Example of a Dessert Buffet Wedding Reception.
Theme of this event was rustic elegant comfort. The bride and groom were one fun, happy couple and wanted a "party" feel, more than a typical Utah reception.
- Spring sorbet made from fresh Peaches and raspberries, served in chilled 4-1/4" pie tin, garnished with a raspberry, mint leaf, and a heart-shaped cookie tuile.
- Parfaits layered in clear shot glasses with pink guava gelee, freshly-whipped heavy cream, coconut pasty cream, and handmade poundcake. Garnished with a striped pink cookie "straw" and pink chocolate crumbles. Served with mini silver cocktail spoon.
- Smores bar action station with plain, caramel, chocolate, coconut, and strawberry flavored marshmallows, toasted over the "fire", then sandwiched between two chocolate graham crackers.
- Mini 3" triangle fruit tarts containing hand-made key lime pie filling, garnished with fresh blackberries and lime zest.
- House recipe donut holes on a stick, garnished with freshly made orange cream glaze.
- House-made hot scones with whipped honey-butter, strawberry-plum jam and/or sugared cinnamon.
- Beachcomber mocktail containing guava, pineapple, and citrus juices served in 8oz Mason "canning jars" tied with a striped twine bow, and a sour-pink crystal rimmer.
- Cold, frosty 2% milk served in 8oz Mason "canning jars" with stripe twine bow.
When we did this event in March 2012, let me tell you the milk + donuts were a hit! Everyone loved the Smores bar, especially the kids!
