Tonight I am hosting a get-together/party and I got the opportunity to create my first desert table. My favourite colour palette of the moment is brown and green; so simple, yet so elegant, so I decided to prepare a bunch of different treats all adhering to this theme. I also got to mix and match some of my favourite flavours too!
These are some simple sugar cookies (with whole wheat flour) decorated with lime green royal icing and finished with a milk chocolate wafer centre.
Margarita cake: margarita lime cake filled with tequila-lime buttercream, covered in brown fondant and finished with macaron shells and a gum paste anemone. This cake was so much fun to make, but I found myself eating more of the leftovers than I should have...
Brownie cupcakes with lime green vanilla buttercream. I especially love how the colour palette turned out on these!
Although my kitchen is a disaster and every cake pan/spatula/utensil is waiting patiently in the sink to be cleaned, I am really pleased with how everything turned out. Hopefully my guests agree!
