In the past I have put together a fair few DIY tutorials for Whimsical Wonderland Weddings, I even crafted for my own wedding. In my spare time I love to get creative, whether it be with my children as it so often is these days, or with my crochet hook, styling my home and indulging in my love of flowers.<\/p>\n<p>So when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/?utm_source=one%20roof%20social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=april%202018&amp;utm_content=whimsicalwonderlandweddings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hobbycraft<\/a> got in touch to see if I wanted to collaborate I was so excited to express my love of creating and crafting, any excuse hey! I loving nothing more than browsing their aisles for crafty items and getting inspired by their offerings. It&#8217;s always a successful shopping outing as they have everything you can think of.<\/p>\n<h2>DIY Wedding Dessert Table<\/h2>\n<p>I decided to create a DIY dessert table set up. It&#8217;s not so much a trend to have a cake or dessert table at weddings any longer, but more a must have element. I mean who doesn&#8217;t love cake? And dessert tables can also double up as pudding, which can certainly be helpful on the budget side of things.<\/p>\n<p>I am hearing of more and more couples, especially you lovely readers, either making your own bakes or asking loved ones to bring along a treat for a cake table. So I thought a dessert table DIY tutorial would hopefully help you to plan out your tasty treats and ensure they look totally awesome too!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229435\" src=\"https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2018\/04\/DIY-Wedding-Dessert-Table-Tutorial-Cake_0022.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Wedding Dessert Table Tutorial Cake\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2018\/04\/DIY-Wedding-Dessert-Table-Tutorial-Cake_0022.jpg 750w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2018\/04\/DIY-Wedding-Dessert-Table-Tutorial-Cake_0022-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2018\/04\/DIY-Wedding-Dessert-Table-Tutorial-Cake_0022-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/whimsical-cdn.wedissimo.com\/2018\/04\/DIY-Wedding-Dessert-Table-Tutorial-Cake_0022-720x480.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>What Do You Need<\/h2>\n<p>Here is exactly what you need to recreate the dessert table;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A totally cool table. Ask your venue, source furniture from your home or scout local car boots for bargain finds. We used a vintage pine dresser we have in our living room.<\/li>\n<li>An array of cakes and bakes. I baked the main naked cake myself, which was also gluten free, using the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wilton Easy Layers Round Set of 4 Cake Tins<\/a>. They were so easy to use, trust me, I have made layer cakes before, and these tins were a breeze. I simply doubled my recipe and then got them all in the oven at the same time. The sponges were all even and uniform as a result and it saved <em>so<\/em> much baking time.<\/li>\n<li>A backdrop. For the backdrop I used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/extra-large-multi_coloured-confetti-balloons-3-pack\/630920-1003?utm_source=one%20roof%20social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=april%202018&amp;utm_content=whimsicalwonderlandweddings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">3 Extra Large Multi-Coloured Confetti Balloons<\/a>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/helium-balloon-canister\/603802-1000?utm_source=one%20roof%20social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=april%202018&amp;utm_content=whimsicalwonderlandweddings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Helium Balloon Canister<\/a> to inflate them, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/pink-foil-balloon-weight\/616994-1000?utm_source=one%20roof%20social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=april%202018&amp;utm_content=whimsicalwonderlandweddings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pink Foil Balloon Weights<\/a> to ensure they didn&#8217;t float away and I hand made the tassels with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hobbycraft.co.uk\/raspberry-and-pink-tissue-paper-set-65-x-50-cm-10-pack\/607272-1001?utm_source=one%20roof%20social&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=april%202018&amp;utm_content=whimsicalwonderlandweddings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Raspberry and Pink Tissue Paper Set<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Cake stands.

In fact, I&#8217;d quite like them hanging around my home for a good while yet. I am going to be whipping these up for future celebrations that&#8217;s for sure.
