Help! My teeth are about to fall out of my head! I'm looking at a list of desserts we would love to serve at the wedding for our dessert table and I want to serve them all. But I can't. It would be a sweets overload. So I need to pare down my list and I'm having trouble deciding what to axe. Keep in mind that we do plan on serving a wedding cake and the wedding will be small. But everything just looks so good!!!! I'm thinking we either do the café au lait or eggnog and if we did the beignet station that would probably be the only accompaniment to the cake. So I'm enlisting your opinions- what are your favorites?
