The traditional wedding cake called
for a tiered, white cake with white icing. Today, just about anything
goes!
Wedding cakes come in all different shapes, styles, flavours,
colours and decorations. Your wedding cake should be individually
designed to your match own personal style and taste, as well as
the wedding decor and colour scheme.
So, let's start with the basics…
- Shapes & Sizes - The traditional shape of the
wedding cake is either round or squares. But, don't let your magination
stop there. Many shapes are now available to enhance and give a
unique look to your cake. Many bakers offer oval, hexagon and heart shapes -
just to name a few.
Although round is still the most popular. Square shaped cakes can be decorated in the style
of gift boxes in beautiful designs with cascading ribbons.
A creative
baker can create a magnificent castle or a lighthouse, for a "seaside"
wedding. Keep in mind that a square or round cake can be cut
and served more quickly, easily and will likely serve more guests. - Fancy Flavours - Having trouble choosing a flavour
for your cake? Choose a multi-flavoured cake. They come in so many
yummy varieties from vanilla to rich chocolate mud, lush white mud,
carrot, banana, caramel for those who dare to be different.
