Choosing a Wedding Cake

Modern Wedding Posted: January 11, 2013

Our guest bride blogger Alicia is on the countdown to her wedding day on 2nd February. Today she shares with us her wedding cake journey.

Red Velvet Wedding Cake

Who would have thought that choosing a wedding cake would be so difficult?!

While I insist that I am not a fussy bride, it has by now become quite apparent that I do love all the options and the details that are out there (and I have had a few mind blow-outs trying to make a decision)! When you love beautiful things, love throwing parties and love cooking then you may find yourself maing hard decisions about tiers and frosting!

How did you (or would you) choose your wedding cake?  Was it not a big deal to you? Was it the size, flavour, colour? Or did you do as I hoped I would, and just pick something nice and move on.

If you find yourself caught in the quagmire of tiers and frosting, check out the Modern Wedding Cakes magazine, Modern Wedding cake gallery or my Pinterest ‘Cakes’  http://pinterest.com/alicial1999/cake/ for more inspiration.

Oh, and happy tasting!
