While it is still traditional to have a wedding cake, the nature of these cakes are changing. Due to the exorbitant cost of wedding cakes in this day and age and the desire to keep up with current trends, we have moved away from the traditional fruitcake to make way for new takes on wedding cakes.
Here are a few cake trends that we can’t get enough of:
Semi-naked
Naked cakes seem to be a trend of the past but the semi-naked is still very much in.
Drip cake
Drip cakes have been around for quite a while now, because it can be added to pretty much any style of cake and still look good. It also adds extra flavour and an element of fun.
Metallic
A metallic element can be added in a variety of ways, making this a continuous trend.
Red velvet
Red velvet as a flavour has become one of the most popular dessert options so it is not surprising that it has made its way to wedding cakes as well.
Florals
A beautiful and natural addition to any cake.
Alternatives
While this cake makes use of another trend, doughnuts, as an alternative to a wedding cake, there are other alternative options such as macaroons, croquembouche and if you’re not a cake lover, cheese.
