Naked Fall Wedding Cake
I’m starting to see fall creep into the stores this week. Pumpkin spice stuff is making a comeback. And, the leaves are starting to turn (at least where I live).
Which means it’s a great time to start thinking about fall wedding cakes!
And I love today’s featured cake.
This naked confection has the perfect pop of fall color and would be lovely at any fall wedding. Read More

Happy (early) Valentine’s Day!
Since we’re all about celebrating love here at A Wedding Cake Blog, it seems like a perfect day to feature a red and white cake in honor of Valentine’s Day.
This pretty cake features three tiers adorned with stark white icing, accented with red and white ribbon. I love the use of the ribbon to separate the tiers on this cake! Read More
Patriotic Wedding Cake – Red, White, and Blue!
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been glued to the television every night watching Team USA at the 2016 Olympic Games.
So that got me thinking about red, white, and blue wedding cakes – of course! – so my mission today was to find a patriotic-themed cake in honor of Team USA.

Naked Red Velvet Wedding Cake
If I had to choose just one cake flavor to eat for the rest of my life – the horror! – it would be red velvet.
The first time I had red velvet cake I fell in love instantly. The combination of the not-too-sweet cake with the cream cheese icing is pure perfection.

Sushi Wedding Cake
Time for another fabulous themed cake. This one falls in the “juxtaposition of things that definitely don’t remind you of cake, but it’s so pretty you can’t help yourself” category.
I think this cake is absolutely beautiful. The Japanese characters are flawless, and the gumpaste flowers are incredibly lifelike. But the star of the show is the assortment of gumpaste sushi that adorns the top of the cake.

And So It Begins: Winter Holiday Wedding Cakes
I figure if the big box stores are already advertising, and I’m already shopping, then it’s okay for me to start the winter holiday/Christmas-inspired cake posting…yes? I thought you’d agree.
This one had me at Red Ribbon. Is this not completely, totally, utterly fabulous? What appears to be a pile of presents is, in fact, a cake. Or a pile of cakes. I’m not sure.
At any rate, I totally Read More

Red Stripe Wedding Cake with Bride and Groom Names
Remember when I wanted preppy yesterday? Well, I wanted it today, too, but I thought it would be fun to go in search of horizontal lines instead of vertical ones.

Black and Red Wedding Cake Pop Cake
My name is Brooke, and I love cake pops. (Hi Brooke.)
Omistars…I feel certain that cake pops were some kind of happy accident, or were the obvious invention of thrifty cake bakers who couldn't imagine throwing out all those cake scraps (we used to make rumballs out of all those yummy leftovers.) Dress them up, put them on a stick, and you have the perfect two bite dessert!
But savvy folks like Julie of Party Pops by Julie are taking the artistry of the humble cake ball to a whole new level. Check out this incredible wedding cake – made from Read More
