Showering the Bride with Sweets


My good friends, Nora and Shawn, have been dating for almost a decade now. This month, they are going to Michigan to tie the knot in what I'm sure will be a magical lake-side wedding. Unfortunately, I cannot make it out to the Mid-Western ceremony, so I've been doing my very best to celebrate this gorgeous (inside and out) bride here in Oakland before the Big Day, showing my affection in the best way I know how -- baking her lots and lots of sweets!

Nora's Wedding Shower Dessert Menu:
Cacao Nib Cake with layers of Fresh Berries
Lemon Mini-Cucpakes
Mango-Passion Fruit Mousse with Raspberries
Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Strawberries
