Fall Wedding Cakes Be Made of Chocolate

Maybe it's the non-traditional wedding date. Perhaps it's the heady rush of the fall season, with colorful leaves and crisp breezes urging couples to make unusual wedding decisions. Whatever the cause, chocolate is becoming one of the most popular cakes for a fall wedding. (Yes, even the frosting can be chocolate!)

Traditionally, cakes at weddings are plain vanilla and white. But within the last couple of decades, modern brides have started to get their own ideas about how their Fall Wedding Cakes should or should not be made. Over time, chocolate cakes have become more acceptable for weddings, and today, they are a hugely popular alternative (probably because so many people LOVE chocolate cake). Modern fall brides are starting to abandon traditional white wedding cakes in favor of a more delicious, decadent treat for their guests.

Brides-to-be who decide to have a chocolate wedding cake at their wedding will discover a host of new options, like using chocolate truffles as an embellishment on the cake, and various unusual frosting flavors. Imagine dark chocolate fall wedding cakes with key lime frosting on the inside and a hard chocolate shell covering on the outside! Yum, everyone would remember that cake for a very long time.

(We keep saying "cakes" because many people these days will have a miniature cake to keep for themselves, for their anniversary. Some brides even have a small "table cake" for each table.)

Any professional cake baker should be able to create almost any kind of fall wedding cakes you can imagine. Don't be afraid to ask what is possible! Your day is very special, so make it uniquely you.
