Ready to throw an unforgettable wedding shower for your bestie? Well, move over the petit fours and cupcakes. It’s time to switch things up. Instead of serving the same ole’ wedding shower fare, try out these four new sweet treat ideas:
Pie assortment
Bring on the pies. Order mini or full sizes of apple, cherry, key lime, chocolate, or strawberry rhubarb from local favorites like the Gingham Daisy Pie Company in northwest Arkansas or Mickey’s Cakes & Sweets in Little Rock.
Cinnamon rolls
Pass out warm cinnamon rolls on trays with mimosas for a brunch-themed wedding shower or simply serve as-is. We highly recommend the Old Mill Bread’s jumbo cinnamon rolls or Cinnabon’s classic “Minibons.” Honestly, you can’t go wrong with either.
Ice cream bar
Set up a self-serve ice cream bar and don’t hold back on the toppings! Provide your guests with whipped cream, M&Ms, Magic Shell, strawberries, Reese’s and more. Or, if you’re going healthy, try out a sorbet bar with fruity options from James at the Mill or TCBY.
Cookies to go
This may be our favorite idea yet. Create cute goodie bags with custom stickers with the bride and groom’s names and wedding hashtag and encourage guests to fill them with their favorite cookies. Offer classic chocolate chip, sugar, peanut butter or oatmeal raisin from Tracy’s Cakes, Chick-fil-A, American Pie Pizza or others. You can even step it up a notch and get them monogrammed.
