We all know that traditional wedding cake: vanilla buttercream with flowers, piped frosting, and a cute cake topper. However, not all cakes need to fit that mold. Bakeries now have so many flavors to choose from and so many designs! So be sure to think about what your cake will look like, not just what it will taste like.
The number of tiers depends on how much cake you need. Are you having multiple dessert options? Are you thinking of serving sheet cake to save some money? Do you even enjoy cake? Then get a one-tiered cake for the photos. Hosting an intimate gathering? A two or three-tiered cake will suffice. For bigger fetes and better photo ops, four or even five-tier will be stunning!
Once you're set on size and selected your flavor(s), you can think about design!
Round or square edges?
Flowers or icing for decoration?
Cake topper or something else?
Any colored elements like paint or icing?
Fondant or buttercream?
These are some of the questions to think about and discuss with your bakery. A quick Pinterest search will give plenty of options and you can scroll until you've found some inspiration to show them.
