Creative Macarons {Great Find}
How cute are these macarons? When we were in Beverly Hills on our Williams-Sonoma Sweet Designs stop, we were greeted with the cutest macaron package {which intentionally matched my dress, by the way} from one of our supporters, Katie of Le Pop Shop. We checked out Katie’s blog and found great macaron designs. We fell in love with the donut macarons above, but some other cute designs are her balloon, ice cream cone, and watermelon…

Amy Atlas Moment: Tea for Two
This Amy Atlas Moment from Seri from Little Miss Party Planner was created for her sister’s bridal shower. Seri made a “Tea for Two” theme using a pastel color palette for a soft and feminine feel. Sweet treats on the dessert table included tea bag cookies {so clever!}, macaroons, meringue, mini cupcakes, and a two-tiered ruffled cake. Family heirlooms like vintage tea cups and teapots made the shower even more meaningful. Teacups were re-purposed as…

Laduree recently opened in New York City. There are always lines out the door and if you have ever eaten one of their tasty treats, you would understand why. This Laduree-inspired photo shoot was sent to us by Azar from Principal Planner. To pay homage to the mecca of macarons, they tied in elements of the luxury brand by bringing in look-alike cookies, pastries, and of course, macarons. We love the gilded frames against the…

Willy Wonka Inspired Guest Dessert Feature
We fell in love with this post the minute that we saw it. Maybe it was the color palette, the creative use of the cabinet and scrabble pieces, the cake, or the combination of all three. Either way, we felt like we won the golden ticket when this popped up in our inbox. Vesna from My Little Jedi created this dessert table for her son’s 2nd birthday party. The desserts complemented the color palette of…

Leoni’s daughter loves Paris (especially the Eiffel Tower) and begged her for a Paris theme. To make the party stand out, she gave it a modern twist with a red and blue striped theme. Most of the elements of the party were handmade and

A Little Birdie Guest Dessert Feature
Madeleine Kojakian from MaddyK Events sent us this beautiful feature of a baby boy’s baptism that she created last year. This table truly makes me wish Spring was here, especially on this gloomy and cold day in New York City. The colors are so vibrant and complement each other well.
