Your wedding cake is the shining star of the food served at your wedding reception. It's true, everyone knows it; the wedding cake, no matter how large or small, has been a tradition for many years. The history of the wedding cake and its traditional tiers dates back to medieval times. Back then, each guest to the wedding would bring a small cake to the ceremony. The cakes would then be placed on tables in layers, or in a large stack. According to tradition, the bride and groom would then separate; one on each side of the table, and then try to kiss over the stacks. It was considered good luck, if the bridge and groom were able to kiss over the stack or layers of cakes. This tradition has survived the ages, and eventually, the stacks of cakes emerged as one single, tiered wedding cake. Other, funnier traditions, were the ancient Roman practice of actually dropping the cake on the head of the bride. Don't worry, you don't have to have a cake dropped on your head if that's not your thing!

Now most of the cakes are two teired so alot of couples opt to have one of the tiers a Hawaiian flavor to break the routine of
the typical standards. There is no need to feel constrained by the usual choices of chocolate, or vanilla. Not when there's so much more out there! Orange, and lemon are very popular flavors in the spring and summer. Other flavors, such as butterscotch, or toffee are also delightful. Flavors can be combined as well, such as a vanilla and cherry swirl, or chocolate cherry; the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. The trick is finding the right bakery, willing to bring the wedding cake of your dreams into existence. Imagine the delight of your guests as they delve in the first bite of a cream cheese vanilla and cherry swirl masterpiece, made specifically for your wedding event.

Designs

There are several different designs for your wedding cake that can be used. Whether you want an enormous cake for over a hundred guests, or a beautiful, but modest creation for your family and friends. Some specialty bakeries make modern cakes that can incorporate fantastic designs, made from a special moldable but edible type of icing. Others instead prefer to have a large tiered platform, made of clear plastic or glass that holds and displays hundreds of beautifully made little cupcakes. These are decorated in the preferred colors and theme of the wedding, so that the guests can just pluck one of the tray.

Centerpieces

The centerpiece is the little added decoration at the top of a wedding cake. It's the crowning gesture of elegance in the cake. There are probably millions of different designs that are available, though some people sometimes forego the optional little decoration. Some traditional designs are little figurines of the bride and groom, side by side on top of the cake. Others, are a little floral decoration, whether real, or made from spun sugar, or icing. Another popular design for the centerpiece is a heart, woven together from various different materials, such as silk, silver, cloth, or even icing. Whatever you decide to use for your centerpiece, just remember to keep in theme with your wedding.
