Wedding Cakes

The wedding cake has often been considered as the focal point of the wedding. You can order it from your caterer, at a bakery, a patisserie, or even have the wedding cake made by a special friend for an even more personal touch. Many places where you choose to hold your reception, often offer a free wedding cake into the deal – so make sure to inquire the place of which you’re going to hold your reception before purchasing a wedding cake.

Before ordering your wedding cake, you will have to choose from an array of styles – the wedding cake’s shape, color, size, flavor, and decorations will be all up to you! The wedding cake can be as large or as small as you’d like it. Such as a three-tiered wedding cake with sugar flower decorations on top, or a simple, one-tiered wedding cake. You could even go with a “Neapolitan” style wedding cake if you want a variety of flavors.

Make sure you order your cake relatively early, especially if you’re doing your wedding in the summer. Reserve your wedding cake, along with the number of guests you will be having when ordering, so any adjustments to the wedding cake can be made. Make sure the price is to your liking, as wedding cakes are usually priced by the number of slices. Also remember to ask for your wedding cake’s cutting and serving instructions, as the bigger the cake, the more difficult it is to cut and serve. It’s also smart at this time to decide who will be actually cutting the wedding cake, and supply them the given instructions.

You can have your wedding cake delivered, or you can pick the wedding cake up yourself, but it’s usually recommended for wedding couple’s to have the wedding cake delivered, as it’s one less thing to worry about, and you’ll want a professional to deliver your cake in perfect condition.

For extras to go along with your wedding cake, you might want to consider purchasing mints or truffles that will go along with your wedding cake. One of the popular traditions is to have candy bars that have wrappers with your name and wedding date printed on them for an extra touch.
