Cheescake At Your Wedding? Cheesy or Not?


Have you considered serving cheesecake at your wedding? These cheesy cakes are an interesting option to the usual pound cake with raspberry filling.  You can make your own cheesecake to serve at your wedding by choosing attractive wheels of cheese that vary in size and stacking them.


Use a cake stand or a round wooden cutting board (consider having the board have your initial and wedding date on the side, it's a nice keepsake).  Add some fruit to decorate the cheese wheels.


Decorate you cheese wheel with fruit and greenery as seen above.  Serve with some gourmet crackers and fruit for dessert.  Makes a nice change from all those overly sweet confections you usually get served at weddings.

Bars, Bars, Bars-A Churro Bar?

Weddings these days seem to be made up of bars.  Mashed potato bars, martini bars, stinky cheese bars, on and on and on.  Here's one I hadn't heard of before, a churro bar! Yum!  What are churros?  Unique desserts that you can roll in cinnamon sugar, Oreo bits, or nutmeg.  These Mexican delights will set your wedding apart from the ho-hum everyday cookie cutter weddings.  This idea and photos courtesy of A Subtle Revelry.  They suggest purchasing the churros ready made from a warehouse store like Costco.  The ones they bought were preformed but uncooked.
Set up your bar as seen above.  Lots of toppings for your guests to choose from and enjoy!
Or some dips for your guest to try out--Chocolate, strawberry, etc.
This idea is perfect for a wedding held at the beginning of May and could reflect Cinco de Mayo.  Or it could just reflect the bride and grooms enjoyment of international foods.  Your choice!
