Choosing a Wedding Cake

Monday, December 1st, 2008

By Adam Blakey

Among the many things to be concerned about when preparing for a wedding and a wedding reception, the wedding cake is one of the most important. Unless this decision is being left up for the wedding planner to decide, it is usually a tough decision for all brides and grooms to make. Some things about the wedding cake to consider is whether it will be yellow cake, white cake, or even chocolate, what type of icing it’ll have on it, as well as how many layers it should have and how it will be spread out.

Tasting Wedding Cakes

There are many bridal events and wedding preparation events where brides-to-be and grooms can taste a whole variety of wedding cakes before they make final decisions. Many people want the perfect tasting wedding cake at their reception, and these wedding cake tasting events are the perfect place to get a feel for all the different types of icing, cake mixtures, as well as decorations that one can have on their big day. In fact, many couples choose to specifically set up a wedding cake tasting event so that they can see all the bakers from around their area.

Price and Service

Another concern with choosing a wedding cake is the price of the cake itself and how it’s going to be set up. A good rule of thumb to keep in mind when trying out wedding cakes is that the most expensive wedding cake is not necessarily the best-tasting one. Indeed, every wedding couple is going to have different preferences so the price should not be a mere signal of how good it tastes or whether the guests will like it. In addition to the price of the wedding cake, one should ask whether or not the wedding cake provider will be delivering and setting up the cake at the reception place or whether that needs to be taken care of by someone else. Most wedding cake makers will usually be happy to set it up; however, it’s usually done for a fee.

In addition to all of this, the bride and groom need to decide how many layers and how big they want the cake. As you can probably guess, there are many different types of designs and sizes for wedding cakes and choosing one is basically left up to the bride and groom, although the wedding organizer may help with the decision. A couple good indicators to help one decide how much cake they should buy depends largely on how many guests are being invited to the wedding ceremony, as well as how many have been invited to the wedding reception. You’ll want to have enough wedding cake to go around for all the guests, but yet not have too much so there’s a lot of cake left over.

The wedding cake is definitely just as important for the reception as many other parts of the ceremony and reception are, and many couples do place emphasis on having the right kind of wedding cake for themselves and their guests. Choosing a wedding cake can often be a difficult decision, but using a few of the guidelines explained above, such as taking into consideration one’s preferences and how many guests will be at the party, should help you decide on a cake once and for all!
