Chocolate Weddings!

chocolate death balls
Chocolate Fudge Truffles aka Death Balls

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and once again our thoughts melt towards Chocolate! Catering By Teatime serves our famous Chocolate Fudge Truffles at many wedding receptions as the perfect chocoholic indulgence. A former client ironically nick named them “Death Balls”.
While the February holiday often elicits cravings for chocolate, here at Teatime chocolate rules year round.

Chocolate Wedding Cake with Chocolate Curls

 One of our signature wedding cakes features three tiers of Chocolate Fudge Cake, Chocolate Ganache, and Dark Chocolate Curls and fresh flowers.  It is rustic and bold, the scent of chocolate perfumes an entire room.  It is a bold statement for a bride and groom.  In thirty years as a caterer I never get tired of seeing the expressions on guests faces when they discover the wedding cake, and it’s non traditional.
If you aren’t quite daring enough to jump into full scale Dark, our white chocolate curl cake is more traditionally main stream…

Our White Chocolate Curl Wedding Cake can be made with any flavor of cake:  Chocolate Fudge with a Raspberry Filling; Yellow Butter with Fresh Strawberry Filling; Almond Butter with a Raspberry Filling; Carrot Cake with a Cream Cheese Filling.  With the addition of fresh flowers the cake is a showstopper.

Decorating Wedding Cookies

 In 2014 we catered a wedding reception at a private residence in Washington DC on Valentine’s Day.  Becky, in above photo, is decorating heart shaped butter cookies to be served with dessert.
Proving it doesn’t always have to be all about chocolate, but is DOES have to be all about butter!

weddng cake made with brownie bites
Ruth’s Brownie Wedding Cake

 Hard as it might be to believe, some people don’t like cake.  Or so I’ve been told.  But who doesn’t love a brownie, right?  So we created our Brownie Wedding Cake.  Three tiers of brownie bites including Cream Cheese Brownies; Red Velvet Brownies; Peanut Butter Brownies; Rocky Road Brownies; and Blondies.  Instead of a slice of cake at the end of a wedding reception, each guest table gets a small plate of assorted bites.  Yum!!

chocolate and fruit
Fresh Fruit with Drizzled Chocolate

 On the lighter side, at a recent Northern Virginia wedding we provided a display of Strawberries and Fresh Pineapple Slices drizzled with Milk Chocolate.  It is a stunning dessert, slightly less indulgent than our Death Balls, but still hits all the right spots.  There are very few fresh fruits that don’t pair well with Chocolate.  Add a glass of Prosecco and you are good to go.

While Valentine’s Day is a perfect excuse to indulge in all things chocolate, any day of the year is a perfect excuse.  Catering By Teatime can create the perfect menu for any occasion – wedding reception, anniversary party, birthday celebration, retirement party, let’s throw a party because I am so sick of winter.  We service the Northern Virginia Metropolitan area as well as Montgomery County MD and Prince George’s County MD and Washington DC.
