Create Your Wedding Cake—Make it Unique!


From the icing to the fillings...there are many ways to create a cake that's elegant, traditional or contemporary. These cake samples demonstrate some of the unique suggestions below.  Be patient...there are a lot of pictures!

  • Icing and more: To top it all off, your cake can be frosted with a sweet, rich butter cream, a light and airy whipped icing, or a smooth and elegant fondant. Ruffles, swirls, weaves or lace designs in any color add another element of beauty and interest to your cake.

    • Marzipan and gum paste - Don't forget about handmade gum paste flowers and marzipan fruit.  Both add unique touches that will make your cake personal.
