Wedding Cake Designs

wedding Cake Designs

The most fun part about wedding planning is deciding on your wedding cake and wedding cake designs.

Many a times, the bride and groom have arguments over their tastes with regards to the presentation of the bridal shower. So it is ideal that the newlyweds make a joint decision together and plan the design well in advance.

Traditional wedding cake design

The most traditional wedding cake designs tend to be beautiful floral patterns on the cake. Usually, if it is an elegant white wedding cake, the design will be that of white flowers with slender green or white stems and leaves branching out across the entirety of the cake or growing on different tiers, if it is a multi tiered wedding cake.

Prince William and Kate Middleton had a variation of this design for the wedding cake at their royal ceremony. They went for a floral print on a fruit cake.

Taking another traditional cue from the royal wedding, it is a highly romantic idea to have the initials of the couple intertwined on the cake itself.

Designer wedding cakes

Remember the miniature bride and bridegroom on the top of a multi layered cake? That imagery has become extremely quaint with the advent of designer wedding cakes. Here, the bride and groom hire specialized bakers who are capable of personalizing the wedding cake designs and ornamentations to the nth degree, under the supervision and detailed requests of the married couple to be.

Some other ideas would be to base the color and pattern of the wedding cake on the decor of the wedding venue. A red wedding cake would be suitable for a wedding venue decked out in warm red drapes. Similarly, if there are any specific patterns and motifs featured prominently in the wedding decor or bridal gown, you may have your designer replicate those exact same patterns on your wedding cake as well.

Flowers, ferns, and beads also make for pretty wedding cake ornaments of the inedible kind.

You may enlist the help of various online photo galleries and magazines dedicated to wedding cake designs to make your choice. Just remember one thing. Ultimately, it is your taste that should be satisfied and if that one criterion is not met properly, then there is no point in dressing up the cake in a way meant only to impress the wedding guests gathered at the ceremony. Put yourself first and foremost, always.

Simple Wedding Cakes Design


Simple things are always beautiful and so are simple wedding cakes. Wedding cake designs that are very intricate or offbeat are often expensive. The taste and the appearance of the wedding cake should be good.

You can simply stick sugar flowers to form a design or draw it with butter cream. You can draw beautiful floral designs on all tiers of the cake. Your cake design depends a lot on the season you are getting married apart from your personal preferences. The colors you choose also could largely depend on the season and this quite helps in setting the mood for the wedding.

For instance, if you are getting married in spring, you could include all the colors of the spring. You could draw blossomed flowers on the cake. The gaiety and cheerful mood of the spring would set a nice tone for a spring wedding. You could place vibrant pink flowers on a simple three tier white cake. These flowers could be made of sugar or gum paste. You can also draw these flowers on the cake.

Polka dots on cake look fabulous. Polka dots on just about anything from cake to clothes have always been known to look trendy and faddish. These dots look good in any pastel shade on a simple white 3 tiered cake.

A basket weave is simple and looks good. A white basket of a three tiered white cake looks amazing. You could decorate this basket with fruits or flowers of your choice. You could use fresh ones or the ones made from edible sugar or gum.

Cherry blossoms look wonderful on a wedding cake and also have a deep meaning in some traditions. Cherry blossom trees look wonderful and they make you stop and gaze at them. Cherry blossoms indicate beauty of women especially in Japanese culture. You can draw or paste cherry blossoms on any white or pastel color cake.
