Your options
Although white cake with white frosting will always remain a traditional and popular option, today's wedding cakes are bound only by the imagination.
The creation of a wedding cake is nothing short of a culinary art, wherein texture, color and shape can play as important a role as taste. It's up to the bride and groom how these elements fit together, and inspiration may be found in a piece of china, the fabric of the bride's dress, or the theme of the event itself.
Another opportunity for personalization is the groom's cake. It started primarily as a Southern tradition, but is gaining popularity throughout North America. Often designed to reflect the groom's personality, it can take the shape of a hobby, favorite sports team or even his profession. The groom's cake can be a fun way to add a touch of whimsy to your reception, or it can be designed to coordinate with the wedding cake, keeping with an elegant theme and providing a sense of unity.
The options you have to consider may seem overwhelming, but breaking them down into simple choices will make selecting your cake, from flavor to decorative embellishments, a pleasure. Whether there is something specific you have in mind, or you need to be guided through the decision making-process, you're sure to end up with a cake that fits you perfectly.
