OH HOW I DIG DESSERT BARS!!

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

Recently, our caterer suggested serving Earth Cafe mini cheesecakes as the dessert for our reception. Believe it or not, I hadn’t even thought of it!! Our desserts are similar to ice-cream cakes, in that they need to be refrigerated to keep their shape over long periods of time (they’re vegan, raw, & I hadn’t thought of them as wedding desserts). Also, I’ve fallen in love with so many traditional wedding cakes I’ve seen & sort of figured them an obligatory part of wedding decor. Well, move over traditional! What about the absolutely irresistible concept of having a dessert bar!? Now that I’ve been turned on to this theme, I may have to adopt a new obsession! I think mini-Earth Cafe cheesecakes, surrounded by other colorful vegan treats will be hot like wow, enough to make even the most SKEPTICAL carnivore sing. Whaddya think!?:

I need your help, and I’m willing to bribe you with (healthy) sweets to get it!! A week later from the “today’s the day” blog entry I’m still vascillating & consternating over wedding locales (now thinking TWO!) Trying to be as earth-friendy as possible with the invitations, flowers, decor, & all things in between has proven a little more costly than I’d hoped. So, I’m a little green stumped. Some of you have AMAZING creative DIY (do it yourself) genuis, so I’m calling upon you to help ease my wedding-planning plight! Please post your best eco-friendly wedding ideas. Your idea can be anything, big or small. (Though don’t be afraid to be big & grandios, or short & to-the-point).
