Being a modern couple is a great privilege. And we say this because there are other wedding trends nowadays, based on a lot more flexibility, artistry and originality. The 2012 bride and groom are invited to discover new ways of designing a wedding, based on their own vision and preferences. Everything in a wedding is nowadays based on unique accents, aesthetical decorations and simple motifs.

When it comes to wedding cakes, things are even truer. We are big fans of the modern cake designs promoted by our designers. These confections vary by style, size, shape, design, color and flavor. The wedding cake is not just a sweet dessert for the guests, but a real work of art! And we’re talking here about the way the wedding cake is interpreted and designed nowadays by our cake makers. The taste and the appearance of the cake are important in an equal measure and this is why you have to plan both the flavor and the design of the cake with more precaution.

You cake can feature a unique shape or pattern, or it can be based on a beautiful motif or detail. Simple wedding cakes composed of asymmetrical tiers and decorated with cute details are the trendiest. Both smooth and textured cakes are considered voguish nowadays. If you want to obtain an eye-catchy centerpiece for your party, opt for a brightly colored cake. You can incorporate more than two colors in your cake through an ombre theme, floral patterns, watercolor or washed-out prints and chevron pattern. Asymmetry is the key to modern wedding cake decoration.

We’ve seen this style used for the shape and tiers, flavor and filling, color and details of the cake. And the results were awesome! The cakes we’re showing here are unique because they are adorned with ribbons. Although many of you might say that ribbons are rather outdated decorative items, these designs are here to prove you wrong. Bows & ribbons are everywhere these days! We can see them in the bride’s gown, headpiece and shoes, in the wedding décor and in the cake.

This can be a wonderful DIY experience for those who are skilled in working with sweet confections and decorations. The first cake is unique because it features a chic black and white theme. The soft black ribbon with a pink rose adds the perfect elegant accent to this classy beauty. The next two cakes are inspired by artistic floral patterns. These confections look like romantic gifts and they seem ideal for summer time celebrations.
