There are so many different styles that you can create your wedding cake. Whether you chose fondant, butter cream, fresh fruit, henna designs- the possibilities are truly endless. The three main things you really need to initially decide on is the theme, color, and size. Always keep in mind your final wedding count. Why? Typically, most vendors will charge to cut and serve the cake so make sure you do not over estimate the size of your wedding cake. I mean, why pay more?
Once you have the size down then the fun part begins! Try to design a cake that really describes you as a couple. Something that truly screams, “This is us” whether it’s by the design or flavor. As you must know, the new wedding cake is not a cake anymore, but rather a cupcake! I really believe having a cupcake screams versatility. You can get so many different flavors and hey no cutting fee! What’s better than that?
Many couples are stirring away from the traditional white cake and moving towards unique replacements. Some unique cake replacements I have seen are chocolate truffles, mini lemon tarts, mini pound cakes, fondue stations, assorted pies, petits fours, candy bars, donuts, and even cookies!
Would you ever venture away from the traditional white cake? If so, what kind and why?
Here are some wedding cakes my fabulous brides have designed for their weddings.
