Wedding Cakes Fresh Flowers
Wedding cakes suddenly look more romantic and fashionable when adorned with flowers. You can choose from different types of flowers to place on the tiers: edible, fresh or artificial. All three options are feasible and trendy. But you have to consider your wedding budget before making the final choice. Fresh flowers are easy to purchase by both rich and economical brides. The edible blooms are a bit more expensive but extremely beautiful.
If you want a fashionable look, consider edible floral decorations for your cake. You can buy pre-made floral accents from any bakery or make your own at home. It depends on your budget and talent. Edible decorations look fabulous on white cakes. They always attract the attention of the public and inspire them for their pictures. Use real flowers if you want to obtain a more authentic and natural look. The flowers can be arranged in various ways. You can place them on the top layer as a bouquet topper, or you can scatter them on each tier for a more romantic look. Use only petals or buds if you care for a more simplistic yet elegant look.

Flowers are an integrant part of a wedding. They are used for the bride and bridal party bouquets, for the boutonnieres and corsages, for the ceremony and reception décor, but also for wedding cakes. Brides who love floral themes can consider fresh blooms for a thematic wedding cake. There are a few important aspects to consider when putting real flowers on a cake, however. The first and most important thing is to learn more about toxicity of flowers. Ask a florist or cake maker if the flowers you wish to incorporate in your cake are safe to use or not. Your cake designer should be able to tell you if the project you want is feasible. In case the blooms you like are toxic, your baker can use plastic holders to keep the stems away from direct contact with the cake.
This is one of the many reasons for why so many couples prefer to use fabric blooms and decorations for their cake. The effect is just as beautiful, but this is a personal choice. The cascading style is one of the most popular when it comes to wedding cakes with flowers. You can use orchids, roses or calla lilies to create this design. These flowers are lavish and they can look extremely romantic when arranged this way. Use cherry blossoms and vines for a spring cake and a charming look. Use a bouquet of your favorite flowers you’ve also used for your bouquet as a cake topper. This is the easiest way to decorate a cake with flowers. Daises are great choices for polka dot patterns.

Flowers can adorn a wedding and beautify the bride in a very elegant and unique way, depending on the species you’re using. But flower decorations are also used for cakes. We can’t think of a more inspired combination for a wedding than desserts & flowers. This joining is a successful one from the start. You just need to find the right way to arrange the flowers on your cake. There are many themes, designs and styles to choose from. But first of all, you must select the flowers.
You can go for fresh, artificial or edible blooms. Think and rethink these options according to your budget and preference. Flowers on a cake always make the piece look more elegant, stylish and professionally made. This is why we suggest you consider decorating the cake yourself. You can buy a simple plain cake from the bakery and bring it home for further adorning. Use your own hands, or ask someone else to do it for you. Perhaps you have a talented baker in your family or among your friends who can build you the cake from scratch and then put on your favorite flowers for the final touch. Flowers can reflect the theme of the wedding and coordinate with the bride’s bouquet.

Use the same flowers inserted in the ceremony for a more unified look. There is a wide range of cake styles based on floral decoration you can choose from. Real flowers always add more naturalness, freshness and color to a cake. Besides this, they are fit for both formal and casual reception cakes. On the other hand, if you want something a bit more impressive and surreal, consider edible blooms. You can find sugar paste or rolled fondant flowers in any local bakery to use for your cake. Or, if your cake is made by a talented designer, choose from his own ornamental flowers.
Decide on the types of flowers and then pick a color scheme. The blooms can be lavish or mini, depending on the effect you want to create. The flowers can be arranged on each tier, between the tiers or placed on the last tier as a romantic topper. The majority of cake designs with flowers feature a cascading pattern. The cascade can be symmetric or unequally divided for different segments of the cake. If you want something more romantic, surround the bottom tier with a ring of flowers, vines, leaves and ivy. Or, scatter petals around the table for a more expressive and elegant look. If you want a simple effect, place a small bouquet of your favorite flowers on the top of the cake and let the ribbons fall down the tiers. Cakes with a single flower bloom appliqué are the trendiest ones.

But the appearance of the cake is the first thing to take care of. There are many things possible for those who want a unique wedding cake. Even you can make a plain simple cake look outstanding by using a few inedited edible decorations. Modern wedding cakes look so real and sensational because they are based on edible details. One of the most common types of ingredients used for edible cake decorations is sugar paste. And this ingredient is often used for flower ornaments.

We’ve seen many other figures and shapes made of sugar paste, looking adorable and simply delicious! An edible wedding cake design always makes a bigger impact on the audience. The details on a cake make all the difference, whether they are simple flowers, polka dots or a classic bride and groom topper. But to make them more impressive, have them made from edible ingredients. Your invitees will be flattered to see that the details they admired earlier in the cake ceremony are actually good to eat! Sugar paste is actually gum paste or what they call rolled fondant. This paste is edible and versatile. It can be molded into the trickiest shapes. The cake designer must be a good sculptor to be able to realize an artistic edible cake ornament.
Sugar paste is like the sculptor’s clay, if we can say so. You can buy a pre-made cake with edible decorations or buy your own sugar paste to create different accents for a plain cheap confection. Flowers are the most popular elements or motifs that appear in wedding cakes. Instead of using fresh flowers that can damage the cake or artificial blooms that have no attractiveness, use edible blooms. They will make a superb statement among your wedding attendants. Fondant can be tinted in any color and transformed into any creation or figure. Candied flowers and spun sugar details are inexpensive but simpler in appearance. For more intricate textures, always use rolled fondant or sugar paste.

Wedding Cakes With Real Flowers
We can see many wedding cakes decorated with fresh flowers today. And the first question is: aren’t the flowers toxic for an edible confection? You should definitely ask your wedding florist and cake maker whether your favorite flowers are dangerous for your wedding cake or not. This is the first advice for those who are planning on using flowers for the wedding cake. There is no doubt that floral cakes are among the most romantic and elegant. But before making any hasty decision you must assure yourself that everything is perfectly safe and healthy.
Some couples want live flowers on their cake alongside with fresh greenery. If you’re worried that these plants are toxic and dangerous to eat you should know that no cake designer agrees with a non-eatable cake. But not all wedding cakes are made by professionals. It’s always wiser to ask before making an unsafe decision on your own. It’s true that a floral wedding cake can contain dirt or even pesticides. So, how can one be sure that the blooms and greenery he uses are not risky for a wedding cake? Well, if your florist is not able to give you this answer, you can study a flower glossary and learn more about each type of flower in part. There are even edible flowers out there to consider for your cake and other wedding desserts. Rose petals are perfectly comestible and safe for a wedding cake.

The best way to make sure that the flowers on your cake won’t affect anyone at the wedding is to use plastic holders for the stems. The flowers don’t have to be inserted directly onto the cake’s tiers. There are many ways to place the flowers on a wedding cake without them touching the tiers. You will see that many designers advise those who want to use real flowers for their cake to make small arrangements and place them between the tiers of the cake. Besides the fact that the effect is fabulous, it’s safer this way. The blooms won’t come in direct contact with the confection at all! We also like the cakes adorned with fresh flowers at the base.
The table can be beautified with real blooms, without them touching the cake. Eco-friendly couples who want a green wedding can search of organically grown flowers to use in their cake and other décor centerpieces. If you can find someone who sells flowers that have no chemical herbicides or pesticides at their base you should definitely purchase a few for the cake. There are many people who are allergic to pollen. This is another issue to solve for those who are planning on using live flowers on the cake. Hydrangeas are toxic flowers for cakes.

Wedding Cakes With Calla Lily
It’s very easy to highlight a wedding cake and make it appear more romantic and original. Now, the final choice is only yours. But you should let yourself influenced in this decision by the coordinates of the wedding that affect your cake directly, such as the amplitude, formality, venue, season and theme of the party. These are the principal factors that can and should determine you to choose one cake style or another.
Many couples of today choose the simple style because it is cheaper and also more elegant. We always find more refinement, good taste and high class in a simple confection than in an elaborated design. But it depends on the vision each one of you has on the perfect cake for your wedding. If you are on a budget and you want to save on your cake, why not purchase a simple and clean confection from a local bakery in the size of your wedding and decorate it at home! This is a brilliant and efficient idea, especially for those who are skilled in decorating cakes or desserts. If you are talented or simply have more experience in this field, we suggest you take a chance on a DIY wedding cake decoration.

This method works all the time for those who are into crafty things. One of the easiest ways to beautify a wedding cake is through the use of flowers. You can use any type of flower you personally like and insert it in a particular manner so that the cake looks outstanding and unique. You can choose roses, peonies, tulips, hydrangeas, carnations, gerbera daises or calla lilies. These are only a few of the most important flower selections for a wedding cake decoration. But there are plenty more species to consider, based on your unique vision. If you care for something more special and less popular, use poppies, craspedia, succulents, sunflowers, lavenders or even ferns. Instead of flowers you can use exotic herbs or seasonal leaves and grass. Eco-friendly themes, organic flavors and green shades are very trendy right now in weddings.
We are happy to present you a calla lily wedding cake. This type of flower is by far one of the most elegant, expressive and sophisticated. Calla lilies are dramatic due to their wide shape and intricate bloom, but they are very soft, refined and feminine in the same time. In our opinion, calla lilies are ideal flower selections for a wedding cake because they are artistic and versatile. Graceful and dainty, calla lilies are the symbols of royalty and regal beauty. They also signify majestic elegance, understated beauty and perfection. Whether simple of elaborated, calla lily wedding cakes are always fabulous desserts and centerpieces in a wedding.

Wedding cakes with edible flowers are among our favorites. We like them because the blooms resemble very well the natural flowers. Our designers are so talented that can transform any dream into edible reality! There are toxic blooms that shouldn’t be incorporated in wedding cakes, or at least they shouldn’t be inserted directly onto the layers of the cake. If you love one type of flower that is not appropriate for an edible confection, use plastic holders to insert the stems. The blooms can be placed on the last but one tier of the cake for a more modern look. We’ve noticed that big ruffled blooms in soft colors are the ones that prevail, like you can see in these images!

Wedding Cakes With Roses
If you’re feeling romantic and you want to find a unique theme for your wedding that can reflect your personality and mood, perhaps you should consider roses. These lovely blooms can make a charming selection for your bouquet and other décor arrangements and centerpieces, but also for your wedding cake. In fact, you can use roses for different types of wedding items, starting with your gown and ending up with the wedding favors.
These types of flowers are considered traditional by many brides and grooms. But it depends on the color you choose and on the way you’re using them. Red and white roses are not the only choices you have. If you don’t like the traditional look, just opt for a different color, like orange, yellow or even blue! Rose can also be found in a wide range of pink and purple shades, browns, creams and greens.

You can even find them in black, burgundy and other dark hues. So, those who are not very romantic can opt for a whimsical look and choose dark colored roses. When it comes to wedding cakes, things seem easier because roses can add the perfect touch of elegance and naturalness to the ties without making the cake look conventional or standard. Although roses have been used with so much regularity by our traditional brides, these flowers are still in trend. There are many other ways in which they can be incorporated in a wedding.

Speaking of wedding cakes, roses can make a smooth and feminine addition to any type of design. It doesn’t matter whether your cake is big or small, formal or simple, plain or textured. Both simple and sophisticated designs are in trend, so don’t worry about that. The rose blooms can be applied in various ways to a cake, depending on the size, shape and design. We personally love the models that come with a single bloom. This style is very voguish and chic and it can suit perfectly well simple and smaller wedding reception parties.

The single flower is usually placed on the last but one tier of the cake and the effect is superb! Instead of using roses in a bouquet for the cake topper you can arrange them this way, for a more modern look. We are also big fans of single and two tier wedding cakes.
