Cake Ideas to Steal
What’s on the Inside Counts
Who says the outside of your wedding cake should have all the fun? Let the inside take center stage with vibrant colors (like these red velvet slices) and even striped layers.
The More the Merrier
What could be better than a gorgeous cake on your dessert table? Three gorgeous cakes, of course! Instead of one larger confection, consider offering multiple cakes in smaller sizes.
Add Fresh Flowers
Give your cake a garden-fresh look by adorning it with lush blooms in colors that match your palette.
Shrink it Down
These days, couples have been opting out of the traditional wedding cake in favor of bite-sized cupcakes. Elevate them by displaying on a tiered tray, or embellish them with sparkling sprinkles like we did here.
Update a Classic
Put a fresh spin on a tried-and-true favorite to make your cake a crowd-pleasing standout, like this minty grasshopper cake, served with delicious milkshakes.
Forget the Icing
For an all-natural wedding cake look, skip the outer frosting and let the confection’s layers peek through. Top with fresh flowers or fruit to make it pop.
Try a New Material
Venture off the beaten path with a “non-cakey” cake. This tall-tiered treat is made with whisper-thin crepes and can be layered with mouthwatering fillings like chestnut, espresso, chocolate, or vanilla cream.
Offer Individual Servings
Not quite cakes, and not quite cupcakes, these single-serving treats are fun alternatives to the traditional wedding dessert. Be sure to have small boxes on
hand so guests can take home extras.
Keep it Cool
These refreshing mini sorbet “cakes” are a great option for a hot summer wedding and oh so refreshingly cool. The best part is that your guests ill enjoy their own individual sampling.
