Dessert Table: Peppermint Party

Jessie of Shop Sweet Lulu created this sweet little gingerbread house party for her little ones and included a cocoa bar in the festivities! Pops of red and subdued grey look great in the mostly white room. Whoopie pies, meringues, and marshmallows round out the sweet selection.

A Handmade Holiday with the Younges

It doesn't feel like it outside, but it's the holiday season. I baked up some pretty bundt cakes and added some great DIY touches to our decor this Christmas with easy projects that kiddo helped me make to create a Handmade Holiday. We photographed it all for Confetti Pop, so go on over and check it out. We'll be sharing tutorials and DIYs throughout the week to help you recreate the look.

But here on Sweet Tooth, we're all about the yummy stuff, so I figured I'd focus on seasonal bundts. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. A fabulous bundt pan turns your boxed cake mix into something really spectacular. We shot this a couple of weeks ago, but don't worry, those little bundts didn't go to waste. My family and I chowed down on those pretty cakes for Thanksgiving.

Who doesn't love a pile of sweets? She Cooks, She Gardens featured these chocolate banana bundts.

Use a pretty pan as a serving dish. Dine and Dash featured this great PB&J bunt.

Have you started decorating, yet? What's your theme or color palette this year?

Dessert Table: Christmas Cookie Swap

I'm already giving some serious consideration to this year's Christmas decor, and this Liebersbotschaft cookie swap dessert table is even more motivation for me to get the ball rolling. An edible cookie garland, cocoa stir spoons, and gingerbread men are welcome additions to this seasonal sweets setup.

Sweet Idea: Red, White, and Mmmm!

I love these patriotic favor ideas just in time for the 4th of July. You can fill these rocket shaped DIY containers with any candy, or even mini toys. And, it couldn't be easier to create a sweet treat than these licorice and gum ball falls.

rocket favors, flag favors

Dessert Table: Perfectly Pretty

It's been a while since I've featured a dessert table that showcases the dresser trend, but this one from Jenna Rae Cakes is the perfect addition to the group. With a heavy emphasis on balloons, the fringe cake pop flags and golden streamers are simple, but pretty accents.

Dessert Table: All-White Wonder

An all-white dessert table works for every season. In Summer, it seems fresh and airy. In Winter, it feels icy and cool. This collection of simple cakes on simple stands would work well for almost any group gathering at any time of year. This Style Me Pretty spread as accents of soft peach, but you could use lilac, icy blue, or yellow to change the feel of the design.

Dessert Table: Tea-licious! Pt II

I shared a few lovely pics of this all-white dessert/dining table with you earlier, and I'm back with even more images of this Hello Naomi, Bo Peep Productions, Natalie Hunfalvay collaboration via Somewhere Splendid. I think it's so clever to combine the dessert table and dining table in one. It really creates a community dining experience of sharing and passing plates. What a great idea for a bridal shower.

Doesn't this unstructured display make a dessert table seem attainable for any baker? A few mismatched cake stands and tea cups look like a cohesive display when unified by the all-white color palette.

Dessert Table: Tea-licious!

This all-white dessert table incorporates food, drink, and favors. This bridal shower tea party featured sweets by Hello Naomi and styling by Bo Peep Productions. When I saw these lovely Natalie Hunfalvay pics on 100 Layer Cake, I fell for the pristine simplicity of the event.

One simple cake, lots of macarons, and loose tea. Who knew those elements could make such a complete, pretty design?

I'll be back later with even more pics from this lovely design.

Dessert Table: White Out!

Linda of Call Me Cupcake shared these gorgeous, winter white photos with my friend Maddy of The Inspired Bride, and I just had to share them you. Linda played with various shades of white and lots of different textures to add dimension to this monochromatic display.

This inspirational shoot will doubtlessly encourage party hosts, brides, and event planners to go beyond using just tables and dressers for their dessert displays. Linda chose a chair, a side table, and shelves to showcase each white wonder.

This shoot just screams sophistication. The fur rug, lace appliqued cake, and luminous setting all work together to create a fresh take on a Winter Wonderland theme. Have you ever seen all-white done so right?

Be sure to swing by tomorrow. I've got some really fun things in store. See you then!

Set the Table: Individual Sweets

I love this idea! Welcoming guests to the table with single servings of dessert presented in glass domes at each place setting is a fresh alternative. Green Wedding Shoes featured this gorgeous white and gold soiree with subtle hints of pink. Want to customize each treat even more? Use them as place cards by attaching ribboned labels with each guest's name.

Sunday Suppers Cheese Dessert Table

This light, bright cheese dessert table created by Sunday Suppers is a unique twist on the dessert buffet trend. Pairing cheeses and fruits for a dessert course is a great idea for a bride looking for a homespun, earthy vibe.
