That starry cake is a great compliment to the gold stars hanging from the ceiling. Cupcakes, macarons, and chocolate chip cookies are yummy companions.

Dessert Table: Starry Night Baby Shower
I love a co-ed baby shower, because let's face it, there isn't a lot for the father-to-be to do while the bun's still in the oven. A sophisticated, but fun, co-ed shower helps get dad excited and geared up for the little one's arrival. 100 Layer Cakelet featured this Peter Pan dessert table for a baby shower designed by Sugar & Fluff. Photographer Richelle Dante's pictures make the sweets look delicious.
I love that each guest had a mint green macaron waiting at their plate. What a sweet way to start a meal.

Cookie Constellations
I'm always looking for ways to make learning fun and interactive for my little one. She likes to help me bake, and of course she loves cookies, so a day of making cookie constellations would be perfect for her. I saw these adorable cookies on Carnets parisien and thought I'd share.
If you want to reduce the time and mess involved in this project, bake the cookies after kiddo goes to bed and then unveil the "make a constellation" game during playtime the next day. Look at pics of constellations, talk about them, and see if your little one can recreate the shapes she sees.

Dessert Table: Out of This World!
The Sweetest Occasion featured this baby shower's outer space dessert table yesterday. Emily of Paper Tiger Press designed this table to celebrate a friend's soon-to-arrive new baby. The father-to-be daydreamed about being an astronaut when he was a kid, and loved the idea for his son.
A gold star bedazzled a light teal backdrop set the stage for lots of glittery treats. I like that Emily opted for this more sophisticated shade of teal than traditional powdery, baby blue.
Clear risers virtually disappear on the display. From afar, it almost looks like the desserts flanking the diaper cake are floating in, well, space.
The red and white spaceship on the backdrop is a cute touch, and it lends an unexpected pop of complimentary color.
Be sure to check out The Sweetest Occasion for more yummy pics, and come back later today for a second post with other kid-centric dessert tables.
