Heaven in a Wild Flower
This boutique event-styling company stands out because of its romantic vintage style. The sweet treats – macarons, tarts and cupcakes – from their cafe arm, the ever-popular Carpenter And Cook, are already dreamy on their own, but the finishing touches to the dessert display are the most beautiful we’ve seen. Their collection of vintage props and trinkets is also available for rent.
From $1,000 for a small dessert table (for 40 people). Visit www.heavenwildfleur.com for bookings in Singapore.
Marble Slab Creamery
This live catering service provides sugary fun by letting guests choose toppings for their ice cream, then watch as the service crew mixes them all on the spot on a marble slab (packages start from $950). But if “static” ice cream is all you want, the Basic Serve-it-yourself package (from $500) will suffice – it serves 120 people with four basins of ice cream and includes cups, spoons and napkins.
E-mail catering@marbleslab.com.sg for bookings.
