Cherry on the Top Cotton Wash Wedding Cake Towel*
Your guests will laugh with glee when they see these fabulous towel cake favors. The Cherry on the Top Cotton Wash Wedding Cake Towel looks exactly like a little iced dessert waiting on the plate, cherry and all, and it holds that illusion right up to the moment somebody picks one up and realizes it is soft.
Each delectable dessert is actually a soft cotton hand towel, folded to look like a tasty treat. Set one at each place setting and watch the table work it out one guest at a time: the first person reaches for it, the second one laughs, and by the time the plates are cleared everybody at that table is holding theirs up.
These unique, practical gifts are perfect for bridal showers or a dessert theme party. At a shower, a tray of them looks like a dessert display until the guests get close. At a dessert theme party, they sit among the real cakes and nobody can tell which is which from across the room. Stack a few on a cake stand and you have a centerpiece that costs you nothing in effort and gets talked about all afternoon.
The best part is what happens afterwards. Most favors get admired and then forgotten in a drawer. This one gets unfolded, hung by a sink, and used, and every time it is picked up it reminds someone of the afternoon they were handed a cake that turned out to be a towel. Best of all, they're calorie-free!
At 4.25" long, 2.75" wide and 2" high, each one is sized like a single slice of dessert, small enough to sit beside a place card or to drop into a welcome bag, and light enough that you can order one for every guest without worrying about the shipping box. They stack neatly on a table, line up along a dessert bar, and travel well to a venue.
Choose your quantity, one towel cake per guest plus a few spares, and give your guests something they will laugh at first and use for years.

|---|---|
| A real cupcake or boxed candy favor | Choose it when the favor is meant to be eaten at the party and nothing needs to go home. |
| A plain guest towel | Choose it when you want the practical gift without the dessert disguise, and the table has its own theme already. |
For a shower or a dessert theme party, the towel cake is the one favor guests photograph before they work out what it is.
