Without a doubt, weddings are one of the most traditional ceremonies performed in the world. If you want to individualize your ceremony without veering too far from tradition, you might want to try your hand at a custom-made wedding cake. Like everything else about your wedding ceremony, your wedding cake should reflect you personal style and fit into your wedding theme. If you think cake decorator have one type of wedding cake that they offer, you are in a big surprise. While a cake decorator will carry a certain line of cakes for weddings, they usually take special requests. You are basically free to design a wedding cake that you want.

A traditional wedding cake is vanilla with white frosting. There are usually several tiers, which decrease in size as you reach the top of the wedding cake. The traditional wedding cake features roses or other flowers as its only decoration. Of course, a mini plastic bride and groom figurine tops the wedding cake. A traditional wedding cake is about as simple as you can get. In fact, many cake decorators keep a set of these on hand in their freezers.   

Do you or the groom have a favorite flavor of cake that is not the traditional white wedding cake? Well, have the cake decorator make your wedding cake with that flavor. If you don’t have a particular flavor of cake or if you have several, you might want to have your wedding cake made with a variety of flavors. Some flavors that are common for a wedding cake include chocolate, lemon, and carrot. You may also want to try adding a filling to your wedding cake.

Decorations are another way that you can customize your wedding cake. Instead of flower petals you may want to get creative and think of an unusual way to frost your wedding cake. If your wedding cake features a light color, you could use a dark icing, such as chocolate to outline the wedding cake.

Once you decide how you want your wedding cake to look and taste, you will need to find a cake decorator to build it for you. Making a wedding cake is no simple job. Unless someone comes to you highly recommended, you should see a decorator’s portfolio before hiring them to make your wedding cake. Cake decorators are usually very busy so you want to find a decorator very early in your wedding plans so that they can have time to design and make your wedding cake.

Cutting the wedding cake on the wedding day is one of the most important parts of the wedding ceremony. To match the wedding theme, it is very essential to choose the right cake for the wedding banquet so that it matches well. Design of the wedding cake is an important aspect to consider if you really want to get the attention of your guests.

Reflect your personality:

Your personality gets reflected with the unique wedding cake topper and this is one great way to impress the guests at the wedding party. Adding personalized wedding cake toppers is a great idea if you want to customize your wedding cake. Grandparents and parents did things traditionally many years back, but in current times, we find that couples prefer doing things and making preparations that are unique and different and apart from what were done in the past.

You can add grace and some extra style to your wedding cake by adding a personalized wedding cake topper. The first thing is to understand what a wedding cake topper exactly is. Basically a wedding cake topper is a display, traditionally a set of figurines or a figurine, that is placed on top of the wedding cake. At the wedding party the guests can also be given the wedding cake topper as a keepsake.

Customizing the cake topper:

It is a great idea to personalize the wedding cake topper. It is for this reason that a new idea makes the wedding very unique. A number of local and international professional artists are available who provide variations and themed designs that you may want to pick from as the cake topper. If the groom has a passion for sports, then you can have a traditional design for the bride figurine, while the groom can be dressed in a sports outfit, which is able to reflect his passion for sports. In the traditional line of thought, the couples first nicknames or names were engraved on a glass paperweight which made the wedding cake topper. At times even a ceramic castle took the form of a topper for the wedding cake. Two elegant swans embracing each other also represented the couple and their holy bond in matrimony.

At the wedding reception, the wedding cake will certainly be given a second look with the right topper in place. Guests at the wedding would love to take pictures of the cake topper just to remember the event they attended. A unique wedding cake topper will surely make the event a day to be remembered. Custom handmade figurines are very popular these days. If you shop online you will find that there are lots of wedding cake topper designs available, but almost all designers offer to create one out of your own fantasy or passion to make the wedding day a memorable event. The latest craze in town is to make personalized wedding cake toppers from handmade figurines. These surely make the right impression and also help to send out strong social messages.

On the wedding day, the personalized wedding cake toppers are by far one of the most viewed and photographed elements. Your guests at the wedding party are sure to get impressed with the personalized wedding cake topper.

A wedding is never complete without a wedding cake. This is one of the highlights of a wedding reception. The bigger it is, the grander the wedding reception seems. But have you ever wondered where the tradition of wedding cakes came from?

Wedding Cakes in the Olden Times

Wedding cakes are said to have come from the great Roman Empire. Before cakes and icings were invented, wedding cakes were usually loaves of barley bread made especially for that occasion. The groom will eat a piece of the loaf and break the remaining loaf over the head of his bride. This signifies the groom’s breaking of the virginal condition of the bride and his subsequent power and control over her.

Medieval England’s version of a wedding cake is little sweet buns stacked high in front of the couple. The newlywed would then kiss over this huge pile. If done successfully, then it is said that the couple will have many children to come.

Wedding Cakes and Guests

The bride’s pie was very popular during the 17th century. This is usually made up of sweet breads, mutton pie or mince pie that is to be shared by the guests. What makes this interesting is the glass ring that is hidden inside the pie. The lady who finds it is said to be the next one to marry.

The bride will pass a piece of cake through her wedding ring and distribute it among their guests. It was said that whoever sleeps with this piece of wedding cake under their pillow will see their future partners in their dreams.

White as the Color of Most Wedding Cakes

White has become a special color of wedding cakes for very obvious reasons as white signifies purity. But for practical reasons, most wedding cakes during the Victorian period were white not because it signifies purity but because ingredients for a colored icing were difficult to obtain. As refined sugar is its main ingredient, the whiter the wedding cake is, the more prosperous the family seems.

Modern Wedding Cakes

The cutting of the wedding cake is a tradition that we have witnessed a dozen times. The bride is the one who cuts the cake aided by the groom. Then they would feed each other a piece of cake from that first slice of the wedding cake. This symbolizes their commitment to one another and the promise that they would provide for each other. It is also said that the bigger the piece of cake fed to each other, the larger number of children that they will have in the future.

White is still the favorite color of the couple for their wedding cake, but other colors have been used as well to match the wedding gown or the motif of the wedding. Although single-layer wedding cakes are still popular, it is quickly being replaced by multi-tiered wedding cakes of two or even three layers. More detailed and elaborate designs are also seen in wedding cakes, adding elegance and unique personal touch to the wedding.

Chocolate Wedding Cake

Chocolate wedding cakes, icing wedding cakes, fruit wedding cakes, or any other wedding cake . . . each should be a beautiful work of art. Your wedding cake will be the first and longest lasting impression your guests will have of your special day! Creating the perfect wedding cake is not easy. Every bride wants to know that her wedding cake will be exactly the way she always imagined.

Your wedding cake will be crafted by hand, using only the finest ingredients, so why not supply us with your ideas and let us create a unique bespoke wedding cake for your special wedding day? The pictures on our website are only an example of the many chocolate, icing and fruit wedding cake designs we can create. If any of these wedding cake pictures attract you, we can of course change the flowers, colours and decoration to coordinate with your individual wedding theme.

Your wedding cake can be filled with whatever you desire, such as chocolate. Your wedding cake filling can vary depending on your taste. You can even create your own filling, or choose different fillings for each tier of your wedding cake. Gone are the days when the only choice you had was a fruit wedding cake.

We can make up a chocolate wedding cake to perfectly suit your individual needs. Chocolate wedding cakes are very popular with many brides and grooms who want something different for their wedding. We bake a delicious moist chocolate wedding cake, which is filled with a chocolate filling and tastes divine. Chocolate wedding cakes make great desserts that you can either serve on their own or with fresh fruit and cream. You can choose a chocolate cake, which is decorated in fondant for a traditional feel, or for chocoholics, have it decorated with a choice of milk, white or dark chocolate. Or, why not have all three?

If you have a chocolate or any other wedding cake design to discuss, please feel free to phone one of our staff to discuss your wedding cake requirements. Most wedding cakes are made up within two weeks, but if you have a special requirement, please try to give our bakers enough time to complete your order perfectly.

Alternatively, all our wedding cakes can be seen and tasted at our Regent Street, Knightsbridge and High Street Kensington branches. Why not drop in for a taste of something special and discuss your wedding cake requirements?
