Chocolate Wedding Cake
If there’s one non-traditional wedding cake that I’ll always be a fan of it’s the chocolate wedding cake.
Everyone is expecting a cake with white icing, even if the cake inside is a variety of flavors. So why not wow your guests and surprise them with a chocolate frosted cake?
The cake flavors could vary – chocolate, marble, yellow – but to see a wedding cake frosted with gloriously delicious chocolate icing? That would be incredible! Read More

White Wedding Cake with Flowers
Since a good portion of the country is buried in white fluffy snow, it seemed appropriate to focus on an all-white wedding cake today.
Granted this cake is way prettier than any pile of snow – and it won’t make your toes cold either!
You know I’m a sucker for traditional all-white wedding cakes – call my old fashioned but I like traditional cakes. Sure a pop of color or a whimsical cake is good every now and then, but I like white cakes. Read More
Gray Wedding Cake
OK so maybe you haven’t given much thought to a gray wedding cake – after all gray is usually synonymous with dreary things.
But it can actually be a stunning color on your cake when it’s done the right way.
This three-tier cake isn’t drab or depressing – the charcoal gray icing is dark and elegant and set off by colorful fruit, succulents, and gold leaves.
As much as I’m a fan of traditional wedding cakes when I see cakes that showcase ‘thinking outside the cake box’ design it’s exciting. And this charcoal gray cake is a new favorite. Read More

Wedding Pies
It’s time to think outside of the cake box today!
As much as I love wedding cake (actually all cake), sometimes it’s nice to color outside the lines and do something unexpected.
Like serving miniature pies instead of wedding cake.
Now that’s a dessert trend I can get behind.
Everyone goes to wedding receptions prepared to eat a slice of cake but what if you wowed your guests instead with cute and delicious miniature pies? That would be an amazing reception! Read More
