WHITE-CHOCOLATE PANELED WEDDING CAKE
Architectural though intimate, our white chocolate panel cake demands neither culinary abilities nor layout abilities (apart from those you learned in preschool). Only purchase a buttercream cake from a pack of chocolate panels from chocolatier Christopher Norman and a local bakery. The rest is a cakewalk: Adhere panels of varying heights onto the layers, and fill the ledges with a different fruit or gold raspberries.
IKAT AND FRENCH SILK RIBBON WEDDING CAKE
The spirit of a century-old French silk ribbon might be felt in every bite of the darling cake. On top rests a dramatic bow of molded glue paste (so realistic, you will be tempted to untie it). Afterward we painted luster dust that was edible mixed with lemon extract onto the fondant in a rose design that evokes the blurry quality of an ikat weave.
HEART WEDDING CAKE
Long ago, the heart was considered to function as origin of all human emotions. Though modern science shows otherwise, the phrase "giving your heart" remains the best method to express that you simply had give anything for the one you adore. Jay Qualls of the Tennessee-based Maples Wedding Cakes printed our designs on paper, covered them in parchment, traced them then transferred them.
EMBROIDERED LACE AND APPLIQUED WEDDING CAKE
Sugar paste was pressed into each form, then applied in layers to the fondant. The resultant ivory tower is one that both generations— your mommy's and yours —will adore.
A WEDDING CAKE WITH DISTINCT STRIPES
Here, we set the thought of icing on ice, relying instead on unadorned pale layers for graphic appeal. Coconut pound cake, tinted with gel-paste food coloring, serves as the base, while white fondant and passionfruit curd rests on top (the curd can also be between each layer).
DUTCH GOLDEN AGE WEDDING CAKE
Inspired by the hyper- naturalistic botanical still life paintings of Dutch artist Rachel Ruysch, circa 1685 to 1750, more than one guest will do a double take in the sight of the cake, which looks like a verdant floral centerpiece. Custom made sugar flowers, created by Amy DeGiulio of Sugar Flower Cake Shop in New York City, were planted in a bed of chocolate-fondant-covered cake, which was set in a gold urn that is sizable. Fill the cake's layers with rosewater buttercream to call it's flowering adornments out.
WEDDING PETIT FOURS
Soaked in brown sugar, butter, and honey glaze, these geometric minis by Wendy Kromer - Caitlin and Schell Brown resemble honeycombs. We topped them off with a helping of candied kumquats and whipped cream.
RED, WHITE, AND BLUE WEDDING CAKE
This Lafayette Grand Cafe & Bakery fromage blanc cheesecake has six tiers of berry-adorned goodness. The layers are flavored with lemon zest, vanilla bean, and black pepper, and sit atop an all-natural cornmeal crust.
TEARDROP WEDDING CAKE
Give your cake a dash of whimsy. Purchase up a fondant cake, along with a bucket of fondant, from a bakery. Add food coloring to the fondant to get the right colors, and roll out into a thin sheet. Cut with various teardrop-shaped cookie cutters (these are by Ateco, from Sur La Table), let dry, and attach to the very front of the cake with gum paste blended with hot water.
WHITE ROSE WEDDING CAKE
The standing as the most authoritative love symbol in nature of this bloom comes in the Greeks, who used the flower to symbolize the goddess Venus. White roses, particularly, have begun to symbolize love that was true, and purity, unity —as opposed to red roses' association with passion—which has earned them the status of Ultimate Wedding Flower. Here, New York City cake guru Sylvia Weinstock blanketed three tiers of cake in handmade, edible sugar petals to gently hark back to the design of a French croquembouche—and create a temple to Cupid's favourite flower.

MINI CHOCOLATE-COVERED WEDDING CAKES
Elaborate: Yes. Fussy: Not in the least. (Perch the cakes on a wire stand so extra glaze doesn't pool.) Afterward we gently pulled a toothpick to generate the designs.
SPRING WEDDING CAKE
Springerle molds are what make this cake (an orange-chiffon confection filled with mascarpone) fantastic. Despite the fact that the exceptional purple tint and springtime characters (bunnies, birds, and blooms) are not too shabby, either.
POTTED PLANT WEDDING CAKE
Contributing editor Jason Schreiber made this herb-adorned cake, which features micro marigolds, cilantro and fennel flowers, bachelor's buttons, sweet alyssums, oregano, and pea shoots. Swiss meringue buttercream's tacky texture kept the edible blossoms (purchase your own at gourmetsweetbotanicals.com) in place.
ROSE-PIPED WEDDING CAKE
This joyful rose confection may appear couture, but just about anyone is capable of recreating it. Focus on a basic fondant cake from a bakery. Next, print out our template of intangible roses, place parchment paper over it, and outline having a piping bag of royal icing. After dry, peel the paper from the piped roses, and adhere the layouts to the cake using gum paste that is been mixed with water that is hot.
ART DECO WEDDING CAKE
The layouts on this cake hark back to another time—when sandals were music was for dancing, and jewelry took a leap to the near future. But you don't need to understand your Art Deco to admire its geometric style. Covered in piped dots of frosting buttercream, and cut-fondant plaques coated with sanding sugar, it is just plain pretty, irrespective of the method that you slice it.
CHOCOLATE STOUT WEDDING CAKE
Each layer of the chocolate naked cake by Wendy Kromer- Caitlin Brown and Schell topped with candied pecans, drizzled with chocolate and caramel ganache, and is filled with buttercream. Meanwhile, the specific cake contains butter, yogurt, and stout (customize yours with your preferred brew), making each bite decadently damp.
