fall wedding cakes
Chocolate Wedding Cake
If there’s one thing I wish I could do over from my wedding so many years ago it would be to include chocolate in my wedding cake.
Back in the day it was all about the white wedding cake – sure the flavors under the icing could vary, but standard white icing was all the rage.
But now I love the idea of serving a chocolate cake with chocolate icing because your guests will never expect it! Read More
Fall Basket Wedding Cake
It sure feels like fall today so that got me thinking about all things fall, like trips to the apple orchard. And baskets full of apples.
Which brings me to today’s wedding cake inspired by baskets.
I really like this five-tier cake for several reasons, including the fact that the icing color is rather non-traditional. It isn’t often that you see a mocha-hued wedding cake. Read More
A Wedding Cake Made of Cheese
I love cheese.
I’m talking I could eat cheese at every meal if given the opportunity. Which is probably why I would love to be invited to a wedding reception where the cake was made entirely of cheese.
Just like today’s wedding cheese cake.
This stunning cake was created using five wheels of cheese and it would be the perfect “cake” for a reception where there was also a dessert buffet. Read More
Wedding Cake with Roses
Happy December!
As we tread lightly into the winter season, I want to hold on tightly to any remnant of fall even when it comes to fall-inspired wedding cakes.
Today’s cake evokes thoughts of late fall and early winter so it seemed perfect for the first day of December.
This three-tier cake features fluffy white icing and some gorgeous fresh flowers including a white dahlia and blush roses. Read More
White One-Tier Wedding Cake
There’s something to be said for an elegant, one-tier wedding cake.
With a smaller cake there’s no muss, no fuss but the cake can still steal the show.
While I’m a fan of big, elegant and fancy wedding cakes I also like the smaller cakes.
Whether you’re hosting a small, intimate reception and you don’t need a big cake, or you’re planning on serving other desserts (cupcakes, a dessert bar, or maybe a cheese wedding cake) – a one-tier cake can be perfect for so many reasons. Read More
Black and White Ribbon Wedding Cake
There’s just something about a black and white wedding cake that (subtly) screams glamour and elegance.
I’m a fan of the traditional white wedding cake – even though I do love cakes with pops of color too – but when the only color added is black it takes the cake to a whole new level of awesome.
I love this wedding cake. The tiers are iced to resemble lace – perhaps just like the lace in your wedding dress. And then each tier is embellished with a gorgeous and modern black and white fondant ribbon. Read More
Orange Wedding Cake with Chocolate Flowers
With Halloween only two days away I was searching for a wedding cake that would be the perfect centerpiece for an holiday wedding.
I think this orange and dark brown cake is the one.
After all, you can’t go wrong with a cake that features the best Halloween colors, right?
I love that the orange glow of this cake is more of a golden orange hue, rather than a pumpkin orange. Read More
Wedding Cake with Apples and Figs
If there is one fruit that symbolizes fall it’s the apple.
Living in the Midwest, no fall season is complete without a visit to the apple orchard where you buy a bushel of apples, some apple cider, and maybe an apple pie or two.
And so when I found this wedding cake that uses apples as a decoration I just had to share it!
This is the perfect fall cake with the apples, figs, dark berries, and succulents as the only decorations. Read More
Tree Trunk Wedding Cake with Leaves
The leaves are falling from the trees in earnest around here and I have to admit I’d prefer if the leaves stayed on the trees for a bit longer. Because we all know that once the leaves have fallen the snow takes over.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Today we’re talking about leaves. Bright colored fall leaves.
Just like the fondant leaves on this “tree trunk” wedding cake.
I just love the cool fall vibe of this cake. Read More
White Wedding Cake with Pastel Flowers
It’s been a while since we featured a wedding cake from Disney’s Fairytale Weddings and Honeymoons, so when I saw this cake I just had to share it!
My favorite aspect of this cake – the purple flowers. Sure there are also some pastel pink flowers in there but I am in love with the lilac roses!
I love wedding cakes with fresh flowers and when those flowers are roses I love it more. But when they’re purple (and pink) roses? It’s all over. I think this could be my new favorite wedding cake. Read More
