Fall Wedding Cakes

If you're having your wedding in the fall, consider the theme of the season when choosing your wedding cakes. Theme cakes are normal for weddings, and there are many different kinds of fall wedding cakes. If you consider the flavor, color and decorations of the cake, you can find the right cake for you and your wedding.

Look around you for inspiration: fall's scents and colors will help you as you look through fall wedding cakes. The look of your cake is especially important. Fall wedding colors will make or break your cake. You want to consider not only the color of the actual cake but also any frosting you plan on using. Consider fall-based colors like oranges, yellows, and reds. You don't need to go overboard with your fall wedding cake colors. Think about the colors of the trees during fall, and consider which colors you'd like to include in your cake.

Additionally, consider the color palette of the decorations you want to use. This means everything from the tablecloths to the bouquet you plan on carrying to the color of your bridesmaids' dresses. Once you have the base colors, you can then decide on the garnishes and decorations you wish to include.

Next, choose on the flavor of your fall wedding cake. Pumpkin, pear and apple are all great flavors to use for crafting this cake. Additionally, you can serve the cake with such fall-associated items as caramel apples and pumpkin ice cream. These items can only add to the presentation of your fall wedding cake.

You can decorate a fall wedding cake with a variety of items. Try painting fall-colored flowers or maple leaves. You can also invest in plastic items like acorns and leaves to add to the piece. You can also include molded chocolates into your wedding cake's theme. Additionally, consider using fake leaves or acorns to surround the cake. Remember, however, that less is more; decide on a few items and arrange them sparingly.
