New Year’s Desserts

Introducing New Year’s desserts for your gorgeous white and silver themed New Year’s desserts table…

This easy New Year’s desserts menu can be done with homemade, or purchased desserts. The idea is to keep it simply elegant, so you can enjoy the New Year’s party too! All of these desserts will store well, with exception of the cupcakes. So, either make your New Year’s desserts ahead of time… or buy them already done. You choose.

The New Year’s desserts menu:

* White chocolate cupcakes
* Cake pops
* Meringue tarts with plum glaze
* Snowflake sugar cookie trees
* Vanilla bean marshmallows
* Pomegranate gumdrops (recipe here!)

6 Stunning New Year’s desserts, here’s how to do it…

White chocolate cupcakes:

We picked up our cupcakes on the day of the party. Elegant and simple, with our desserts table set and ready to go, we just placed our desserts on the platters and were ready to party with the guests.

Cake pops:

These classy New Year’s desserts look like snowballs with the sprinkling of coarse sugar. We displayed them in Sheer Elegance Sweet Petites, the new cake pop kit by Confetti Couture. The cake pops were super simple using this cake pop maker, so we created our own. They are bite sized cake balls on a lollipop stick! Dipped in white chocolate, they are deliciously coordinated.

Meringue tarts:

Take the elegance to new heights with these frothy egg whites slow baked to perfection and filled with a sweet and tart fruity glaze.

Snowflake sugar cookies:

We created these beauties ourselves, too. Gorgeous stacks of white snowflakes create pretty snow covered “trees” on our New Year’s desserts table. Sugar cookies freeze well, so you can make them far in advance, and even frost them, too. Just pull them out a couple hours before your New Year’s party and let them thaw unwrapped.

Marshmallows:

The marshmallows are also homemade on our New Year’s desserts table. They are truly, so easy to make. They can be bought this way, too. We used Sweet Stickz, wooden lollipop sticks from Confetti Couture, to display them.

Pomegranate Gumdrops (see the recipe here):

Of course, you could buy these, but we wanted to have perfectly fresh, elegantly flavored pomegranate gumdrops! So, we made these, too. Yes, we are a teensy bit particular about the details on our New Year’s desserts display!
