Wedding Cake

Modern adaptations
Wedding cake toppers are small models that sit on top the cake, normally a representation a bride and groom in formal wedding attire. This custom was dominant in US wedding in the 1950s where it represented the concept togetherness. Wedding toppers today are ten figures that indicate shared hobbies or other passions.
In the United Kingdom, the traditional wedding cake is made from a rich fruitcake, although many modern cakes now consist either vanilla sponge, chocolate sponge or carrot cake. Most cakes are between three and five tiers in height, and ten consist a bottom tier made from sponge, with a chocolate sponge middle tier and a fruit top tier. Among some more elaborate cakes the United Kingdom see are those prepared for the Royal Weddings. These cakes are actually decorated boxes with the fruit cake cut into portions on the inside, allowing them to be easily served to hundreds guests.
