Girls Night Out Dessert Table



What says 'Girls Night Out' more than sparkly pink martinis and zebra print?

Girls Night Out is a large event in the Seattle area, and the tickets sell out weeks in advance.  When we were asked to be a part of it, we were so excited!


These individual cakes were a huge hit, especially the banana cake with Jack Daniels cream cheese filling and the carrot cake with orange ginger cream cheese filling.



All of our Couture Confectioneries are handmade to tailor to your event.


There were so many fun and girly vendors who were there, tons of fabulous women, and champagne flowing all evening.  Who could ask for more?

We are so thankful that we were invited to participate in such an amazing event!

To order Couture Confectioneries for your next party or girly gathering, please email allyson@girlygatherings.com

Littlest Pet Shop Birthday Cake & Goodies!



Little Miss Lindsey turned 8 years old this afternoon! 

Since her mom and I are friends, I offered to make Lindsey any kind of cake she wanted for her birthday, and as you can tell... she chose Littlest Pet Shop as her theme.

Her mother had decided against traditional "goodie bags" so I made 20 little kids 20 cupcakes and 20 cookies to take home with them!





I bought some 24 ounce cups and lids and used those as the to-go containers for the cupcakes.  Believe it or not, this is THE BEST WAY to take a cupcake to go.  There's a little lip in the bottom of the lid that keeps the cupcake from knocking around.


Yeah.... these didn't make it all the way home.  The kids ate them immediately.

Girls Night Out Event



We were invited to show off our goodies at one of the largest events in our area, "Girls Night Out".  650 tickets were available and they SOLD OUT  prior the event.

We've added dessert tables as one of the things we offer and here's our very first one. 

Since we were there to promote our business, we designed this table around our company logo. 

Everything on this table is homemade, and although we had reserves, we could barely keep it stocked, things were selling left and right! 














Some of things on the table were:

 white cupcakes with lemon filling
 chocolate cupcakes with raspberry filling
 cake bites - chocolate cake mixed with cream cheese and drizzled with pink chocolate
Parisian macarons with white chocolate ganache filling
wedding cake with a damask print
cookies handmade with our company logo iced on them
homemade marshmallow
carrot cake with orange ginger cream cheese filling
banana cake with Jack Daniels cream cheese filling
red velvet cake with white chocolate cream cheese filling

The event director emailed me this morning and had this to say (!!)

"You guys were a huge hit last night. Everyone was talking about you. I took the banana cake back to my office and had to share it with 5 people. It was amazing! Not only did it look good it tasted incredible. Seriously one of the best cakes I have tasted. Way to go."

We had an absolute fabulous time and the entire event was a great success!

Would it be weird if I asked for an invitation to this party?

Cupcakes For a Wedding Rehearsal Dinner


These were ordered for a rehearsal dinner held in a banquet room at a restaurant.   The restaurant wanted to charge $10 a head for dessert.  For 50 people.  Clearly, I am in the wrong business!

The happy couple has chosen peacock colors for their wedding.  Without making the cupcake look like a peacock, I think these turned out pretty good.  :)
