Every detail of a wedding can make a huge difference, of course. However, when it comes to the wedding cake, most couples will pay attention to what they pick for their Big Day. If you want your wedding cake to be truly memorable, forget about the traditional flavors and go for something that is really unique. Here are some great ideas:
• If you really love strawberry cakes, you can definitely choose them as your cake “basis”. However, instead of going for the already traditional strawberry frosting or filling, have the actual cake made with strawberry syrup. Pair it with vanilla filling and with cream frosting for an elegant and yet delicious taste. Strawberry Shortcake is a filling with fresh strawberries and cream frosting.
• Carrots may not be your usual “wedding cake flavor”, but the truth is that they can make for a wonderful and delicious dessert. A carrot cake with cream cheese filling and cream cheese frosting with a dash of coconut can taste absolutely delicious – and it’s definitely something unique for everyone at the wedding.
• The traditional chocolate cake can get a really nice twist with a bit of mint, raspberry or caramel in it. Have your confectioner create a chocolate cake with mint, raspberry or caramel chocolate mousse as filling and dark chocolate as frosting. A refreshing and original idea!
• Since Christmas is just around the corner, you may want to bring some of those fabulous, rich flavors associated with winter holidays into your wedding cake too. For instance, you could have your confectioner make a chocolate cinnamon wedding cake with salted almond chocolate filling and with chocolate cinnamon mousse as frosting.
• Try the island flavors of Hawaii which include Guava, Lilikoi or Passion Fruit, Mango, Sweet Potato, or Coconut Haupia cream. They are light in color but big on flavor. Try a Rainbow Cake incorporating any of the island flavors and you will be delighted with the Flavors of Hawaii.
Your creativity is the only limit you have when it comes to combining flavors for the perfect wedding cake – so don’t be afraid to use it!
