Circle Wedding Cakes

Think of a traditional wedding cake, and chances are, you will immediately envision a tiered white cake with round layers. Round, or circle, wedding cakes are the standard for tradition. Whether the layers are separated by columns, or rest one upon another, it is safe to say that the majority of tiered cakes favor layers that are round in shape. In recent years, bakers have added interest to the otherwise traditional (and sometimes unexciting) profile of a round cake by stacking layers that are very similar in size, or by varying the height of various layers. But regardless of the size and height, circle wedding cakes are here to stay. And what could be more appropriate to signify and celebrate unending love, than the circle?

I woke up this morning to very chilly fall-like temperatures and the reality that fall really is just around the corner.

So what better time to start talking about fall wedding cake, right?

I love the idea of having a rustic fall wedding – especially if it’s still warm enough outside to host an outdoor reception.

Which brings me to today’s wedding cake – it’s very rustic but also elegant, which isn’t an easy combination to pull off. Read More

Shades of Orange Wedding Cake

Posted on September 9, 2015 by Traci

So now that we’ve “officially” said goodbye to summer, it’s time to start thinking about fall.

More specifically it’s time to start thinking about ideas for fall wedding cakes.

Now I’m not normally a fan of the color orange – it’s just one of those colors that rarely wows me. Plus most orange cakes end up looking like pumpkins, which is OK if that’s the look you’re going for. Read More

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.

A Wedding Cake Made of Cheese

Posted on August 5, 2015 by Traci

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
