Dessert table ideas for weddings, baby showers and corporate parties

A dessert table works best when it has one hero item and a supporting cast. The hero might be a small tiered cake, a stacked cupcake tower or a giant cookie with a message. Around it, add treats guests can pick up easily.

For weddings, match the colours to your flowers or stationery. For baby showers, soft pastels and mini cupcakes work beautifully. For corporate events, branded colours and clean packaging feel polished.

Height matters. Use cake stands, crates or boxes to create levels, and place the tallest item at the back. Label each treat so guests know what they are choosing.
