Wedding cake???

Postby aug20-11 » Tue May 17, 2011 8:46 am

Hi there, :bluewave I'm finding it really hard to pick out a wedding cake design that both me and H2B like! So I told him lastnight that I am just going to order one similar to a design I've seen on the internet. Would like your opinions on this please.



Im going seperate the top three tiers onto a stand (a tier on each stand) What do you think?

Fab cake - very funky, wouldn't put it on stands though, think it would ruin it personally and make a modern funky cake old fashioned, it will totally take the look off it, think it's fab as is :)

Fab design . . . about the stands - I kinda agree with mallow

My hubby just cared what flavours / fillings we had nothing to do with the outside lol

Hi Mallow, that's exactly what I was thinking about, but we would have to get a fruit/chocolate biscuit cake for the base and both of us hate them! (one thing we agree on!) I'm going to meet the baker tomorrow morning and will see what he come up with. I'm hoping it wouldn't be too bad if he has the right stands so as it looks like the tiers are stacked on top of eachother (I hope :fingerscrossed). Ya see it's never straight forward :banghead !!!! Thanks

You do not have to pick fruit or choc biscuit for bottom, any type of cakes can be stacked in any order. I agree it would ruin the look of that cake to have it on separate stands.

With the proper support, which any experienced cake maker should be able to do, you can stack any combination of cake flavours.
