6 Beautiful Wedding Cake Trends

Who doesn’t love cake? There are so many different shapes, sizes and flavours and the beauty of a wedding cake is that you don’t have to choose just one kind!

We have put together some of our favourite creative cakes that are sure to give that ‘wow’ factor at any wedding.

Watercolour & Painted Cakes

For all of the art lovers out there, watercolour cakes are great. The icing acts as a blank canvas so can be designed to your specifications and will look brilliant if you hire an artistic cake maker to hand paint it. Not to mention that you’d be eating your very own piece of edible art!

Ruffles

Forget royal icing, ruffled buttercream and fondant icing is the new trend. Not only is it sophisticated, but it also looks fantastic. The ruffles can be in vertical or horizontal lines, or if you’d like to take it one step further the ruffles can be made into flowers.

Naked

Naked cakes are literally what they say on the tin, cakes that bear all. Naked cakes expose the inside of the cake, which looks fantastic when adorned with berries, flowers and greenery.

Geometric

Forget vintage detailing and go for a bold modern design with a geometric wedding cake.  Stripes, shapes, mosaics, the unique and usually colourful patterns on geometric cakes are extremely eye catching and are great for Brides who are looking for something slightly different.
