Designer Wedding Cakes

A beautiful wedding cake is an essential and traditional part of any wedding ceremony and Designer Wedding Cakes are an extravagant but fantastic way of celebrating the style and theme of your big day.

Wedding cakes can be individually crafted to suit even the most outlandish ideas with just about any ingredient preferred by the bride and groom. If you have absolutely no idea of what type of cake to have but want it to be special and the centrepiece of the wedding reception table you will need to enlist the help of a professional cake makers who specialise in designer wedding cakes. They will be able to give you expert advice and help you make up your mind as to what type of wedding cakes would suit you.

You can let your imagination run wild when thinking of ideas for your cake and there is no need whatsoever to stick to traditional three tiered fruitcakes. Companies that make designer wedding cakes will create a cake just how you tell them too whether it is intricate and elegant sugar flowers or themed novelty figures of the happy couple.

You can also opt for tiered arrangement of fairy cakes which will make sharing them amongst your guests a lot easier although this may mean you will not be able to cut the cake in the traditional way unless you still include one of the tiers as a solid sponge cake. Fairy wedding cakes would not really be classed as designer wedding cakes and would probably suit a less formal wedding.

Most wedding cake designers will be happy to give you a full consultation and provide you with a free sampling to help you make up your mind. Before you go ahead and place an order check out various wedding and bridal magazines and go online in order to get quotes from various places and ideas for designer wedding cakes. This will ensure you also are getting the best deal for your money.

The best way to decide is based on recommendations so ask around your family and friends as they may be able to recommend the best cake designers to you.

Designer wedding cakes do not come cheap and you should always consider the cost when shopping around and more importantly who will be footing the bill. Traditionally it is the bride's parents who pay for the wedding but these days this is far less an expected occurrence. If your parents are indeed paying for the cost of the cake and it is your intention to shop for designer wedding cakes then it is only fair that you include them in considering which cake to buy an offer to pay yourself for any excess expense as designer wedding cakes can easily cost hundreds of dollars.
