Wedding Cake Topper
|
In the United Kingdom, the traditional wedding cake is made from a rich fruitcake, although many modern cakes now consist of either vanilla sponge, chocolate sponge or carrot cake. Most cakes are between three and five tiers in height, and often consist of 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 of guests.
Another trend is for wedding cupcakes, which can save on cost in some ways and can be seem as more quirky. To imitate the tiers of a wedding cake, the cupcakes are placed on a structured stand and decorated in the main wedding theme colors.
Wedding cakes can also be decorated with live flowers, to complement the venue decorations.
