A Summer of Weddings

We had the privilege of creating cakes for some very special couples this summer. Each and everyone of them represented the couples in very unique ways.

Katie and Joe love the outdoors so, their venue was perfect for them. The College Club Boathouse on Lake Union. They wanted a variety of flavors for their guests to choose from, so they went with a cupcake tower with cake flavors of Red Velvet, Hummingbird, Chocolate Peanut butter, German Chocolate and Coconut.

For Skylar and Jaren's backyard wedding they went with a Rustic buttercream cake with our Hummingbird, Pina Colada and Lemon Blueberry flavors.  Along with the wedding cake we also created a dessert table display that had Mini Cupcakes, Leaf Sugar Cookies, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Oat Bars and our Mason Jar Fruit Crisps in Peach, Apple and Triple berry. 

The cake table for Antoinette and Ryan's wedding was atop an antique dresser complete with vintage bridal ware and pictures of the bride and groom. 

Vintage Inspired Dessert Table

I had so much fun dreaming up this lavender dessert table inspired by some of my favorite milk glass vintage pieces.  The ruffled milk glass cake stand, has been in my family for as long as I can remember.  It always came out to hold the cake for family birthday parties.  Over the years, I've collected a few pieces of my own. For this shoot, I just decided to keep the colors very simplistic, and just added some hints of lavender.

For the desserts, we had vanilla mini cupcakes, mini peach crisps, salted caramel and chocolate oatmeal bars, sandwich cookies and chocolate vanilla cake with blueberry buttercream filling.  

I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did!  For dessert table inquiries, email us at delicatelysweet@gmail.com

Tea Time!

I hosted a Garden Tea Party for my girlfriends this past weekend.  All went perfectly except for the weather... I had a vision to be outside under white tents surrounded by the beauty blooming in my yard right now but, instead we had Seattle monsoons all weekend long...  We had a great time despite the downpour. :)

It was so much fun to treat my friends to a delicious High Tea.  The menu included Orange Citrus Scones with Devonshire Cream, Cucumber and Herb cream cheese tea sandwiches, Cream filled Strawberries, and Chocolate Mousse.  I can't wait to do this again 'just because'! :)

Vintage Fair Party

Who doesn't love a fun party and theme?! These two did it up well for their little one's birthdays with a Vintage Fair and Carnival theme.  I had the privilege of making a variety of sweets for these two parties.  Sweets included were; Root beer Float, Salted Caramel Churro, Pink Lemonade, Snow Cone and Funnel Cake... ALL cupcake flavors!  ... and a SIX layer Rainbow cake.  I absolutely loved trying out these new flavor combinations! :)
