The classic bride is one whose personal style is understated, polished and timeless. Whose ideal wedding is traditional and filled with beautifully crafted, fine details and accents. The reception venue is, perhaps, an elegant country club or a traditional marquee set in a beautifully landscaped garden. A superb choice of wedding cake decor, one that would suit a classic wedding perfectly, is the sweetly sophisticated swiss dot. We love the hint of nostalgia that a swiss dot cake evokes. There's something so romantic about it too. Yet, as shown in the picture, right, swiss dots can also be used in a way that is sleek, minimalist and contemporary. (We love that tiered, square cake by Collette Foley.)
Whilst a creamy white icing is the most traditional colour for a swiss dot cake, we have seen some gorgeous pastel confections too, with the icing in one colour and the dots in a contrasting hue.
