"Wedding Cake Wars" Premiere Party Decor

For a premiere party revolving around cake, there is no better way to get guests excited than to ply them with irresistible sugary snacks. Turn your kitchen into a professional bakery with sweet treats piled high on platters and cake stands.

Creating A Bakery

• Gather as many platters, cake stands and tiered dessert trays as you can. These are the basis for recreating a cozy in-home bakery for the premiere party.

• On the premiere party invitation (or via email), ask each guest to RSVP with their favorite sweet treat that they plan to bring to the party, as well as the recipe for the item. Make it clear that there should be enough servings for everyone to have a taste.

• Print out small bakery cards on thick card stock that describe each cake, cupcake and cookie as well as who brought it for the premiere party.

• Once guests arrive, transfer their baked good to one of your cake stands and place the bakery card in front so everyone knows what they are digging into and who whipped up each masterpiece.

• Accent the bakery table with small votives, cute cocktail napkins and a stack of small plates. Voila! Instant bakery, in the comfort of your home.
