dessert table

Cake display station

A dessert table is a display of sweets at a party, wedding, or other gathering—typically arranged on a decorated table for guests to serve themselves.

The term can also refer to the furniture itself: We need a dessert table for the reception.

Unlike a single cake or plated course, a dessert table offers variety and visual appeal.
