Saving on Wedding Cakes without Sacrificing Style

Traditionally wedding cakes have been white, round, tiered or stacked and pretty tasteless.
Today's cakes can be different shapes-i.e. hearts, squares or triangles and as far as flavor goes nowadays anything goes.
Opt for your favorite. It can be chocolate, strawberry, carrot cake or cheesecake.
Cupcakes displayed in round tiers like a cake are very popular as well as cheap and practical.
Beautiful adornments include fresh flowers, fruit, ribbon or marzipan sculpted into flowers and figurines.
Your cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition- the beautiful or messy cutting-of-the-cake.
Look at lots of different ideas before you decide what you want. Visit bakeries and peruse bridal magazines. You might also find inspiration at a toy store, in china patterns or from your favorite candies.
Remember fancy cakes from the bakery are expensive, anywhere from three dollars to fifteen dollars a slice plus other charges like delivery, etc.
Some brides display their cakes on the buffet table. In my opinion, whether it's a plain cake or an elaborate five-tier designer's masterpiece, the cake should stand alone on their own table for all to admire.
Simple cakes can be very elegant. We'll give you great ideas to have a marvelous confection that will long be remembered after it's eaten and smashed in the face of the bride and groom.
