Ok, you
have
spent a
lot of
time
choosing
the
flavors
for your
wedding
cake,
the
design
and not
to
mention
hundreds
of
dollars
to get
the
wedding
cake
that you
truly
desire.
All of
this
hard
work
will be
wasted
if it
tumbles
to the
floor.
How will
you
prevent
this?
Read on
and I
will
give you
some
tips to
avoid
this
situation.
Keep your cake indoors. Wedding cakes and heat do not mingle well together not to mention the wind too. If you must have your cake out doors keep it in a cool shaded area if possible.
Make sure where ever you place the cake it is fully level especially if you are having an outdoor wedding.
Wedding cakes with pillars between each layers are more likely to tip so be sure to keep a close eye on the cake especially out doors in a windy environment.
Have your baker deliver the cake as late as possible that way it has the least amount of time for any incident to occur.
Following the tradition of shoving cake in each others face is a fun time but it can be a total disaster for your wedding gown so think twice about doing this.
Make
sure you
have
plenty
of
napkins
and
forks
handy to
avoid
the
habit of
wiping
your
hands on
your
clothes
or gown.
Take a
picture
with
your
gown on
and the
cake
first
then
change
out of
your
gown
into
some
more
relaxing
clothes
to avoid
staining
your
gown.
Refrigerate
your
cake
first if
taking
outdoors
to avoid
any
melting.
Have
someone
baby sit
your
wedding
cake so
it does
not take
any
bumps or
spills.
Most of
all just
be very
careful
with
your
wedding
cake or
all of
your
effort
will be
wasted.

CHOOSING
YOUR
WEDDING
CAKES
It is

pick
your
wedding

you are
dumb
founded
by all
of the

Although
even
before

create
it
you
and
your
partner
statues
to
put
at
the
top
of
the
cake.

does
the
baker
charge
for
hand
made
decorations
on
the
cake
Limit

amount
of
hand

the
cake.

than
pre-made
decorations

THEMED
WEDDING
CAKES
A gifted cake designer can go a
long way in determining the
quality and the character of the
wedding cake.
For one, theme weddings can be
a portal to truly creative wedding cake ideas. A medieval theme wedding would
warrant a cake to be laced with pearls and a golden crown. An adventure-loving
couple could have a cake topped with miniature figurines of the newlyweds in a
small plane or a motorcycle. A Victorian theme wedding, for that matter, could
have a cake adorned with bows and Victorian roses. For an Oriental-themed
wedding, a cake with two tiers topped with a vase filled with edible handmade
orchid is perfect.
Also, the theme for a wedding
cake could depend on one’s favorite flower, whether it is sunflower, pansy,
bird-of-paradise, rose etc. A talented cake designer can replicate bridal
bouquets on the cake or a garden akin to one’s yard, complete with picket
fences.
Then there are seasonal themed
cakes. Seasonal themes give the cake designer license to let his imagination run
free. For weddings that are set for the fall season, the cake can be adorned
with grapes, grape leaves and chrysanthemums. The summer-themed wedding cakes
can be accentuated with bows and white daisies.
Also, there are wedding cakes
based on one’s favorite jewelry. The diamond lover can have a stunning diamond
themed cake, though that can be an expensive option. For the jade lover, the
cake can be made to look like a stack of complex shaped jade boxes. Also, there
are wedding cakes based on china patterns.
For a truly unique wedding
cake, it is best to talk to the cake designer, preferably weeks before the
wedding date. Though there will always be that urge to come up with that
particularly outstanding design yourself, there is no harm in picking the brains
of a professional who does it for a living.
