Bridal Shower Brunch - Dessert Ideas??
I am having a bridal shower brunch this weekend and I don't know if I should do a dessert and if so what should I have, any thoughts or suggestions?
Re: Bridal Shower Brunch - Dessert Ideas??
I have 20 people coming, including 4 children. I am planning to buy something as I am not Betty Crocker.
My vote would be for for this: http://goodthingscatered.blogspot.com/2008/03/strawberry-genoise-cake.html
A good bakery should be able to make that for you. They may not know it by that name though, so you basically want to ask for white cake with strawberries and whipped cream frosting and filling. Adding peaches is a nice touch too.
I got that for my husband's graduation party and even though people were already stuffed, they had gone back for seconds on that cake.
I would also serve fruit salad.
If that's too fruit heavy, then maybe do chocolate cupcakes and fruit salad.
Oh yeah, trifle is a great suggestion. I love the one with cake, pudding, whipped cream and toffee bits. Mmmm.
If you do the trifle route I'd also suggest some little chocolatey bite- a small candy or even just a bowl of hershey's kisses. I like a little chocolate bite.
I would consider assorted muffins, danishes, pastries, coffee cake, etc. as "dessert" at a brunch shower.
HTH.
We had petit fours at my baby shower brunch last summer. I thought they were perfect!
These are so cute. (scroll down) We ordered them from this bakery.
