When it comes to weddings, tradition and innovation often dance together to create memorable celebrations. One such trend that has been gaining momentum in recent years is the concept of a wedding sweets table, which offers a fun alternative to the traditional wedding cake. This delightful trend not only showcases a diverse array of delectable treats but also adds a unique touch of personalization and style to the wedding festivities.
“Mini pastries and small bites are common at every other kind of social gathering you can think of, so I thought – why not weddings!” says Sophie Evanoff, owner and operator of Vanille Patisserie. Vanille Patisserie has long been a community staple for French pastries and wedding cakes alike. Evanoff noticed more couples showing interest in small cutting cakes for their reception, but with supplementary sweets tables to feed the whole guest list. “You get the ritual of the cake cutting while also offering much more variety to guests,” she says. “Sometimes cake can feel like a really formal moment […] but the sweets table allows guests to try more things at their leisure while they enjoy the party!”
