Try an all-candy sweets table or surround a three tiered cake masterpiece with an assortment of pastries, mini desserts, chocolates and other sweet items. You can also go full-on-feast and include exotic fruits and decadent cheeses from around the world!

Why not display a chocolate fountain or two accompanied by mounds of marshmallows, strawberries, nougat and glace fruit to dip into the dark, milk or white melted chocolate?

Decorate in theme or colour co-ordinate your dessert table to add to the overall décor of your event. Creating labels for the dessert items is both practical and decorative. You can create a dessert table for any function, whether it be a birthday party or a wedding. Your dessert table will be a talking point of the event!

Use a variety of ceramic platters, bread boards, silver trays, cake stands, glass jars, vases and an assortment of dishes to display your treats. Playing with different height levels also creates interest. Incorporate unusual items in your display, such china from a vintage tea set, or place sweets on the shelves of an antique bookself.

You can also bring in different textures with the fabrics you use to dress your table. Bring in candles, floating tealights and floral arrangements.

Make your dessert feast uniquely yours!
