Wedding Trends : Dessert Tables | Buffalo Indie Weddings


Guest blog post presented by Ilana from Sugar and Type, a design studio with a serious passion for paper!

Hello Buffalo! I’m so excited to be a member of Buffalo Indie Weddings, rep’ping your sister city, Rochester! I started my business after getting my Bachelors of Fine Art from RIT, and it’s been an incredible journey. I’ve had the opportunity to work with some amazing clients, and it’s been so fun to share my own journey planning my own wedding!

When I started thinking about what kind of cake I wanted at my wedding, one thing was clear. I hate fondant. It’s beautiful, traditional, and super elegant, but I am a serious fan of dessert, and it’s definitely not my favorite taste. I love dessert so much, I named my business after it! I take dessert VERY seriously. Brown Sugar and Figs are so beautiful, and watch out cupcakes, donuts are making a comeback. Don’t even get me started on French Macaroons! Having a dessert table is a great option if you’re looking for something a little more unique, or if could never pick your favorite, try having a couple options!

Naked cakes are all the rage right now, and don’t worry if you LOVE frosting as much as I do – they’re jammed packed in between the layers! Make sure to tell your vendor that you love frosting, and they can make the layers thinner so there’s no frosting in every bite!
