Decorative Wedding Cake Ideas

Posted on by

There are a million and one ways to decorate a wedding cake. However here are a few more traditional ideas that you may not have thought of in a while.
It is very traditional for wedding cakes to be decorated with edible pearls. Edible pearls are not anything fancy. They are simply tiny balls of fondant that have been rolled into tiny balls. They are then dusted with real edible pearl dust to give them their solid and shiny appearance. Real edible pearl dust can be bought online and eating it is supposed to have the same effects on a man as Viagra. Interestingly pearl dust is also sometimes sprinkled into glasses of poured champagne at weddings to make the drink less acidic and give it an unearthly glow.

It is very hip to eat foods just as they were described in the Bible and Saffron Wedding Cake is derived from a recipe in the Bible originally referred to as a lover’s cake made out of Saffron. For centuries saffron is not only known as an aphrodisiac but as a spice its orange threads are thought to draw fertility and prosperity to whoever consumes it. However it came to represent wealth simply because the spice was originally so expensive to procure from India.

Aside from the saffron threads which turn the cake batter a golden yellow, the cake’s recipe also calls for currant, nutmegs, raisins and lemons which have been traditional ingredients in wedding fruit cakes for centuries as well.

Pink Champagne wedding cake is actually a 100-year-old tradition. The cake was invented during the roaring twenties and it is basically a white cake in which all of the liquids (like water or milk) have been replaced by pink champagne. This gives the cake a distinctive and celebratory flavor.

In fact to make it at home all you have to do is buy a white cake mix and simply substitute pink champagne or even a rose for the liquids specified in the baking instructions. The frosting is also easily made out of butter, sugar, milk and champagne as well. The cake never naturally turns out pink so a few drops of red food coloring are added to the frosting to give it a delicate pastel rose hue.

If you are Prince Charming and she is your Cinderella bride then you will definitely want to look into the wedding cakes that are shaped like castles. Palace themed wedding cakes also suit people who are having the literal “fairy-tale” wedding such as a medieval wedding or the Elvin style of wedding.
