DNT Favorites: Desserts!

Everyone knows that cake tasting is one of the most enjoyable parts of wedding planning. After all, it’s the only task that the groom actually offers to help with (just kidding)! But these days, traditional cakes are taking the backseat to more creative options. Dessert tables filled with anything from mini cupcakes to parfait shot glasses to French macaroons are a way to let your personality and taste shine through…

Not a huge cake fan? Want to try something different? If you’re one of these people, have no fear; DNT’s favorite wedding desserts are here!

Deconstructed Cupcake in a Cup: Two words—YES PLEASE! While cupcakes may be played out, this dessert is sure to stand out on special day. Layers of cupcake, frosting, and ganache fill a wine glass, or any see through container for that matter.

Mix it up: The bride and groom choose their favorite desserts—whether that is mousse, brownies, candy, or lemon bars—and create an elegant dessert table that will have a little something for everyone.
