Create Unusual Wedding Cake Designs

The wedding cake can be a very important part of the wedding for most couples (or should I say brides?) Among all the decisions that will have to be made, this is one you can decide on early to get it out of the way and thus have one less thing to worry about. Finding or creating unusual wedding cake designs can be fun to do and does not have to be a headache.

Some designs are pretty standard with a few variations like a traditional or classic wedding cake. I would suggest you start looking through bridal magazines as soon as the date is set. Tear out any pictures of cakes you like and put them all in a file. You can then pick and choose or mix and match. Take for instance the shape of one cake and add it to all the other elements of another cake. Or use one decorating theme with another shape cake. Use different flowers, fruit and decorations until you find the perfect fit for your unusual wedding cake design.

If however you would like to have something different, something unique, something you, you will have to take the abovementioned steps a bit further. I have seen so many unusual wedding cake designs and loved the originality. Once you have all the elements you would like to have in your cake design, start selecting the ones you like best and draw the cake on a sheet of paper and no, you do not have to be an artist to be able to do this. It will just give you an idea of what you want.

The next step will be to discuss your ideas with the person who will be making your wedding cake or a cake designer if you can afford one. Or maybe you would like to make your own wedding cake. My daughter knew exactly what she wanted and decided to make the seven layer very unusual, beautiful wedding cake herself. She selected four different flavors for the layers that consisted of cheesecake, a decadent chocolate mousse, a key lime pie and a lemon meringue pie. We incorporated the help of family-to-be and close friends by having them taste the different layers and determining which ones would be used.

Make sure you take the time to get used to the whole baking, building and decorating of the cake beforehand. This turned into a low cost, unusually spectacular cake! Hopefully these ideas will get your creative juices flowing to create your own unusual cake design. Not only can you save a lot of money but you can also have the satisfaction of doing it yourself and having something truly unique.
