5 Alternative Wedding Cake Ideas
Serving your guests with something sweet at your wedding is a “must” – but that doesn’t mean that you have to stick to the traditional tiered cake. These days, brides are more and more creative when it comes to their wedding desserts, so why wouldn’t you be the same too? Following, we have put together a list of 5 great alternative wedding cake ideas, so make sure to read on and inspire yourself!
- A naked cake. If you want a cake, but if you want it to be natural-looking (and hauntingly delicious at the same time too), go for a “naked” cake. A cake without frosting can be decorated with flowers and fruit and it can look absolutely gorgeous as well, so don’t be afraid to be creative.
- Tiered pop cakes. If you want to serve the amazing taste of cake, but in a different shape, talk to your confectioner/pastry chef about creating pop tart cakes. You can go for different flavors and designs and you can arrange them on tiers as well – just as if they were “actual” cake!
- Pies. Who says you have to serve cake at your wedding? If you want to amaze your guests with something that tastes like “home” and “decadence” at the same time, go for a variety of special pies. Skip the classics and go for combinations of flavors that are unique and interesting if you want your wedding to be original from all points of view.
- A macaroon tower. Who doesn’t love these French bites of joy and elegance? Have your pastry chef create beautifully-colored macaroons and arrange them in a tower instead of the traditional cake. Your guests will love it!
- An entire table full of candy. Replace the cake with cookies and candy in your wedding colors and arrange them beautifully on a separate “candy bar”. Your guests will be able to have whatever they like most and your dessert will largely contribute to the décor as well!
