Cupcake Wedding Cakes

 

A photograph of a tiered wedding cake made up of cupcakesI just love these cute little cakes. I think a cupcake wedding cake is a fun and totally original way to do present your wedding cake.

The great thing about cupcake wedding cakes is you can design and create a style of cake that totally reflects your personality, the theme of your wedding or is completely colour coordinated.

Cupcake wedding cakes can be very delicately adorned in soft pastel colours, dark gooey and down right chocolately or a mad assortment of all thing bright and colourful the choice is yours.

Cupcake Flavours

Not only do you have a choice over your decoration you can also chose your cake sponge flavor. They range from vanilla, chocolate, lemon, carrot and coffee or maybe you just can’t decide and you opt for a selection of all of them.

Decorating Your Cupcakes

You can choice to have all your cupcakes made exactly the same, the same colour decoration or embellishments. You can opt for a colour theme and have them decorated differently. The choice is vast and if you start looking into the different selections of sprinkles it’s too exciting for words. If you haven’t gathered I am a complete fan of this type of wedding cake, so much so that I’m planning to have a cupcake wedding cake next year at our wedding!

Choosing Your Cake Baker

Of course the other thing is to get them made by one of the family. I’m not a fan of stressing brides out days before their wedding so I wouldn’t advise baking your own unless of course it’s your thing and your going to find it relaxing and enjoyable. But if you’ve got a family member who is a fantastic cake maker they might be up for the challenge. Whoever you find to make your cupcake wedding cakes make sure you get a taster sample first.

Cupcake Trees

Once you’ve decided on the type and flavor of your cupcakes make sure you don’t forget to think about the stand. These are often referred to as cupcake tree’s, the perfect way to display your delightful little cakes. Many professional cake bakers offer a hire option but they are also on sale on the Internet.
