Piece of cake
Very vintage This look very much depends on the decade you're paying homage to. But for all retro wedding designs, the buzzwords are elegance, style and attention to detail. Take time to research your chosen era and you'll reap the rewards. A 1930s-inspired cake, for example, should focus on employing clean lines and Art Deco geometric shapes. Eco chic The look of an eco-friendly cake is secondary to its contents – although it can be fun to be liberal with this type of cake and use green leaves and flowers as decoration. The emphasis should be on ensuring the ingredients are local and organic. Ask your baker to avoid artificial colours and flavourings but to use food colourings derived from natural sources. Glamour cakes If your wedding is influenced by the golden age of the 1950s then be inspired by its classic decadence, using ribbons tied to bows, delicate cornelli lace piping and sparkling brooches to create the look. Edible diamonds, glitter and silver balls are all details that help to give the wow factor. Or ask for a simpler design but style it with some blinging Swarovski crystal cake jewellery. Beauty on a budget There are lots of ways to save money on your wedding cake without your guests ever knowing that you're working to a budget. Cupcakes are still very popular and, depending on the level of decoration you're after, they can be a much more affordable option. If you'd prefer to have one cake then save cash by using less tiers or dummy tiers, and by going for a simple decoration or using flowers to decorate your cake
