Upscale Disposable Tableware, A Blog

    Holiday Dessert Table

     

    The holidays are here and it’s a great excuse to celebrate with a festive dessert table!  For this dessert table I used the tiny compostable caterware from Fineline Settings’ new SelfEco line.  For some reason, it just feels special to have dessert served in tiny individual portions.  Not only do they look elegant, they are also eco-friendly, zero-waste, plant-based, and compostable.  So, we can feel better about serving each guest five mini dessert offerings in individual containers.  Well, at least when it comes to satisfying their sweet tooth and saving the planet. 

     

    I wanted the dessert table to have a wintery theme to go along with the holidays during this season.  To set the stage, I hung white paper snowflake fans and a snowflake garland for an easy backdrop.  Then, I added a frosty green  garland, a lantern, some pillar candles, and tinsel to add some holiday sparkle.  

    Starting on the left, I used the 2 piece champagne flutes to serve cranberry punch.  To make them more festive, I added a pink sugar rim, a few raspberries and mint sprigs.  

    Beside the punch, I used the 4” square cocktail plates to serve slices of key lime pie and fresh strawberries.  I like how the plates have a convenient opening for a tiny fork.

    I also used these beautiful Asian spoons, which  are great for one or two bites.  They were perfect for serving white chocolate mousse garnished with a raspberry and micro mint.

    On the right of the dessert table, I used a two tiered dessert stand which is also available through Fineline Settings.  I like how it adds height and space for more sweet treats!  On the top tier, I used the 4 oz round bowl for serving a mini cupcake and strawberry macaroon.  I also really like that the bowls have a mini utensil holder.  It’s so convenient and still looks elegant. 

    On the bottom tier, I used the 3 oz mini cubes for individual cheesecake desserts.  I like that they are clear so the guests can see all the delicious layers of the dessert.

    A festive dessert table can make any holiday or celebration special! The idea of serving tiny desserts in small portions is so fun and great for entertaining!  With Fineline Settings’ compostable tiny caterware, you can really get creative with your desserts this year while keeping the earth green.  So, please go ahead and start planning your five course dessert menu and enjoy the holidays!

    MASON JAR MADNESS - Disposable Plastic Drinkware

    I am crazy about disposable drinkware, specifically our new mason jar. I have so many ideas for every holiday, season, event, daytime, nighttime, anytime….IT’S Mason Jar MADNESS!

    First, lets talk specifics it’s a 16 oz jar with 2 different style lids. 2 LIDS!!! One lid is completely closed the other has a wide opening to accommodate any size straw. Then to top it off the closed lid is completely ready for anything custom; custom sticker, custom label, custom logo. Finally, the jar itself is also completely ready for anything custom. 2 Opportunities to make the jar your own.

    Second, it is completely durable. Trust me I have dropped it several times while trying to create my different inventions. No cracking. No denting, no chipping.

    Third, let’s get our creative hat on. Of course the drink list possibilities are endless: Bloody Mary, Margaritas, Old Fashioned, ANY signature cocktail, milkshakes, “shaker” drinks (shake it right in the jar). Now for the crafty creative – how about food or gifts of a recipe? Type or write out the ingredients to your favorite treat on a recipe card; tie it around the jar neck with ribbon or stretchy chord. Or you could fill it with wedding mints and custom print the jar for weddings. Have you thought of using it for all those lil craft “pieces” or maybe use it flower vase for that country touch? Do you have kids at home – want to make a snow-globe – glue a small toy to the inside of the lid fill the jar with sparkles and water…screw the lid back on with toy inside the jar – instant custom snow-globe.

    As we close this mason jar madness – I have included a sneak peek at some ideas for Super Bowl Sideline snacks – Can you guess the team I am featuring in the picture?  😉
