Weddings are a very special time in any couples life and a cake is very important to sweeten the celebration. Wedding cakes are always a very important thing on the list of a wedding planner. A good cake is a major responsibility. The classic three tier cake is seen in most weddings but one can get experimental with cakes too as the style of wedding celebrations undergo a mega change.
Designer Wedding Cake
If you want to make your wedding cake something as special as the warm fuzzy feeling of saying the vows then get yourself a designer cake. You can special cakes in heart shapes with elaborate decorations. You can try a letter cake with the first letters of the groom and bride set in a heart. You can even try a cake made to look like a wedding ring with real Swarovski set in it. What could get more special than this? (Just decide who takes the crystals) Try a photo cake with the photos of yourself and your partner. It will be hard to cut but surely memorable when you look back at your wedding cake snaps.
The Classic Wedding Cake
If you are having a traditional white wedding than what better than the traditional three tier wedding cake. Make a white cake with immaculate decorations on the sides. Dress it in fresh flowers if that is what you like. Use white orchids, yellow roses or just petals of pink roses. You can even make a chocolate three tier wedding cake if the groom and bride’s favourite flavour is chocolate. (By the way chocolate is also a great aphrodisiac)
There are many pre-made decorations that are available which can help you dress the wedding cake. You can even use a groom and bride doll on the cake or wedding bells.
Wedding Theme cake
Weddings are now theme based. Why not the cake? The cakes too can be in tune with the theme of the wedding. If the theme of the wedding is a ‘beach wedding’ then the cake could be like a beach with sand like decorations, blue waters and the couple doll on the beach. If the theme is a royal wedding the cake could be a crown, a weapon or a carriage. So depending of the theme of the wedding the wedding cake can be easily customized. Just keep in line with the theme and the wedding cake isn’t hard to find.
Special Flavour Wedding Cakes
We almost forgot the special flavours. Have you felt surprised if you ate a vanilla cake and found chocolate cubes inside your mouth? That’s the magic of special flavours. Wedding cakes can be of special flavours and move beyond the usual variety of chocolate and vanilla. How about making a butter rum cake, a champagne cake, a mint cake or a mocha hazelnut cake? You can give the cake an absolute twist with the flavouring and ingredients you add to it. Find out the flavours your partner savours and try to use it in your wedding cake. It will be a delightful treat and surprise. Watch the expression your partner’s face when he takes that first bite on finding a new taste melting in his/her mouth. Try it you might like it… And for that wedding, it will be another memorable moment that you can’t capture in a picture!
