Sunflower-Themed Thanksgiving Dessert Buffet

The arrival of fall means company's coming. What better way to entertain guests of all ages than to decorate your home in autumn's hues and fill a table or sideboard with layer upon layer of tasty treats? A dessert buffet is sure to be a crowd-pleaser because everyone can serve themselves.

Ensure that guests save the date with this printable invitation. Traditional fall colors paired with a trendy trellis pattern create a fresh take on Thanksgiving.

Celebrate the season by decorating with pumpkins, autumn-hued leaves and sunflowers. Take a stroll outdoors to discover natural elements you can use to enhance the tablescape.

Bring the outdoors in with a custom-made tiered wood cupcake stand. Cupcakes topped with fondant sunflowers or cute cupcake toppers are perfect for this occasion. To create the cupcake toppers, print the template below onto card stock and use a paper punch to create the decorative edge. Use a 1-inch white circle label to attach a 4-inch lollipop stick to the back of each topper.
