Choosing The Perfect Wedding Cake

Will you be my wife?

It’s hard to fathom out just how one simple question could lead to so many more. Wedding planning burdens brides with the daunting task of making countless decisions. Choosing the dress alone is a big decision. Areas which require careful planning include the wedding reception venue, food, entertainment and decorations - those aspects in themselves are fairly significant in determining the success of the day. Each and every decision can bring stress and hesitation to the bride-to-be. Nevertheless, there is certainly one choice which every bride looks forward to making: the cake.

Searching for the perfect cake can be enjoyable and absolutely delicious, the task can become overwhelming if the bride isn’t sure of what she is looking for. With literally hundreds of options, a bride needs to carefully consider the cake that will best suit her needs. The budget is the factor which will have an effect on the other elements of the cake, such as size and style.

Style and design

The traditional white wedding cake remains the most popular choice. Main characteristics include white icing, fancy piping and decorations and tiers of cake with pillar supports. However, with the increasing popularity of DIY tv programs, brides-to-be are quickly looking towards more customized and quite often eccentric designs. A new trend featured in many contemporary weddings is a “cake” consisting of cake favour boxes. These boxes are being assembled to take on the appearance of a traditional wedding cake. Cupcakes are also being arranged in a similar and are an ideal solution for those guests who want to take their share home with them.

Flavour Options

This is probably the best bit of choosing a wedding cake. Although wedding cake is traditionally made of rich fruit cake, many other options are becoming more popular. Some of the most successful alternative cake flavours include chocolate, red velvet, white chocolate and even cheesecake. Extra flavour options can be added as fillings, such as berries or cream. To appeal to a large number of guests, each tier of the wedding cake can be created in a different flavour. When visiting bakeries, it is a good idea to arrive hungry.

Wedding Size

The cost of many wedding cakes is calculated by the slice. Before searching for the perfect cake, know the number of invited guests and an approximation of how many guests will attend the wedding. Serving cupcakes or slices previously placed in cake favour boxes can ensure that the cake is cut precisely, and that there is a slice for each guest.

What will the wedding cake cost?

A shop bought single tiered cake can cost from 200 GBP. The price increases based on the dimensions and style of the chosen cake.

Understandably, the bride wants her big day to be perfect, so by starting the planning early she can cross off the decisions she had make one by one without the added stress of a tight deadline. Furthermore, there is one question which should be easy for each and every guest to answer: How was the cake?
