Simply style your board with the waffles along the center, add small cups or ramekins for the toppings, and scatter the berries to fill in the rest of the space and provide a colorful flourish.

Let Mickey Mouse offer your mom a delicious tray of fresh pastries. Bake or buy her favorite muffins, whether blueberry, banana nut or a whole assortment. Then, make an eye-catching presentation with the Mickey Mouse Cake Stand. For a sweet, personal touch, sprinkle crumbly bits of streusel on top of the muffins, serve some extra berries on the side or include a handwritten note using toothpicks and colorful paper.

Sweet Potato Rosemary Biscuits
