French MacaronsChoose two or three fillings so the color of a shell actually tells guests what’s inside. Mark the flavors beside the tray, label the almond flour, and give the tray its own tongs. Keep cream-filled versions cold and bring them out a few at a time.0
- 2
Lemon Berry Petit FoursChoose small layered cakes coated in a firm glaze so guests can pick one up by the sides. Place each on its own paper cup to protect the glaze from the serving tongs. Set aside a cooler for petit fours made with fruit curd or another filling that needs refrigeration.0
- 3
Mini CupcakesAsk for two-bite cupcakes in paper liners and choose a low swirl of frosting so they fit neatly in the hand. Set out the flavors in separate rows and use a spare tray to replenish the first. Have the caterer hold cream cheese or whipped toppings cold until they’re needed.0
- 4
Mini CannoliAsk the bakery to fill the small crisp shells with sweet ricotta close to serving so they don’t soften. Set the cannoli lengthwise in little paper boats to catch the crumbs. Keep the filled extras refrigerated and have someone bring out a few at a time.0
- 5
Cake PopsStand cake pops upright in a weighted holder or choose wrapped pops that lie flat in a basket. Use a coating that sets firmly and set the display out away from hot windows. Guests can take one by the stick while keeping a free hand.0
- 6
Chocolate-Dipped StrawberriesDip dry strawberries and let the chocolate set before arranging them by the stem in paper cups. Choose firm berries and refrigerate the reserve tray. Put out small batches so the chocolate doesn’t sit long enough in a warm room to soften.0
- 7
Mini Fruit TartsOrder two-bite tartlet shells filled with vanilla pastry cream and topped with berries cut to fit. Set each tart in a liner that guests can lift without squeezing the shell. Have the caterer hold the extra tartlets cold and refill the tray in batches.0
- 8
Monogrammed Sugar CookiesChoose small sugar cookies with firm icing and initials that can be read from the tray. Let the icing set before wrapping each cookie so it won’t smudge. Put them beside the guest book or on the dessert table where guests can pick them up without a plate.0
- 9
Mini CheesecakesChoose muffin-size cheesecakes with a crumb base and serve them chilled in individual liners. Use a small topping that sits flat rather than a loose spoonful of sauce. Carry the spare tray to the refrigerator after setup and refill the display as needed.0
- 10
Wedding Chocolate-Covered Sandwich CookiesUse the firm chocolate shell to make a cookie sturdy enough for an individual favor bag. A white drizzle or a small piped bow tie makes the decoration readable even on a crowded table. Let the coating set before wrapping, and keep the bags out of direct sun.0
