We would like to have a dessert table at our wedding, with a small wedding cake for us to cut. I've been in touch with Jacques, but was wondering if anyone knew of any other bakery that we could compare prices with?
Do you mind sharing what you discussed with Jacques and prices? What desserts are you including? I will be making an appointment with Jacques and want a dessert table no cake.
I'm using Wild Orchid Baking co. on rt 1. It's so nice supporting a local baker and I did a tasting the same day I did Jacques and preferred her buttercreams hands down! The pricing was the same, but her design is more elaborate and we're getting a free cake for our one year anniversary.
Another option might be Beach Pea - it's in Kittery, but they have FABULOUS baked goods. I've gotten cakes there a number of times, and if we were having our wedding on the seacoast, I would def want them to do our cake. SO GOOD!
If not Beach Pea, Sweet Dreams bakery (in Stratham) is also pretty good. Not sure what they'd do for a sweets table, but another place to check out.
Galley Hatch (Hampton) has a lot of options as well.
Galley Hatch /Popovers do have a good selection, a bit pricey but yummy. Wild Orchid, I didnt have good luck with. Looked fantastic, but not cooked in middle, ended up in trash. Beach Pea is also a good choice. There was also a place in Hampton in Depot Square, not sure of her name.
