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

Tie-Dye Themed Birthday

My niece turned 8 at the beginning of the month, and my sister put on a Tie-Dye themed party for her. Such a fun theme!  In her invitations, she asked for the parents to let her know what size t-shirt their child would need.  When the kids arrived, they got to choose what tie-dye design they wanted and then we helped them add the rubber bands to their shirts.  We called the kids over a couple at a time to start the dyeing while the rest of the kids played in the yard.  When all of them were finished, they were put into a plastic bag with instructions for the parents on how wash them when they got home.  It was such a fun project for the kids and they all turned out so cool!  And of course, we couldn't have a Tie-Dye themed party without a fun Ombre cake (inside and out)!
