How to Choose the Perfect Wedding Cake

Let’s face it: what would a wedding be without a cake? Whether you’ve attended quite a few receptions or were just invited to your first, having this dessert staple present is just as iconic as having rings and a ceremony! However, if you’re currently planning your wedding and are a bit perplexed on how to choose the perfect cake — don’t worry, because here are some simple tips to follow!


How Many Guests Are You Expecting?
Let’s just cut to the chase: how many friends, family, and plus-ones are you expecting to show up on your big day? By finding an almost-definite number will help make the process much simpler; you’ll know how big the cake has to be and how many people it should serve!

What Is Your Favorite Bakery and Do They Make Wedding Cakes?
Sure, it may seem strange if a bakery doesn’t make wedding cakes — but it’s more common than you think. If you have a favorite bakery in mind, see if they take orders for wedding cakes. And if by chance they don’t bake them at their shop, ask if they have any suggestions or recommendations of where you can order the wedding cake of your dreams!

Of course, you could always resort to using the good ol’ internet to find a bakery nearby that makes wedding cakes — but, sometimes, that won’t always provide you with “piece” of mind (pun intended).

If You’re Thinking About a ~Wild~ Flavor, Rethink That.
Sometimes, couples will be offered a variety of ~wild~ flavors (i.e., ginger spice, coffee) that can be incorporated into their wedding cake. While it might seem like an excellent opportunity to try something different — you might want to save that for another occasion. 

Although it’s your wedding day, there’s a chance that you might be stuck with a series of leftovers if the new flavor doesn’t go over well with your guests. Therefore, try to keep it safe and opt for more “fan-favorite” flavors.

Finally, Always Go to the Tasting!
Speaking of flavors, before you settle on one, you usually have a tasting with the bakery. And while many couples go, many opt out of it and decide on a flavor. Spoiler alert: always make time to go to the tasting — because sometimes you might not be a fan of the way a bakery produces a certain flavor!
