Want your cake to be up-to-the-minute trendy? Here are some ideas to help your wedding cake on its way to becoming de rigueur:
- You don't have to stick to wedding specific trends. If you have a trend you've taken a shine to in another aspect of your life, find a way to incorporate that into your cake. Look at the monogram -- it went from bath towels to wedding cakes and invitations with ease!
- Take a cue from color. Wedding cakes don't all have to be white. If you're using a beautiful shade of pink in your wedding, you can have pink icing. Consider keeping the cake color muted and using brighter accents to give it a real kick.
- Enlarge your accessories for greater effect. A few pretty little daisies will be lovely on top of your cake. One BIG one will make a much bigger impression. Try outrageous faux florals for a cake sure to stand out.
- Think of the Mad Hatter's tea party. Even if the rest of your wedding is really traditional, you can add a little whimsy with the shape of your cake. Mix it up with a variety of shapes and sizes. As long as it's sturdy, the final look should be up to you!
