Have you any idea everything there exists to learn about wedding cakes? The more informed you are, the better the decisions you shall make. We have you covered with this top tips.
Tastes the Cake
- Since you start establishing consultations, find out when each baker's next tasting is slated. At tastings, clients are asked in to the bakery to test exemplary cakes, ask questions, and review portfolios. This is a great opportunity to meet bakers and fully understand the range of their abilities.
Select a Style
- Cope with the cake after all decisions about dress reception and style design have been made. These elements can provide as a blueprint for the framework and design of your wedding wedding cake. Choose a cake that's appropriate for the design of the venue, the season, your gown, the flower arrangements, or the menu. If you want vibrant accents (such as sweets bouquets or icing ribbons), give your baker textile swatches. The cake should participate the wedding, not 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 at a grand room with high ceilings, consider increasing the cake's stature with columns between the tiers. (A "stacked" wedding cake is one with its layers stacked straight atop each other, with no separators.)
Price It Out
- Wedding cake often is listed by the cut -- the price varies, but generally ranges from $1.50 to $15 per slice (though this is an extremely basic and loose estimation). The more complicated the wedding cake (predicated on intricate adornments or hard-to-find fillings), the bigger the price tag. Fondant icing is more expensive than buttercream, and if you would like elaborate molded patterns, vibrant colors, or handmade sugar-flower describing, you'll pay for the cake designer's labor.
Find Ways to Save
- Order a tiny cake that's furnished to efficiency but can only just feed a few plus several sheet cakes of the same flavour to actually feed the guests. Avoid tiers, handmade sugars flowers, and specially molded shapes. Garnish with seasonal flowers and fruit for an elegant (but less expensive) effect. If you'll have dessert stand (or another lovely) as well as the cake, consider a cake size for half your friends. Servings shall be smaller, but the cost will shrink too.
Get the reality on Frosting
- Fondant or buttercream? That's the primary question. Buttercream is much more delicious often. But if you love the smooth, almost surreal-like look of fondant approximately we do, consider frosting the cake in buttercream first and then adding a layer of fondant over the complete confection.
Consider the elements
- If you're having an outdoor wedding in a hot weather, stay away from whipped cream, meringue, and buttercream: They melt. Ask your baker about summertime icing options; You might want to get a fondant-covered wedding cake -- it doesn't even have to be refrigerated.
Mind Your Magazines
- Keep in mind, journals (like ours) have food stylists, editors, and assistants working nonstop to keep the cakes looking perfect. These communal people spend time fixing the sweating, dripping, leaning, or sagging that can occur to a wedding cake after it's been sitting for some time. If what they do doesn't work, it can be fixed by them with Photoshop. There is also the luxury of fabricating cakes from items that isn't edible -- most cakes in magazines are iced bits 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 in print
Take Note: It's All in the facts
- With regards to adornment, adornment costs run the gamut. The most inexpensive option is fruits or blossoms that, occasionally, can be employed from your florist for a minor fee. On the high end are delicate gum sweets or paste paste blossoms, which are built 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 improve the rate. (For the record, we think it's worthwhile the price!)
Encourage Cake Collaboration
- If you want to garnish your wedding cake with fresh blossoms, find out if the cake designer will continue to work with your florist, or if you are in charge of the blooms. In case the florist is running the show, will she have time to adorn the wedding cake? Be skeptical of elaborate floral accents if your reception space decoration is labor-intensive.
Get Him Involved!
- The popularity of the groom's wedding cake, traditionally a Southern custom, is on the rise. The bride's wedding cake -- the main one lower by the few at the reception -- is usually ingested as dessert. The groom's cake is usually darker and richer (often delicious chocolate) and nowadays built to show off of the groom's passions and obsessions. Give pieces to guests as a take-home memento or cut and provide both for dessert.
Go Mini?
- Many bakers concur that the idea of a mini cake (where each visitor gets his or her own) is a great idea -- theoretically but not always used. Not only does indeed each wedding cake require its own design (often as intricate, if not more, than one that's four times its size), each will demand its own package. Unfortunately, boxes don't come in mini-cake sizes. Usually the bakery must develop individual boxes where to move these cakes. Multiply by however many friends you will be having, and you will see just what a costly, time-consuming feat this actually is. That said, when you can swing it, they look amazing being passed around by waiters on sleek silver trays (and undoubtedly, they taste as great too).

Decide on a Style
- Cope with the wedding cake after all decisions about dress style and reception decor have been made. These elements can serve as a blueprint for the composition and design of your wedding cake. Choose a cake that's compatible with the style of the venue, the growing season, your gown, the flower arrangements, or the menu. If you'd like bright colored accents (such as sugar bouquets or icing ribbons), give your baker cloth swatches. The wedding cake should be part of the wedding, not a glaring sideshow.
Size It Up
- Generally, three tiers shall provide 50 to 100 guests; you will likely need five layers for 200 guests or more. In case the reception is at a grand room with high ceilings, consider increasing the cake's stature with columns between your tiers. (A "stacked" cake is one using its layers stacked straight atop one another, with no separators.)

The more difficult the cake (based on intricate accessories or hard-to-find fillings), the higher the high cost. Fondant icing is more expensive than buttercream, and if you would like elaborate molded figures, radiant colors, or handmade sugar-flower detailing, you'll pay for the cake designer's labor.
Find Methods to Save
- Order a small cake that's decorated to excellence but can only just feed a few plus several sheet cakes of the same flavor to actually supply the guests. Stay away from tiers, handmade glucose flowers, and molded shapes specially. Garnish with seasonal flowers and fruit for an elegant (but less costly) effect. If you will have a dessert table (or another lovely) as well as the cake, consider a cake sized for half your guests. Servings will be smaller, but the fee will shrink too.

- If you're having a patio wedding in a hot weather, stay away from whipped cream, meringue, and buttercream: They melt. Ask your baker about warmer summer months icing options; You might want to get a fondant-covered cake -- it doesn't even have to be refrigerated.
Mind Your Magazines
- Keep in mind, periodicals (like ours) have food stylists, editors, and assistants working nonstop to keep the cakes looking perfect. These social people spend hours repairing the sweating, dripping, leaning, or sagging that can occur to a cake after it's been sitting for some time. And if what they do fails, they can correct it with Photoshop. They also have the luxury of fabricating cakes from stuff that isn't edible -- most cakes in magazines are iced bits of Styrofoam, which certainly doesn't taste very good. So don't expect your wedding cake designer to be able to replicate precisely what you see on the net
Take Note: It's All in the Details
- With regards to design, adornment costs run the gamut. The most inexpensive option is fresh plants or fruits that, occasionally, can be employed from your florist for a minor fee. Within the high end are sensitive gum paste or sugars paste bouquets, which are built by hand, one petal at a right time. But here's the bottom line: All add-ons -- including marzipan fruits, chocolate-molded flowers, and lace points -- will raise the rate. (For the record, we think it's worthy of the price!)
Encourage Cake Collaboration
- If you want to garnish your wedding cake with fresh plants, find out if the wedding cake custom will work with your florist, or if you are accountable for the blooms. In the event the show has been run by the florist, will she have time to adorn the wedding cake? Be wary of complex floral accents if your reception space interior decoration is labor-intensive.
Get Him Involved!
- The popularity of the groom's wedding cake, traditionally a Southern custom, is increasing. The bride's wedding cake -- the one lower by the couple at the reception -- is customarily eaten as dessert. The groom's wedding cake is usually darker and richer (often chocolates) and nowadays crafted to show from the groom's passions and obsessions. Give pieces to friends as a take-home memento or lower and provide both for dessert.
