Back in October, I had the pleasure of creating a dessert table for Tori Spelling’s youngest daughter Hattie’s 1st birthday party. Hattie, known as Hattie Cat by her family, is just an absolute doll. Tori chose a Mad Hattie Tea Party theme, with Alice in Wonderland accents.
For Hattie’s dessert table, we decided instead of a separate table for desserts, we’d use the tea party table as our actual dessert table. Tori has an incredible farm table that seats 16, which was perfect for this party. We used mismatched vintage chairs for seating and set gorgeous vintage china teacups at each place setting. The abundance of overflowing desserts made up our centerpiece. I made 5 different cakes, 3 different kinds of mini and regular sized cupcakes, cake lollipops, sugar cookies, brownie bites, rice krispy treats and more. It was a dessert feast! Paper lanterns hung above the table creating the tea party scene from Alice in Wonderland. It was more than perfect. I have to say, this was one of my favorite tables ever!
Happy 1st Birthday Miss Hattie Cat!
Last month I had the opportunity to create a dessert table for Tori Spelling’s chic new kid’s and baby clothing line Little Maven.
Camp Little Maven was created to launch this new brand for JC Penney. It was beyond cute. Little Maven clothes strung across the entire venue from vintage clotheslines, a faux campfire for roasting smores, a fishing pond for the kids to fish, teepees to play in, bugs to discover, crafts to make, and of course lots of dessert to enjoy!
For the dessert table we had a banner, table runner, and mini tent made from Little Maven fabrics. I scoured antique stores and ebay for vintage camping items such as vintage camp stoves, lanterns, enamelware, and even a tin tackle box and picnic basket. Desserts were set atop real tree stumps and were given camp themed names, such as kumbaya krispies and campfire cake pops. We decorated sugar cookies like the 6 main Little Maven fabrics, and topped the table off with a two-shaded pink cake with a mini tent on top. It was such a fun theme, I loved Camp Little Maven!

In October we created a dessert table for an exclusive Seattle wedding event for brides and grooms to visit and meet the industry’s top vendors. This was not your typical wedding show. Event lighting, plenty of food, cocktails, performances and an aerial artist greeting you upside down with a glass of champagne when you walked in the door…well those were just a few of the antics that went on. It was an incredible night and we had an absolute blast participating!
We created this Falling in Love themed dessert table for Ashly and Scott’s fall wedding. The table was filled with caramel apples, cupcakes, mini pies, homestyle cookies, and a rustic buttercream cake. We loved how this table turned out!
Congratulations Ashly and Scott!
Such a sweet dessert table we did for Patrick and Jenn’s romantic pink wedding at Hidden Meadows in Snohomish, WA! Jenn wanted all things pink, and Patrick just smiled and went along with whatever she wanted. Love that!
Congratulations Patrick and Jenn!
Another fun table from June was the Bake Shop dessert table we did for a baby shower in Mercer Island. The couple hosted a sip and see for their close family and friends to meet their new baby girl. The hosts showered their guests with not only sips but lots of sweets as well!
Summer has been so busy, I’m just now getting to blog the fantastic dessert tables I was able to do over the last two months. From wedding tables to baby showers, corporate events to birthday parties, it’s been a very eventful season!
In June I was asked to create a 50th birthday Golf themed dessert table for a very important person at Microsoft. What a fun table this was to put together! We did a green cake with a hole in one at the top, golf ball cookies, cake pops, and cupcakes. The team at Microsoft was incredible to work with. Happy 50th Birthday Brian!
