Holiday Dessert Table

Stately, elegant, and festive - the perfect description for the miniature dessert table we did for a holiday wedding reception held at Calhoun Beach Club.  Coordinated by Dawn Ewest of Dawn Michelle Designs, the space was decorated with Christmas trees, garland, candles, floral arrangements, and more which made for a stunning setting. Shelly Mosman Photography captured all of the details of the spread in the photos below.

Cocoa & Fig miniature desserts included Vanilla Salted Caramel and Toasted Coconut Mini Cupcakes, Key Lime and Banana Pudding Dessert Shooters, Lemon Meringue Tartlets, Vanilla French Macarons, Chocolate Cake Lollipops, White Chocolate Covered Pretzels, and Tuxedo Dipped Strawberries.  Enjoy!

Cocoa & Fig in Southwest Newspapers

 
We're honored to be featured in Southwest Newspapers today!  Reporter Leah Shaffer visited the Cocoa & Fig Shakopee production kitchen to interview Laurie and Joe, and check out all of the new holiday items baking in the kitchen.  The article titled Cocoa & Fig offers seasonal goodies, with a twist was printed in the Let's Go section of all Southwest Newspapers including the Eden Prairie News, Savage Pacer, Chaska Herald, and more.  Here's a short excerpt:

If you’re the type who’s ever yawned at the usual offering of sugar cookies and gingerbread, Cocoa & Fig’s holiday treats might be the menu to check out.

The bakery specializes in “just making things a little bit more gourmet than maybe grandma made them but still have some flavors that are reminiscent of what you had when you were a kid,” Pyle said.

For example, salted caramel is the popular treat this season.

“We are doing our salted caramel nut tarts which is sort of a kicked up version of a pecan pie,” Pyle said. Cocoa & Fig’s head pastry chef is allergic to pecans. “So maybe selfishly, I wanted something that didn’t have pecans,” she added.

Another classic with a twist: chewy, chocolate ginger cookies.

Cocoa & Fig’s recipe adds Valrhona cocoa powder and 70 percent chocolate chunks with crystallized ginger. Definitely not your grandma’s gingerbread man.
