Thanksgiving Dessert Buffet on a Budget
Make a Visual Impact
Raise the dessert bar by using cake stands and tiered dessert trays to elevate two or three sweet selections. Hacking a single-tiered cake stand is as simple as turning a wide bowl upside down and placing a plate or tray on it—the width helps create a stable base for the plate—and placing a heavy object in the center of the plate keeps it from tipping. You can even DIY a multi-tiered tray by making two or three plate and bowl layers.
Decorating on a Budget
Decorate your dessert buffet with the same creativity you bring to your Thanksgiving table and the rest of your home. This is your opportunity to go all out to make it a celebration centerpiece using warm fall colors and natural elements like pumpkins, gourds, greenery, and flowers. Take a walk around the neighborhood and see what beautiful branches you might have in your own backyard that you can decorate with.
Complete Dessert With Coffee
Make sure to have enough cups and stirrers for your guests, and for an added touch put out sugar cubes and a variety of creamers and sweeteners. Folgers® Coffee is a great addition to a dessert buffet because it comes in various forms and roasts, satisfying all your guests’ coffee needs! It’s been a part of family traditions since 1850.
