This post is all about love…I have been meeting with lots of brides lately, and recently we did some fun bridal showers and a wedding cake with mini desserts too. These first photos are of the wedding. The bride wanted to incorporate lots of color, her love of butterflies, and their gorgeous monogram that they featured on their invitations. This is the design we came up with!
The bride and groom also wanted to treat their guests to an assortment of mini desserts and wanted them all plated on one delicious table spread. The mini desserts included banana cream pies, coconut cream pies, pumpkin caramel gingersnap cheesecakes, carrot cake and red velvet cake lollipops, and lavender lemon bars.
These last photos are from the two bridal showers. The first shower had the color scheme of yellow, teal, and white. They ordered a variety of cupcakes and 75 bride and groom silhouette cookies. Sadly, I didn't take any pictures of the cookies, but you can check out my previous post on them.
This final cake was made to match the shower invitations, which had a cute, modern look to it. The cake was chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and espresso, kahlua cream cheese frosting.
Thanks for taking a look at all the photos!

I love that cake! I love that the monogram and butterflies were both incorporated. The mini desserts sound fabulous, I’d be all over the banana cream pies – my favorite!
The cupcakes are too cute for words and the last cake sounds absolutely divine! I bet it was delicious! Thanks for sharing!
I have a question for you 
For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to offer to make a friends wedding cake… (but that’s a whole other story) and I’m just hoping that it would be okay to have it totally made on Friday even though the wedding isn’t until Saturday evening. Will it still be “fresh”???
Probably should mention it’s going to have buttercream and fondant…
CarlyinVA - You can make some of the mini desserts in advance just check on the recipe to see the refrigeration guidelines.
Toni - The cake should definitely be fine if you do it on Friday. One extra step you can do to add moisture is to brush your cake layers with “simple syrup”. Just google it and you can get all the details!

these are really cute - and I am actually hoping to do this myself - can you tell me (*or all of us,) are you able to make any of these mini treats in advance?
