The cake is quite often the thing most people look forward to at a wedding celebration<\/a>. After all, it\u2019s not a reception without a cake cutting ceremony! These days though there are so many options for cakes. You can have red velvet, lemon meringue, chocolate, marble, carrot, or maybe traditional vanilla. Others may choose to divert from the traditional cake, choosing cupcakes, truffles, chocolate confections, cookies, or a dessert buffet (for those who just can\u2019t decide!). With all these options how does one even begin?<\/p>\n

1. Search for the Right Bakery<\/p>\n

Choosing a bakery is tough. It can be even tougher if you have a special need \u2013 glucose-free, lactose-free, vegan, Kosher, organic, etc. Luckily more bakeries are becoming aware of allergies or special needs and offer delicious alternatives.\u00a0 Do a quick search for a cake designer in your area who makes a product to your specification.<\/p>\n

2. Choose Your Style<\/p>\n

Are you a cupcake fan? Or are you a chocolate lover at heart? Or does a traditional tiered wedding cake<\/a> tickle your fancy? Cupcake towers are becoming more and more popular at birthdays, weddings, baby showers, and more. This takes the hassle out of cutting the cake into equal-sized pieces! Cakes can come in all shapes and sizes these days. Bakeries and cake designers can sculpt a cake into a castle, sports arena, animal, musical instrument, and anything else you can come up with! You can go this route for a birthday cake to match the cake with the birthday person\u2019s favourite hobby. A designer\u2019s ability to do this also is beneficial for groom\u2019s cakes. A dessert buffet is always a fun route to go, as well. You can have all your favourite goodies in one place from a chocolate fountain and truffles to fruit tart and pastries.<\/p>\n

3. Find Your Filling<\/p>\n

Whether you go with a cake or cupcakes, you then must decide the type, filling, and frosting. So many decisions! However, this is where the yummy part begins \u2013 cake tastings! On top of the type of cake, such as red velvet, chocolate, or carrot, you also have the option of having a filling. Fillings can be in the form of fruit, mousse, and cream cheese, just to name a few. Schedule a tasting with your baker to decide which one is just right for you.<\/p>\n

Above all, have fun with your cake! A little indulgence never hurt anyone, especially on a day of celebration!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
