Modern Wedding Cakes That May Surprise You
I love watching the evolution of cake art, and today we're going to look at some fantastically fun designs like THIS:
(By Lima Cakes)
Aw yeeeah.
This one reminds me of a shopping mall in the 80s, but I mean that in the most glorious and refined way possible:
(By Malarkey Cakes, London)
So fun, right? The texture on the bottom tier is my favorite.
Or perhaps you'd like something DRAMATIC:
(By Lima Cakes)
You can see why the all-caps was necessary. Wowza.
This next one might be my favorite today; it's practically bursting with color and motion:
(By Historias Del Ciervo)
It almost feels like the cake is opening up like a flower, right? And then releasing the butterflies? That is SO COOL.
Classic white and gold with a fresh twist:
(By Historias Del Ciervo)
More metallic jewel tones, please, bakers. This is incredible.
This one practically leapt off the screen at me. I am mesmerized by the floating illusion with the black and white splash:
(By Saltadena, Washington)
And the single orange flower at the base? ::chef's kiss::
Another beauty that made me stop and stare:
(By Maggie Austin Cake)
Are they leaves? What's the top thing? How is it doing that? I have no answers, but I'll keep sighing dreamily over this cake anyway.
This one has a galaxy feel to it, right? If a galaxy was hot pink and orbited by flowers?
(By Historias Del Ciervo)
STELLAR.
And finally, another contender for my top favorite, a gravity-defying gem that knows how to make a splash:
(By Zummy Cookie)
Grabby hands. I have them. (Although I'd actually rather have it as a ceramic-and-glass sculpture so I can hang my necklaces on the orbs and keep rings in the top dish. Eh? EH? Jewelry box designers, get on this.)
I hope these gave you smile today, cake fans! Stay sane and safe out there, and remember to make today extra Sweet for someone you love.
