Mini Dessert Buffet

One of my favorite parts of the wedding was my mini dessert spread. I have a huge sweet tooth (just ask T) and was initially going for a candy buffet, but decided to turn it into a dessert buffet for various reasons (no need to rent more plates as napkins were used, not everyone likes cake/cupcakes, etc.). We had cream puffs, red velvet and vanilla cupcakes, mini caramel apples, peanut butter brownie pops, lemon meringue tartlets, as well as my yummy vanilla/chocolate ganache/strawberry wedding cake (which we simply used for cutting).

Luckily for me, my friend’s sister, Amber, is a pastry chef who agreed to take this project on. For those of you on a budget wanting to do something similar, check out your local bakery or supermarket. For example, I recently bought a platter of mini desserts at Whole Foods at $1/piece. Not bad, especially for Whole Foods!

Here’s how it turned out:
