A new take on cake at your wedding are cake balls.  Cake balls serve as favors or as part of your sweet table, and can be displayed on trays or attached to toothpicks and inserted into foam shapes.  If you looking for a little taste of heaven, cake balls are just what you’ve been waiting for — bite-size bits of moist cake blended with rich frosting, surrounded in a deliciously beautiful confectionery coating. An exciting twist on cupcakes and a sophisticated alternative to traditional desserts, it’s no wonder why they’ve become such a sweet sensation. The Cake Ball Company and others started making our decadent, hand-made cake balls long before they became a dessert trend. You can purchase cake balls ready made or make your own.  Combining tried and true family recipes with the finest ingredients, cake balls are a one-of-a-kind experience. Go ahead, indulge. Just know that you won’t be able to stop with just one. But don’t worry, you can always get more!
