Do you know everything there exists to know about wedding cakes? The greater knowledgeable you are, the better the decisions you shall make. We've got you covered with this top tips.
Flavor the Cake
- As you may start establishing appointments, find out when each baker's next tasting is planned. At tastings, clients are invited into the bakery to test exemplary cakes, ask questions, and review portfolios. This is a great possibility to meet bakers and understand the range of their abilities fully.
Select a Style
- Cope with the cake after all decisions about dress reception and style decor have been made. These elements can serve as a blueprint for the design and structure of your wedding cake. Choose a cake that's compatible with the design of the venue, the growing season, your gown, the flower arrangements, or the menu. If you want vibrant accents (such as glucose flowers or icing ribbons), give your baker fabric swatches. The cake should participate the wedding, not really a glaring sideshow.
Size It Up
- Generally, three tiers will serve 50 to 100 guests; you will likely need five layers for 200 guests or even more. When the reception is in a grand room with high ceilings, consider increasing the cake's stature with columns between your tiers. (A "stacked" cake is one with its layers stacked straight atop each other, without separators.)
Price It Out
- Wedding wedding cake is costed by the cut -- the cost varies often, but generally varies from $1.50 to $15 per cut (though this is a very basic and loose estimate). The more complicated the wedding cake (predicated on intricate decorations or hard-to-find fillings), the higher the high cost. Fondant icing is more expensive than buttercream, and if you would like elaborate molded patterns, vibrant colors, or handmade sugar-flower detailing, you'll pay for the cake designer's labor.
Find Methods to Save
- Order a little cake that's adorned to efficiency but can only just feed a handful plus several sheet cakes of the same taste to actually supply the guests. Avoid tiers, handmade glucose flowers, and specially molded shapes. Garnish with seasonal flowers and fruit for a stylish (but less costly) effect. If you'll have a dessert stand (or another sweet) in addition to the cake, look at a cake size for half your guests. Servings will be smaller, but the fee will shrink too.
Get the Facts on Frosting
- Buttercream or fondant? That's the main question. Buttercream is often much more delicious. But if you love the smooth, almost surreal-like look of fondant around we do, consider frosting the cake in buttercream first and adding a layer of fondant over the whole confection then.
Consider the Weather
- If you are having an outdoor wedding in a hot weather, avoid whipped cream, meringue, and buttercream: They melt. Ask your baker about summer icing options; You might like to go for a fondant-covered wedding cake -- it doesn't even need to be refrigerated.
Mind Your Magazines
- Keep in mind, periodicals (like ours) have food stylists, editors, and assistants working nonstop to keep carefully the cakes looking perfect. These people spend hours correcting the perspiration, dripping, leaning, or sagging that can occur to a cake after it has been sitting for some time. In case what they do doesn't work, they can fix it with Photoshop. There is also the luxury of creating cakes from stuff that isn't edible -- most cakes in magazines are iced pieces of Styrofoam, which certainly doesn't taste very good. So don't expect your wedding cake designer to be able to replicate just what you see on the net
TAKE NOTICE: It's All in the Details
- With regards to decoration, adornment costs run the gamut. The most inexpensive option is fresh fruits or blossoms that, in some instances, can be employed because of your florist for a minor fee. Over the high end are delicate gum sweets or paste paste blossoms, which are created by hand, one petal at the right time. But here's underneath line: All add-ons -- including marzipan fruits, chocolate-molded flowers, and lace points -- will raise the rate. (For the record, we think it's worth the cost!)
Encourage Cake Collaboration
- If you wish to garnish your wedding cake with fresh bouquets, find out if the cake custom shall use your florist, or if you are in charge of the blooms. In case the florist is operating the show, will she have period to adorn the wedding cake? Be wary of sophisticated floral accents if your reception space decoration is labor-intensive.
Get Him Involved!
- The acceptance of the groom's wedding cake, traditionally a Southern custom, is increasing. The bride's cake -- the one trim by the couple at the reception -- is traditionally eaten as dessert. The groom's wedding cake is usually darker and richer (often delicious chocolate) and nowadays crafted to show off of the groom's passions and obsessions. Give slices to friends as a take-home memento or slice and provide both for dessert.
Go Mini?
- Many bakers agree that the thought of a mini wedding cake (where each visitor gets his / her own) is a great idea -- theoretically but not always used. Not only does indeed each wedding cake require its own design (often as complicated, or even more, than one that's four times its size), each will require its own field. Unfortunately, boxes don't come in mini-cake sizes. Often the bakery must build individual boxes where to move these cakes. Multiply by however many friends you'll be having, and you will see what a costly, time-consuming feat this actually is. That said, if you can swing it, they look amazing being passed around by waiters on sleek silver trays (and of course, they taste as great too).
