Cake & sweets

Each of these carries its own questions to decide, what to ask candidates, and when couples usually book — ready to drop into a connected plan.

• Cake & desserts

  Makes the cake and desserts. Build the tiers or dessert table and the plan sizes servings to your guest count and puts the cut on the timeline your caterer reads.

• Dessert table

  A dessert bar or table — cookies, macarons, donuts, pies, brownies, a candy bar — alongside the cake or instead of one.

• Ice cream cart

  Scoops or pours frozen dessert from a staffed cart or truck — ice cream, gelato, soft serve, sundaes.

• Traditional sweets

  The sweets your tradition brings to a wedding — mithai, baklava, a croquembouche, mochi, koufeta, a cookie tray.
