One of the most important events for any couple would be their wedding. This is the beginning of a new journey for the both of them and their wedding day is when they exchange vows to love and cherish and stick with each other through the tests of time. That is why it is just fair to make this event memorable for the couple. Every detail of the wedding should be perfectly planned and one thing that should not be missed is their cake. Wedding cakes have been a part of every wedding as this symbolizes a charm for their good fortune for their happy married life and fertility to produce beautiful kids.
Getting married is definitely a big day for couples, especially for women. As most people say, women only get married once and this big day should really be unforgettable and really one of a kind. Preparation for this day starts months before as the couple should look for the perfect venue, fit their gowns and the groom’s clothing, decide who will be included in their entourage, create their souvenirs and invitations, distribute their invitation cards, and of course, find the perfect catering service and wedding cakes.
There are several kinds of wedding cakes that a couple can choose from. Couples can also find a design they want to match the personality of both of them. Different sizes and tiers are also available depending on what they want. Couples can choose from white cakes, chocolate flavored cakes, marble cakes, lemon cakes, and carrot cakes. For most weddings, white cakes or vanilla flavored cakes are preferred.
When it comes to frosting, couples can choose from buttercream frosting, fondant, gum paste, and royal icing. The most common frosting used before was the butter cream frosting which, of course, tastes buttery and sweet. If the couple wants a more smooth finish for their frosting, then they should opt for fondant wedding cakes. At present, this is the most in-demand type of cakes or frosting as this gives it a perfect satiny finish compared to other frostings and the colors for this kind are lighter.
Apart from the flavor and frostings, the design of the cake can be personalized. Couples can decide if it will be a simple 1-layer cake or tiered cake. They can also opt for a different shape depending on their want. For most couples, how their wedding cake looks is important as this is one of the highlights of the event.
