Illuminations Dessert Party
If you're not familiar, something that you can organize through Disney catered events is a private dessert party, if you're throwing some sort of big event. They're really popular for weddings, and with this one my friends had schedule a private Illuminations Dessert party!
They had a few different desserts. One of the highlights was flambeed donuts with ice cream:
I didn't have one of these, but DH did. It looked fantastic but I will still really full of wedding food and cake so I unfortunately didn't eat too much at the dessert party. In fact, despite how full we were DH had more than one of these. He said that it was "too good for its own good"
I preferred something lighter, like white chocolate bits in dry ice with dried fruit:
Okay, it sounds a little unusual, but this was really good. I'm not even a huge fan of white chocolate and would normally pass it up, but I had to try it since it was so unique. And I liked it a lot. The texture was super light and it tasted great with the berries. I don't really know how else to describe it. It was almost like melt in your mouth.
As you can see from the pictures, they also had rice krispie and brownie lollipops covered in white chocolate. These were tasty as well.
And then they brought out a special gift for the bride and groom - their own personal bride and groom rice krispie Mickeys!
Apparently the bride and groom have a tradition of always eating a Mickey rice krispie treat when they watch Illuminations, so they requested two for the dessert party. And instead of just getting them the standard ones, Disney brought this instead. It was incredibly cool!
Overall the dessert party was great. And the fireworks were good too of course, but the food was just as good - I just wish there had been more time between the reception and the dessert party so I could have enjoyed more of the desserts!
