Simple Wedding Cakes

 

Sometimes simple says it best. You might choose a simple wedding cake because you prefer a minimalist approach, or because you like you like to stick with the basics when it comes to cake, or even because you are interested in showcasing a particularly fancy flower or cake topper, simple wedding cakes never go out of style. The basic, stacked, white wedding cake, frosted in a smooth coating of buttercream or covered in a snowy blanket of fondant, may hide beautiful flavors and colors beneath its exterior – the best of both worlds. Or maybe you and your groom prefer the traditional “white cake, white frosting” approach – or “chocolate cake, chocolate frosting” – after all, simple doesn’t necessarily mean traditional. On the other hand, a simple cake may be the perfect way to showcase a special caketopper or flower that has personal meaning for you. A topper that shows your style or a hobby that you and future hubby share becomes all the more visible when it doesn’t need to compete with a fancy cake. Maybe you have a family heirloom that can nestle atop your cake. Alternatively, some dazzling orchids or floppy peonies may be all the statement that you need to make. A simple cake need not be boring, after all.

Pretty in Pink Wedding Cake

Growing up, pink was not my favorite color. But now, I will admit that I’m kind of partial to all things pink.

And I especially love the idea of having a pink wedding cake. My favorite hue – a light pink. Think, pastel.

It’s the perfect color for spring or early summer and it has a very happy vibe to it. Read More

Spring Wedding Cake with Fresh Flowers

Can you feel it? We’re getting SO close to the first day of spring! I want to celebrate with all kinds of fresh flowers!

Specifically, let’s celebrate with today’s gorgeous “naked” wedding cake topped with a huge bouquet of fresh flowers.

How lovely is this cake?

The single-tier vanilla cake with white icing is rather nondescript on its own. In fact without the flowers it would be kind of boring. Read More

We’re huge fans of chocolate cake here at A Wedding Cake Blog. We looove chocolate cake and we also love the idea of a chocolate wedding cake.

It’s so fun and somewhat non-traditional to serve a chocolate wedding cake. (We’re talking all chocolate, not just a tier or two).

And this nearly-naked chocolate cake with a rustic vibe is a perfect cake for your early spring wedding. Read More

Naked Wedding Cake with Strawberries

If there’s one fruit that makes me think of all things summer it is the strawberry.

It could be the dead of winter (like right now) and if I buy strawberries at the store I feel a little more hopeful about warm weather that is coming down the pike.

Which brings me to today’s wedding cake. This lovely, simple one-tier cake adorned with strawberries. Read More

One-Tier Rose Wedding Cake

I love roses. They’re one of my favorite blooms, especially when it comes to wedding flowers.

In fact, my wedding bouquet was made of roses and I used roses on my 8-tier wedding cake.

Today’s cake is a bit more simple – with just one tier – and much more rustic than my over-the-top early-2000’s cake. Read More
