It’s all about individually and customising your wedding cake, these days. You can design the cake of your dreams – every size, shape, type, style, colour, flavour and design. Here are a few things to consider when talking to your cake designer:
Number of guests – This will help you decide how big your cake should be. Your baker should be able to tell you the size of the cake you should get.
Style – There are 1-inch pillar cakes, 3-inch pillar cakes, stacked cakes, even flat cakes baked in interesting shapes or meaningful patterns. Also consider the number of tiers you want for your cake.
Filling – It can be anything from chocolate, cream, jam, frosting, curd, icing, mousse, fruit, to cream cheese and more. The choices are endless!
Frosting – There are three main types of frosting used in wedding cake decorating – butter cream, whipped cream and fondant.
Price – Your cake is calculated per slice and according to the number of guests.
Cost-cutting tips:
Get a smaller but elaborately – decorated cake, or consider a decorated dummy wedding cake for the display and sheet cake(s) for the guests.
Serve cupcakes! Have individual cup cakes stacked up in one magnificent tier cake, decorated with embellishments from your wedding theme. It’s also easier to serve!
