A Wedding Celebration With All The Perks: Couture Coffee Creations For Contemporary Weddings

February 20, 2017

Whether you’re hosting a cake and coffee celebration or a FANTASTIC fete replete with dessert bar with ALL the trimmings, you’re going to want to brew up some dynamic coffee drinks  (hot and cold); as well as some  creative caffeine infused confections to give your guests lots of mo-joe for getting home safely.

Here are some delicious and decadent favorites

1. Coffee Panna Cotta: These mini delicious Italian cream cakes/ custards infused with coffee and topped with a sweet vanilla flecked caramel (sauce) to balance the “bitterness” of the coffee, offer a rich robust  and silky smooth finish to a fabulous evening.

2. Viennese Coffee Float: This twist on tradition will have you singing the praises of Vienna…as the Italian inspired caffeinated drink awaits you. A steaming brea sweetened with  rum syrup is poured over chocolate hazelnut ice cream. Think you can’t top that? Think again. This decadent intermezzo is topped with cinnamon sprinkled  hazelnut whipped cream and  cocoa dusted coffee marshmallows…and is served in a an insulated glass for a spectacular presentation.

3. Iced Coffee Frappe With Cotton Candy:  This summertime sensation appeals to both the kid and the adult in you. This icy frappe is poured into a tall glass allowing it to separate into layers and is then topped with a dollop of cotton candy for a delicious whimsical twist.

4.Espresso Glazed Donuts and Coffee: Coffee and donuts are “All-American” favorites…but for real coffee aficionados a regular cup of joe may not provide quite enough mojo. Consider serving with espresso glazed donuts perhaps infused with coffee flavor liqueur  for that late evening kick you and your guests are looking for.

5. Coffee Flavored Favors: Last but certainly not least…send guests off with a gift that keeps on giving. From gourmet blends of their favorite brews to coffee truffles, cocoa covered nuts and espresso beans, or espresso fudge brownies are sure to be a latte fun.
