Adding Flowers to a Wedding Cake
In recent years, the trend of incorporating flowers into wedding cakes has gained significant popularity. This beautiful addition not only enhances the visual appeal of the cake but also brings a touch of nature's elegance to the overall wedding décor. Here’s how to thoughtfully incorporate floral elements into your wedding cake.
Types of Floral Designs
Fresh Flower Accents: Small clusters of fresh flowers can beautifully adorn the top tier of your cake or be placed around the base. This accent technique adds a romantic touch and keeps the design light and airy.
Single Stem Toppers: A singular large bloom can serve as a striking focal point. Flowers like peonies or roses create dramatic statements while showcasing your wedding colors.
Floral Cascade: For a more dramatic look, a cascade of flowers can flow down the side of the cake. This design requires careful arrangement to ensure the flowers appear balanced and harmonious.
Flowers around the Base of the Cake: Another option is to add florals around the base of the cake. This adds a lot of drama to your wedding cake.
Input from your Bakery or Pastry Chef
It’s always a good item to have a conversation with your bakery or pastry chef about the logistics, placement, style, and their preferences. Some bakers and chefs prefer to have loose stems of flowers that they can add on site. Some styles require us to design the floral pieces in advance. It this case the logistics of who will ultimately place the flowers, the baker or the florist, should be decided in advance.
