“ When you’re exchanging your vows in front of your friends & family - that’s the moment you marry each other and the rest is just a piece of paper”
A Croquembouche (or Croque-en-bouche) is a French dessert traditionally served at weddings, baptisms, and first communions. They are pastry balls piled into a cone and bound with threads of caramel and occasionally decorated with sparklers. What a treat for your guests!
