treat. Cake pops are also an adorable, bite-sized snack that can be customized to fit any event. In addition to the wedding cake, some couples provide a dessert buffet of delicate pastries, petite cakes, cookies, exquisite chocolates and other delectable treats that allows guests to choose the desserts they like and serves as a stunning display at the same time. Your baker and local candy shop can provide a delicious array of items certain to satisfy any sweet tooth. Confections can also double as favors. Hand-dipped chocolates, nuts, mints or other candies wrapped in tulle, lace, or tucked into a beautifully adorned miniature box make a delightful gift and a lovely table decoration. Specialty chocolate and candy shops have a variety of choices for these tasty treats, some even offer personalized imprinted boxes or ribbon to top off these fanciful favors. ❥
