Ideas on Wedding Cakes


At Home Wedding Cake.
A towering, sugar-flower-heaped wedding cake seems out of place at a quiet, at-home wedding. Trade it in for several small, simple cakes displayed on cute cake stands.
Leftovers.
Tie a ribbon around your top layer when you stick it in the freezer―that way you won't mistake it for leftovers. Constantly opening and resealing the cake could cause it to spoil.

Size Does Matter.
Order a square wedding cake to save money. It'll yield more slices than a traditional round one

Layers are sinking!.
If your wedding cake starts to suffer on a hot summer day, immediately put it in the reception site's freezer or on ice. The chill will firm it right up.

How much cake do you really need?
Not every guest will eat cake at your wedding. Some will leave before the cake-cutting, others will be on a diet. If you're inviting 175 people, you'll probably only need a cake that serves 150.

Deliver the Cake.
To avoid a delivery charge, assign someone to pick up the cake rather than having your baker do it. Ask which designs are easiest to transport and set up, and if she'll pack it up for you.
