When choosing a wedding cake the bride has to decide the colors, shape, flavor, frosting, border, and number of tiers. The cake designer then takes that information and vuala you have a masterpiece.
Colors. The colors chosen for the cake are usually the colors of the wedding. The most popular wedding colors of the year are tangerine orange and pink. Those colors would make up the outside of the cake.
Shape. Square or circle, or circle and square? Most cakes are made up of these shapes but definitely not limited to them. The most popular shape of the year is the circle. Many cakes are made up of different sizes of circles on each level.
Flavor. Chocolate devil's food cake. This is the most popular because of the richness of the taste. In second place: yellow butter cake. And in third: lemon cake.
Frosting. Fondant or buttercream? Buttercream is more popular out of the two because it is creamy and smooth in texture. It is very easily flavored and colored to meet the wants of every bride.
Border. Different brides like different things, but borders that most brides like are ribbon and piping. Ribbon is chosen to accessorize the cake and piping is chosen to make a more classic looking cake.
Number of tiers. The more the merrier. That's what brides are saying today. Before 2012 cakes with three tiers were popular. However, now tall cakes are in.
The cake is the centerpiece of a wedding so it needs to be attractive. On the other hand, it is the dessert too. With the new cake trends of 2012 you can have both a cute and tasty cake!
