Easter

This year our interpretation of Easter had a twist. We decided that doing the tradition pastel colors and bunny images was something we wanted to stay away from since it is a bit tired. Cecilia's vision of the monarch butterfly made this table truly special and unique. The color scheme, although not traditional still evoked the spring feeling we were trying to achieve.

Valentines Day





Outdoor fall Brunch Wedding

 
The Treat Table was thrilled to do this Fall outdoor wedding.  The client had a beautiful large backyard. The custom designed chocolate cake had a raspberry filling and decadent layers of chocolate ganache. We also made pumpkin pecan macarons, Red Velvet cake shots, carrot cake shots, kahlua brownies (at the request of the groom) and cake pops.  The big hit was the mimosa shots! Visually, they added a pop of color to the table.  The bride wanted fall colors, while knowing that the groom is a Florida State Seminole, the color scheme fit perfectly with their personalities!

Disco themed 40th Birthday





This disco party was so much fun.  When the client mentioned she was having a disco themed party, the idea of Studio 54 was burned in our brains.  The Treat Table had all the design elements of disco: the signature mirrorball, the square colored plates to mimic a lighted disco floor, and of course glitter glitter glitter!

Charlie and the Chocolate factory






This was for Charlie's 4th Birthday Party. IT was almost too obvious to do Charlie and the Chocolate factory... but we had to do it.  We based it more on Tim Burtons version than the original, but the colors were so dreamy it was so much fun to put together.  The chocolate cake pops lasted about 2.2 seconds, but the cake was even more delectable.

Halloween Cocktail Party




This was SOO much fun. The client specifically asked NOT to have a cake for her annual Halloween party. We started with macarons in different colors/flavors: purple/chocolate, yellow/dulce de leche, orange/pumpkin pecan.  We also had red velvet cake shots, carrot cake shots, chocolate mousse shots, kahlua brownies (note the repetition we were being very resourceful), cake pops, coffee mini cupcakes, and caramel corn cones.

The layout was meant to mimic a large moon with shadow houses, branchy trees and windows, all underlit by votive candlight.  The effect was truly awesome and the camera flash doesn't do it justice. The window detail is also reflected in the banner

Stella and DotTrunk Show Christmas Display





The Treat Table was asked to do a table for a Stella and Dot trunk show during Christmas time in pompano beach. We used the color scheme for the company and punched it up a notch with peacock color.  The result was such a beautiful table that most of those attending the show thought that it was for display or sale...

The Hungry Caterpillar



This was done for a one year old birthday party.  The birthday boy's favorite book is The Hungry Caterpillar.

Carousel 5 year Old girl party





This party was for a 5 year old girl that wanted a party at a local city park that had a carousel.  This was such a fun theme! we wanted to use a color scheme that was bright, but the cake would really stand out. which is why the background was white.  This cake took over 20 hours of labor!! and so well worth it. it was also absolutely delicious!  There are always challenges with outdoor parties such as wind (again!).  In the end, the birthday girl was happy and the guests were happy! and stuffed!

Polka Dot first Birthday





This polka Dot Theme party was a simple small family gathering for a first birthday.  it was done with a small smash cake for the birthday boy instead of the larger fondant cake. there were plenty of other treats for the family to enjoy.  I love this because we were able to keep it a little healthier with the veggie cups and fruit skewers.
but i totally loved the alphabet gummies i found...
