Whether it's the bittersweet joy of seeing your young adult receive his high school diploma or the simply sweet fun of a kindergartner on "moving up day," congrats to the grad are always in order! And no celebration is complete without the sweet spot at the end: a table of confections. The tables onthese pages are set to please for two different graduation parties – one for kindergarten graduation, the other for the high school graduate.
Meant for a younger crowd of kindergarten graduates, this A-B-C & 1-2-3 table offers a playful vibe, accented by a very current and trendy neon green color. A fun backdrop introduces more colors, which are present in all the desserts: cake pops, whoopie pies, Jell-O, red velvet cupcakes, white chocolate and raspberry krispies treats, chocolate bars, sugar cookies and alphabet cube favors. Lots of candy complements the display. (All baked goods by Sweet Tablescapes; flowers by Adam Leffel Productions).
