Nautical Mini Wedding Cakes
Adorable! That was the first thing that came to mind when I saw these Mini Wedding Cakes on Pinterest.
I have a slight obsession with miniature baked goods…I’m not sure if it makes me feel less guilty about eating something “unhealthy” or if I just like the idea of miniature things. Either way I love mini cakes, mini cupcakes, cake pops (they may not be miniature but they are small), and petit fours. And while most miniature goodies are not decorated elaborately today’s featured minis are incredible! The attention to detail is amazing…I mean look at the rope border on the tiers of the cake, the bronze anchor, the flowers, and the stripes! Can you imagine the time it took to perfect the details and make these look so good?
In my opinion these mini wedding cakes would be perfect for a dessert table or even as a wedding favor…but we want to know what you think about the whole mini cake idea?
If you love the nautical look of these mini cakes, check out this nautical wedding cake and this nautical cake topper we have featured!
Thanks, too, to our good friend Beth from Cakes by Beth for letting us know that these are the splendid work of The Caketress of Toronto!

Yellow Ombre Buttercream Wedding Cake
Are you a fan of ombre? I am. I love this look on walls, papers, dresses…and, of course, ombre wedding cakes.
This yellow ombre cake is one of the prettiest examples of the technique I’ve seen. It’s really subtle, with just a kiss of color toward the bottom, for the couple who really like the idea of a white cake, but want just a tiny touch of color. The darling cake topper, consisting of a compact nosegay of yellow roses and other flowers, perfectly punctuates the look.
Beyond the ombre, aren’t the buttercream ribbons that adorn the cake fantastic? Look closely, and you’ll see that the effect Read More
Pink and Yellow Chevron Polka Dot Wedding Cake
I remember that we flirted a little with chevrons last year, and I’m happy to see them representin’ again in 2012.
Isn’t this a darlin’ little cake? I love the sassy little polka dots that bring just the right pop of color, and the ruffly peonies say summer pretty in such a lovely way. Really, are there any prettier flowers for a wedding than flouncy peonies?
The demure size just lends to the charm. We could see this design translated to any number of hot color combinations (teal and chocolate? grey and yellow? blue and green?), and the design would be darling on a cutting cake and matching baby cakes or cupcakes or cake pops – oh my! And Read More
Hand-Painted Love Birds Cake
It’s one thing to see a cake which features details that prove that the cake artist is well-versed in the culinary arts. But it’s quite another when the baker also proves that she is an artist in the true sense of the word. Today’s featured cake shows just such a gift. We actually linked to this beautiful hand-painted cake by Dream Day Cakes of Gainesville, Florida, in our Let Them Eat Cake Round-Up last May, but it’s so special, we thought it deserved its own post.
Notice the details: both the tree on the bottom tier, as well as the branch that the bird cake toppers are “perched” on, were handpiped meticulously by baker and cake artist Yeni Monroy. Fred Read More
Yellow Abstract Flower Wedding Cake
We hear that a lot of couples are going for smaller celebrations these days. Maybe their circle of friends is smaller. Maybe they’re cutting down on the expense of a big wedding. Or maybe they’re just thinking that a wedding is kind of an intimate thing, and really doesn’t need to be shared with everyone you ever met in your life.
Whatever the reason, we’re seeing really lovely examples of smaller cakes, like Read More
Vibrant-Colored Tulip Wedding Cake
Who needs some spring…like, right this minute? ‘Cause I totally have some for you today.
Ah, Pinterest strikes again. But I love what usually happens to me. I find something I just adore on Pinterest, which leads me to someone’s website, where I find something I adore more.
That’s what happened today. And I just knew that you, my winter weary worn friends, could appreciate this pretty, vibrant cake. Four whimsical, tall layers of cake in alternating bright yellow and pretty pink and polka dots. The two top layers of Read More
Winter Themed Cake
Okay, here are two things that I am painfully aware of.
1. It is not in any way shape or form winter.
2. I know that this cake is not exactly a wedding cake..but a Nutcracker-themed cake made in celebration of a production of The Nutcracker.
Yet, here I sit, ready to get my Nutcracker on in the middle of September. Oh well. Because I adore this-six tiered creation that pays homage to all things Snowflake, Gum Drop, Sugar Plum and oh yes, I believe those are little tiny purple mice. True story, I was in The Nutcracker in the fourth Read More
Yellow Blossom Wedding Cake
So, we’ve seen many cherry blossom wedding cakes of late. But until now, I hadn’t seen yellow blossoms…and I am in love.
This cake, covered in fondant (ohso appropriate for the casual elegant outdoor reception), is trimmed with a meandering branch that spans all three layers. Daintily perched on the branch are pale yellow blossoms Read More
Yellow and Green Wedding Cake
I love when I find a cake that is like nothing else I’ve never seen before. After awhile all cakes start to resemble one another and I like to throw in an eclectic cake just to keep it interesting.
The originality in this cake comes with the coloring. I cannot remember Read More
White Chocolate Monogrammed Wedding Cake
Here we go with those birds again.
Good thing I love them…right?
There is so much to talk about with this cake I am having trouble deciding where to begin…so let’s just start with the facts. This is a four tier cake. The tiers have an alternating diamond pattern while the other layers are smooth and clean fondant. The top tier has an intricate swirl design and is topped with a gorgeous Read More
