winter wedding cakes
Chocolate Wedding Cake
It’s that time of year when I think about chocolate – a lot.
I love the holiday season for all the sweet treats that are available and if they’re chocolate, that makes it even better!
Which brings me to today’s featured cake. It’s a naked chocolate cake but what stood out most for me was the scalloped icing.
While we know I’m not a huge fan of cakes without icing if you’re going to serve a naked wedding cake it might as well look gorgeous too. Read More
Winter Wedding Cake
Even though it is December that doesn’t mean you have to forgo the fresh flowers on your wedding cake!
There are so many lovely ways to embellish your winter wedding cake and today’s cake might be a new favorite.
I love the simplicity of this cake. The two tiers feature simple but seasonal icing in both white and chocolate (an added bonus for chocolate fans). Read More
Winter White Wedding Cake
There’s no denying it now – winter is almost officially upon us.
It’s December and that means holidays, cold weather, and snow. But it also means festive holiday weddings!
And to beat those winter blahs you’ll want a stunning winter wedding cake – like this gorgeous cake I’m featuring today. Read More
Naked Chocolate Wedding Cake
I have a confession to make – I love Oreo cookies.
Which is probably why I had to choose today’s wedding cake to showcase. It looks like a stack of Oreos. OK, well it looks like a stack of Oreos to me.
I’ll also confess that I’m not a huge fan of naked wedding cakes. I’m too much of a frosting fan to purposely eat a cake that lacks frosting.
However, this naked dark chocolate cake is really stunning because of its lack of frosting. The white icing peeking out between the tiers adds just the right amount of drama to this cake. Read More
Black and Gold Wedding Cake
Sometimes when looking for wedding cakes to showcase I run across a cake that makes me go “hmmm” and “wow!” at the same time.
Today’s cake is that cake.
I’ll admit I never thought about having a black wedding cake when I was planning my wedding all those years ago. But I can see how it would work when looking at today’s cake. Read More
Dark Wedding Cake
Fall and winter are the perfect time of year to think about a non-traditional wedding cake.
I’m talking about a cake that isn’t topped with white icing – a dark wedding cake.
Today’s cake would be the perfect late-fall or winter cake with its dark icing and fall fruit embellishments.
It’s not often that you think about a dark color of icing for your wedding cake color but this cake would absolutely work if you have bright fall colors as part of your wedding color scheme. Read More
Chocolate Wedding Cake
Once again we’re talking about chocolate! I can’t help myself – with all the Halloween candy at the stores my brain immediately thinks “chocolate.”
I think chocolate cakes are perfect for fall and winter weddings – they’re dark and decadent and seem to fit in with the colors and themes at this time of the year.
A chocolate cake in the summer would just be too much. But in the fall, when it’s cold and blustery outside, it’s perfect. 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
Snowflake Wedding Cake
There’s a blizzard outside today so I felt inspired to find a wedding cake that was inspired by snow.
I know, it would make more sense to find a beach-y wedding cake, but let’s stick with the snow for today.
In my search for that perfect snowy wedding cake I stopped by Disney’s Fairytale Weddings & Honeymoons site and found this stunning cake! Read More
White Wedding Cake with Purple Ruffles
As much as I love all things purple, one would think that I would feature more purple cakes around here. But truth be told, I don’t often find purple wedding cakes that wow me.
Until today.
I love this cake. I love it a lot.
This three-tier wedding cake is elegant and beautiful and I’d love to see it at a winter wedding.
I absolutely love the simplicity of the smooth white icing combined with the ombre purple gumpaste ribbons on the side of each tier.
The color combination is modern and not at all fussy or over-the-top. The purple shades are delicate and not garish in any way.
You don’t even need to be a big fan of purple to love this cake. It’s just that perfect.
The pearls add that perfect amount of old-world glamour to the cake.
I found this cake here. It was created by the Sofie Bifield Cake Company in Canada.
