Unconventional Wedding Cakes
In today’s wedding world, it seems that most wedding cakes are unconventional. It’s almost unconventional to have a white on white wedding cake! But in an unconventional wedding cake might refer to the design, the topper, or the flavors featured. Regarding design, one popular unconventional style today is the topsy turvy, asymmetrical design. Stacked cake layers give the illusion that the cake could spill over any minute, when in fact, the cake is balanced and level. Unconventional toppers are another way that a couple may make their cake unique. The couple who loves Angry Birds, for instance, can feature the adorable characters perched atop their cake. Can’t last a minute without your cell phone? There’s a wedding topper for that, too. Prefer Goth to Victorian? No problem. A talented baker can help you realize your dream cake. But you might opt for traditional design and toppers, and still find ways to be unconventional with flavors – even savory alternatives to wedding cakes, like “cakes” made of wheels of cheese, or layers of savory meet pies, might stand in for a conventional cake. So, express yourselves! In cake! And send us pictures.

Pink Macaron Wedding Cake
There are fancy wedding cakes and then there are cakes that are just out-of-this world.
This pink macaron wedding cake fits neatly in the second category.
There is so much going on with this cake that your eyes aren’t sure where to look first – but that’s a good thing!
The three tier square cake is covered in light pink fondant and then macarons – some pink and some playing into the abstract art of the peony cake topper. Read More
Chocolate Chip Cookie Wedding Cake
I’m always on the lookout for a unique and ‘why-didn’t-I-think-of-that’ wedding cake idea. And today I think I’ve found it!
It’s a chocolate chip wedding cake. Not a cake made to taste like a chocolate chip cookie, but a tower full of chocolate chip cookies made to look like a wedding cake.
It’s brilliant. Read More
White One-Tier Wedding Cake
There’s something to be said for an elegant, one-tier wedding cake.
With a smaller cake there’s no muss, no fuss but the cake can still steal the show.
While I’m a fan of big, elegant and fancy wedding cakes I also like the smaller cakes.
Whether you’re hosting a small, intimate reception and you don’t need a big cake, or you’re planning on serving other desserts (cupcakes, a dessert bar, or maybe a cheese wedding cake) – a one-tier cake can be perfect for so many reasons. Read More
Black and White Ribbon Wedding Cake
There’s just something about a black and white wedding cake that (subtly) screams glamour and elegance.
I’m a fan of the traditional white wedding cake – even though I do love cakes with pops of color too – but when the only color added is black it takes the cake to a whole new level of awesome.
I love this wedding cake. The tiers are iced to resemble lace – perhaps just like the lace in your wedding dress. And then each tier is embellished with a gorgeous and modern black and white fondant ribbon. Read More
Tree Trunk Wedding Cake with Leaves
The leaves are falling from the trees in earnest around here and I have to admit I’d prefer if the leaves stayed on the trees for a bit longer. Because we all know that once the leaves have fallen the snow takes over.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Today we’re talking about leaves. Bright colored fall leaves.
Just like the fondant leaves on this “tree trunk” wedding cake.
I just love the cool fall vibe of this cake. Read More
