Hopatcong Teacher's Dinner Party

So Frank's Pizza is catering a party for 70 of our teacher's here in Hopatcong and no party would be complete without dessert. I received a call last week from Kevin, the owner of Frank's, asking if I wanted the job of providing the desserts for the party... Kevin didn't have to ask twice. This is a great way to get the word out about me since I don't have a storefront and my only means of advertising right now is word of mouth.

I decided to do cheesecakes, brownies, carrot cakes and lemon bars. For the chocolate lovers brownies with ganache and for the fruit lovers lemon and blueberry cheesecakes with fresh fruit and blueberry toppings. Also don't forget the lovers of lemons.. these lemnon bars are buttery and tangy all at the same time. As for the carrot cake? Well who doesn't like carrot cake?

I always like to do an arrangement of desserts that covers a lot of different flavors and textures that I feel will be able to satisfy everyone's taste in the crowd. There has been so many times where I attended dinner parties or events where one dessert was served and usually at the likes of the host or their partner.

When planning the menu for your next event try and decide on a few extra small desserts like I did that way all of your gueets can get to enjoy along with you.

These are a few pictures of the things I made... I wish I had some leftovers!

Oh well ... back to baking!
