simple wedding cakes
White Cake with Cherries
Sometimes it’s nice to find a simple yet elegant wedding cake that would be perfect in any season.
Today’s cake is just that kind of cake.
I love the simplicity of the three-tiered cake adorned with Rainier cherries.
It isn’t fussy or over-the-top. It’s just pretty. And sometimes that’s all you need for a perfect wedding cake. Read More
Simple One-Tier Chocolate Wedding Cake
I love simple wedding cakes.
And if that simple wedding cake happens to be a chocolate wedding cake that’s even better!
This one-tier chocolate cake would be ideal for a small, intimate reception.
Or it would be great if the bride and groom want to have their own cake while letting the guests enjoy a dessert bar filled with sweet treats like candy, cupcakes, or even mini cakes. Read More
One-Tier Pink and White Wedding Cake
I really like the idea of having a separate centerpiece cake just for the bride and groom to cut and enjoy.
And then you can have other small cakes for the guests or a dessert bar. Something different and a bit out of the ordinary.
Today’s cake would be ideal for that concept.
This single tier cake is perfect for the new couple – you could even have it at the “head” table and then set up other cakes and desserts elsewhere. Read More
White Wedding Cake with Fresh Flowers
As much as I enjoy the occasional non-traditional wedding cake, for me it’s all about going back to the basics.
A simple white wedding cake.
I love white wedding cakes in part because they are a great canvas for whatever you might want to add.
This time of year – late fall – I love seeing gorgeous white cakes adorned with fresh flowers in dark hues. Black Magic Roses, Gerbera daisies in dark red, anything that is dramatic! Read More
Wedding Cake with Gold Bows
I like finding wedding cakes that are unique – something you aren’t going to see at every other wedding.
Today’s cake is that kind of cake. It’s not every day that you see a wedding cake adorned with tiny gold bows, and that makes me love it even more.
This three-tier cake is perfect for an elegant reception with a small guest list. Read More
Summer Wedding Cake with Flowers
One of the things I love most about summer is watching all the flowers bloom and grow and sometimes even outgrown their planting pots.
And if you’re having a summer wedding it’s a great idea to showcase some of those gorgeous summer blooms on your wedding cake!
Aside from looking great, when you decorate your cake with flowers you don’t need anything else on the cake – not even a cake topper. Read More
Beach Inspired Wedding Cake
It’s Shark Week this week on Discovery Channel. Which means I’m thinking about the beach and how it’s probably best to stay ON the beach and out of the water.
So, instead of swimming in the ocean let’s look at this lovely wedding cake that was inspired by the waves in the Big Blue!
I always wanted a beach wedding and this cake would be perfect for your beach wedding. Heck it would be perfect at your winter wedding if you had a beach theme! Read More
Wedding Cake with Fresh Berries
It’s that time of year again – time for fresh berries!
OK, maybe it’s just that time of year again in the midwest which means around here it’s all about the strawberries. And raspberries. And blackberries.
Basically right now if it has fresh berries on it, we’re going to eat it.
Which is why I am so in LOVE with this naked wedding cake! Read More
Wedding Cake with Vibrant Colors
There is nothing simple or old fashioned about this modern and very colorful wedding cake.
And I think I kinda like that.
Sure, I’m normally a traditionalist when it comes to wedding cakes but there’s something unique about this cake.
In order for this cake to “work” at your reception you’ll need to have a modern color scheme and a modern vibe to the reception. Read More
Wedding Cake with Purple Flowers
My favorite color is purple but oddly enough I didn’t use the color in my wedding.
Which might be why I love to see purple showcased in weddings whether we’re talking flowers, dresses, or even the wedding cake.
I love this cake not only because it’s purple but also because it is fun and whimsical and would be perfect for a late spring, early summer wedding. Read More
