Choosing the perfect wedding cake tips

We all know that planning a wedding is a big undertaking and it’s also one of the most special and rewarding times in your life. There are many decisions to be made throughout your planning journey. Choosing your perfect wedding cake is one of those important decisions .

The wedding cake tradition has been in place since Ancient Roman times, with the ceremonial breaking of wheat or barley cake over the brides head for good fortune.
Luckily for modern day brides, these traditions have stayed in the past. Now we are blessed with the best part, the stunning designs and delicious flavours!

Set a practical budget. With bunches of different things to purchase including dress, venue, cooking and music – you have to consider the amount of your general spending plan will be spent on the cake

Think about portion size. The number of people you want to serve, and the serving size, will narrow down the number of designs you have to choose from.

Some people serve their cake as dessert. Others serve a smaller portion with coffee, and still others give guests a slice to take home.

Begin searching for ideas. Read wedding magazines that element cakes. Look online at wedding cake thoughts. Pinterest is an amazing resource for brides to be. You can basically type in all the ideas and inspiration you have – and it’ll pop up loads of relevant photos you can either use as inspiration.

Trust the experts on design. If you go to a reputable cake maker, they should have plenty of examples of different styles and designs to choose from. This is a great way to start a collaboration.

Think about heating. If you’ve got a buttercream cake, but your wedding reception is outside on a summer’s day – that might not be the wisest choice. Best to run through these things with the cake maker first!
