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.

  • 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.

    • Sugar Paste Flowers Don't forget about handmade sugar paste flowers—they have a delicate, porcelain finish. Lace can also be made in this manner. View samples.

    • Hand-crafted marzipan fruit and flowers can create exquisite detail. View samples.

    • Fresh flowers add beauty and a splash of color to wedding cakes. For a sophisticated touch, sugared flowers are another excellent choice. View samples.

    • Fresh fruit: sliced peaches, clusters of grapes, sliced kiwi, fresh berries! This is especially delectable with white chocolate cheesecake. View samples.

    • Sugared fruit & flowers give a frosted or fantasy quality to the finished product and add a beautiful crystal texture.
