Not sure you’re a four-tier cake kind of girl? Don’t fret. There are plenty of other delicious dessert options available, and if these real weddings are any indication the trend is towards homemade treats and bite-size creations. From cinnamon buns covered in icing (see above) to adorable miniature cheesecakes, we present 10 of our favourite wedding dessert ideas.
The hottest dessert table trend for 2012 is as beautiful as it is simple. We’re talking gradient-iced cupcakes. These stunning sweets draw upon a specific colour family then the icing in mixed in varying shades to create a cascade of colour.

To make the most of the gradient shading line differing cupcakes up in rows on your dessert table or group similar shades and create tiers of colour that fade from dark to light.

Their work was even featured on Amy Atlas’ site–now that’s saying something. To show off their exquisite work, here’s a recent table set-up that they created for a bridal tea party. Everything was personalized by incorporating family heirloom silver for serving. LOVE it!

This is one of the best Italian-inspired dessert tables I’ve seen. Everything from the colours to the patterns to the prints just screams Italy.
