Bold Brides
This season modern brides are embracing bright, bold colors when it comes to the design of their wedding cakes.

Shifting Shapes
Three-tiered cakes are no longer the way to go, currently brides are mixing and matching forms – square, octagonal and hexagonal confections are all gaining in popularity, particularly with more contemporary brides.

Imitating the Invitations
How far will some brides actually go to match every aspect of their wedding perfectly? Apparently all the way down to the last slice… more and more brides are incorporating elements from their invitations in their wedding cake designs.

Double Dessert
Have your cake served as part of the dessert display, this way you can save on the menu price and guests will definitely sample that beautifully crafted cake!  And having a few take-away boxes handy is just the thing this summer – your guests will LOVE you for it : after-wedding cake!

Something Blue
You may have something old, something new and something borrowed but if you’re short on something blue then let your cake step into the gap. Ice blue, aqua blue, in fact any subtle shade of blue wedding cake is in for the 2010 / 2011 season.

Sophisticated Monograms (a design of one or more letters, usually your initials)
Monograms inevitably lend a tasteful and signatory style to your wedding and this season definitely heralds the trend of the monogrammed wedding cake. It not only adds a classic look to your wedding but also ups your own signatory style.

Fresh and Fluffy
Fresh flowers continue to be a popular accessory to wedding cakes. Unfussy, simple flowers and blooms are replacing the more traditional, often frivolous flowers of the past; the fashionable favourites of the day include orchids, calla lilies and tulips. And don’t forget the rose…
