We’re Obsessed With These Pink Wedding Desserts

From Chocolate Pi in Tampa, the Big Guava is vanilla bean cake, guava jelly with cream cheese icing. “The pink Guava cake fondly refers to Tampa’s nickname, it is a customer favorite, and has guava jam and cream cheese icing with my signature vanilla bean cake,” says Owner And Pastry Chef Kim Yelvington of Chocolate Pi. “My favorite color is pink. It’s my walls in my shop, it’s the color of many of my desserts. I find pink to be calming, beautiful, and sweet.  All traits my desserts seem to have!” she says.

From Fine & Dandy in Jackson, MS, the Strawberry sportshake adult milkshake has strawberry jam, strawberry liqueur, white chocolate ganache, sea salt, angel food cake macerated strawberries and candied lime zest, and it’s as delicious as it is pretty!

In honor of PRIDE and MGM Resorts’ sponsored album, Universal Love ,which reimagines six iconic wedding songs by changing the pronouns to be more inclusive of LGBTQ relationships, Backstage Deli  at Luxor debuted the Universal Bundt Cake. The multi-colored treat is comprised of a vanilla funfetti cake decorated with rainbow icing, glitter and a sprinkle-topped marshmallow pop. “In the celebration of PRIDE month, the Luxor pastry team created the Universal Bundt Cake inspired by the UNIVERSAL LOVE album sponsored by MGM Resorts International. The colorful treat is our way of showing support for the LGBTQ community,” says Justin Fredrickson, Luxor’s Executive Chef.

Strawberry Vacherin

From Coquette in New Orleans, the Strawberry Vacherin with Strawberry Sorbet, Mint-Basil Syrup and Szechuan Pepper Pavlova, made by Pastry Chef James Kubie. This elegant meringue-based dessert is soft and light and perfectly balanced.  “Every year starting on New Years Eve we put on a strawberries and cream dessert because Lousiana is known for its strawberries, especially those grown in Ponchatoula, because the flavor is really intense. One thing very unique about Louisiana is that our strawberry season starts months before anyone else, so we harvest them in winter and get to use them straight out of the gate. So every year we are looking for ways to highlight these beautiful strawberries, experimenting with ingredients and flavors that will really amplify the taste of the strawberries. This year we made that happen with the Strawberry Vacherin dessert, as the lemon, mint-basil and sezhuan pepper all come together to really make the strawberry flavor pop!” says Coquette’s Pastry Chef James Kubie.

Imperial Cake

Chef Nathaniel Reid of Nathaniel Reid Bakery in St. Louis has created a pretty epic cake. You may not think of the middle of Missouri as home to one of the top pastry chefs in the country, but Chef Reid is a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu, Paris and has been received national accolades such as one of Dessert Professional Magazine’s Top 10 Pastry Chefs in America to Pastry Chef of the Year at the U.S. Pastry Competition.  Chef Reid is known for his cakes like this Impérial Cake with rosé champagne mousse, pineapple-lychee compote and tender almond cake…which also happens to be the perfect shade of pink!

Millennial Pink Shake

Vivoli il Gelato, a family run gelato shop from Florence located in Disney Springs in Orlando, Florida focuses on the hand-crafted goodness of using fresh and seasonal ingredients offers a Millennial Pink Shake. It consists of a blend of strawberry sorbet and authentic Italian banana flavored gelato inside of a white chocolate dipped waffle cone. A drizzle of strawberry sauce, whipped cream, pink sprinkles, strawberry crispearls, and a fresh strawberry garnish top off this decadent and Instagram-worthy dessert.

 SweetBeet Latte 

Chicago’s Werewolf Coffee Bar offers the Sweetbeet Latte, made with pure vanilla bean, pink peppercorn and beets, topped with rose petals and edible glitter. “I love everything pink, taking cue from Elle Woods,” says Lindsey Reason, creator of the Sweetbeet Latte and GM of Werewolf Coffee Bar. “I thought, why not throw all things pink and delicious into a cup with your morning coffee? Beets, pink peppercorn, and roses all blend beautifully together to create a perfectly balanced and floral latte. Plus, add a little glitter on top and you can feel like Molly Ringwald first thing in the morning!”
