The bride and the groom are of course the center of attention in any wedding. Even so, you would want to have the right decorative touch to make your photo and video souvenirs worth looking at. Part of your wedding design plan is your wedding cake design. The wedding cake design will always be the center of attention at the reception regardless of your cake’s size and shape. The following are some important concerns to think of before picking a wedding cake design.
Complementary Piece
Your wedding, theme, colors, gowns and decorations are all a reflection of your personal taste. You should never forget however, that your wedding cake design is also part of your unified decoration. That being said, it can sometimes work to abandon the formalities and go with 'crazy wedding cakes'. The color, shape and decorations included in your wedding cake design should also therefore complement your theme. The trick is to plan all the other details of your wedding decorations, dresses and colors before choosing a wedding cake design. This will help you pick a design that will fit the whole picture.
The Ingredients
You may choose to have an experienced baker come up with your wedding cake design. You can also ask your wedding planner to take care of all the cake details or you can take care of the wedding cake design yourself. Whatever option you choose, it is not enough that you look into a portfolio or watch a cake making video. You should also know the different ingredients involved in cake making and how these can affect your whole wedding cake design.
Butter cream for example is the common choice for cake icing. You may however also use white margarine and fondant icing. The latter is a great choice if you want to have a smooth and elegant look. Aside from the wedding cake design however, you should also think about the flavor. Fondant may really look good but butter cream still tastes better. You should also look into the butter cream mix. Too much shortening will make the eating experience a greasy one.
Number of Guests
Your wedding cake design should also depend on the number of guests you have and if you have prepared other deserts. Do you want all your guests to have a piece of the cake? Will you be serving other sweet items to them? You may not need a five tier cake if you are serving other deserts or if you have very few guests. You should however prepare a wedding cake design with multiple tiers if you would like a hundred or more guests to have a piece of your cake.
Time Frame
It will take months to execute a complicated wedding cake design. If you didn’t know this and you only have a short time left, then you should go for a simple wedding cake design.
Budget
The wedding budget is almost always a part of wedding cake design concerns. You can have a great wedding cake design that will not cost much if you simply have sponge cake. The excellent alternative for on budget is to have 'crazy wedding cakes'. You can then spend more on icing and cake decorations. You should also try to compute if you will be able to save on your wedding cake design by serving other deserts and just going for a smaller and simpler cake.
