Angie’s Cake Platters
Catering dessert options, like cake platters, are a perfect way to impress your guests and add a touch of elegance to your event. We have a myriad of immaculate cake platters on offer, with ample variety and accommodating multiple dietary requirements. These inclusive options allow your guests to enjoy the festivities and delicious cake platters, without worrying about their dietary restrictions.
Our cake platters predominantly consist of bite-sized mini bundt cakes, adding a more distinct and unique dessert option to your spread. The unique and symbolic origins of bundt cakes play on the German word “bund”, which roughly translates to ‘a group of people’. They are undoubtedly an excellent addition to any event or function. Our mini version allows our cake platters to contain 35 to 40 small bite-sized pieces, ensuring every guest gets to have a taste of our delicious desserts. Below, we get into our cake platters and suggested themes they can be paired with.
Blueberry, Pistachio, & White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes
Angie’s Blueberry, Pistachio, & White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cake platters are gluten-free almond cakes. We use only the highest quality ingredients for these delectable platters. Ground almonds, caster sugar, butter, and fruit are among these high-quality ingredients. The fruity profile is added by combining blueberry powder, raspberry flavouring, and dehydrated raspberry to the batter. The mini bundt cake is then topped with a mouthwatering combination of buttercream and icing sugar, topped with white chocolate buttons and a fresh raspberry or blueberry. These are truly special cake platters that are the perfect balance of moistness and flavour with a burst of fruity delights.
Cake Platters For Fairy Tale Festivities
When thinking of hosting a fantastical fairytale-themed event, our Blueberry, Pistachio, & White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cake platters are second-to-none. These cake platters have both the taste and aesthetic of an outdoor adventure. When catering for outdoor fairy tale festivities, this is an unmissable addition.
Stories like Hansel and Gretel, with their sweet treats, would be paired well with the buttercream and chocolate toppings of these mini bundt cake platters. Other festivities, like a Renaissance faire, would also be elevated with these cake platters. They are the perfect size for a delicious treat, reminiscent of simpler desserts featuring fruit. It is the perfect balance of flavour and beauty to add to a whimsical theme.
Baked Ricotta and Hazelnut Cheesecake
Angie’s Baked Ricotta and Hazelnut Cheesecake platters elevate the classic flavours with an original recipe. Cheesecake is a classic choice, with baked ricotta and roasted hazelnut, a modern and intriguing combination that creates an unorthodox combination of bright flavours. We add vanilla and raspberry to heighten these bright flavours, then top them off with chocolate buttercream and raspberries. This is the only one of our cake platters that is not gluten-free, but is still made with fresh, local, and high-quality vegetarian ingredients.
Cake Platters For Classical Literature-Themed Events
When hosting a more intimate gathering, these Baked Ricotta and Hazelnut Cheesecake platters spoil your guests with a combination of elegance and classic flavours. For instance, when hosting a smaller gathering like a book club, these cake platters are particularly theme-appropriate to classic literature. James Joyce’s “Ulysses”, Proust’s “In Search of Lost Time” and Franzen’s “The Corrections” all feature famous baked desserts.
For example, “The Correction” features cupcakes that are described as “delicious with a butter frosting”, which complements the chocolate buttercream of our baked Ricotta and Hazelnut Cheesecake platters. When pairing a book with the perfect cake platter, you can take your themed event to the next level. So, why not make your next book club meeting better with our beautiful cake platters?
Lemon & Elderflower Mini Bundt Cakes
Our Lemon & Elderflower Mini Bundt Cake platters use the same base as the Blueberry, Pistachio, & White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cake platters, but the combination of flavouring is changed. The base ingredients are made from butter, eggs, and caster sugar, but we elevate this recipe by adding cornflour, lemon, thyme, and raspberries. The thyme and lemon add to the already unique and luxurious taste experience. Finally, these gluten-free cake platters are topped with an elderflower, adding more aesthetic appeal to the already beautiful and mouth-watering bite-sized cake.
Cake Platters For A ‘Let Them Eat Cake’ Celebration
If you are looking for something more luxurious and unique for your celebration, our Lemon & Elderflower Mini Bundt Cake platters are perfect. In particular, the elderflower adds to this effect. The elderflower is native to Europe and flourishes particularly in the United Kingdom and France. Another beautiful aspect of this platter is that it can be combined with anything extravagant, from a ball to a masquerade.
It is the perfect symbolism of the historical expression “Let them eat cake”, attributed to a French princess. Cake was considered a luxury, and elderflowers are symbolic of rebirth. When we pair these concepts, cake platters like our lemon and elderflower bundt cakes can create an atmosphere of celebration and opulence for a grand event. Next time you’re thinking of hosting a masquerade, ball, or high tea, Angie’s has got you covered.
Mixed Cake Platters
Angie’s mixed cake platters include both the Lemon and Elderflower Mini Bundt Cakes and the Blueberry, Pistachio, and White Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes. It offers both unique flavours and aesthetics in one beautifully presented package. This is perfect if you want to give your guests more variety, as both cake platters are gluten-free, they are accommodating to all.
Cake Platters For A Mad Hatter Tea Party
When thinking of tea parties in general, you can never go wrong with cake platters. Particularly if you want to have a theme for your tea party; an Alice in Wonderland event would pair beautifully with these cake platters. Fruity and earthy flavours are known to go well with tea, and the berry and lemon flavours take it that extra step further.
Even spicy teas pair well with milk or white chocolate, which balances our buttercream and white chocolate buttons. Not only are the flavours complementary, but the bright colours suit the wonder of Alice and the Mad Hatter. The vibrant colours of the elderflower and berries in these cake platters make an aesthetically pleasing addition to any dessert table. These cake platters are also the ideal bite-sized snack, just right for a tasty treat at the tea party.
