The Treat Table goes Back to School

 We were thrilled to do a table for the MECE Marketplace. It was our opportunity to do the "Back to School" theme table we wanted to do.  
Hopefully, you are reading this because you saw us at MECE and wanted to see more of our work, which makes our attendance worthwhile.  We shared a corridor with Lisa (lisanalvenphotography.com) and former GE six sigma (!) small business consultants, Patrick and Brian (seventhelement.com), so Lisa was able to give me a lesson in photography with my new camera (enjoy the pics) and the guys gave us some great insight into our small business.

 Being that this was a Back to School theme (it IS still September) the obvious underlying flavor in the menu was APPLES! Apple spice cake whoopie pies, Apple Pecan Pie, caramel apple cheesecake.  The staples for passersby to taste were the vanilla and chocolate cake pops.  The true hit of the day were the peanut butter and jelly macarons! OMG! If only my children would understand the delicacy behind a macaron! These were truly delicious.  Jeannette's Oreo Chocolate Crunch cake shot completed the "milk and cookies" idea of school time snackery.

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!

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...
