Wedding cake trends for 2014 are far from ornate. Instead, brides seem to be opting for a much simpler “less is more” approach for their wedding day desserts.
1. Tiny Cakes:
These pint-sized, one- or two-tiered beauties are being seen both on their own and as the centerpiece for a larger “dessert table” featuring different desserts or multiple cakes.
2. Dessert Tables:
Ok, this trend is an exception of the minimalistic mantra. Who wants just one type of cake when you can have a dozen?!
3. Typographic Toppers:
These adorable wedding toppers in whimsical calligraphy or a bold type-face let you say what you mean, and mean what you say!
4. “Naked” Cakes
Naked Cakes like these gorgeous frosting-free examples show exactly how brides are saying less is more.
5. Flower Power
For awhile, intricate designs and edible/sugar flowers dominated the wedding scene topping cakes covered in smooth, flawless fondant. Now, real flowers, leaves and vines atop rustic, imperfect butter cream frosting are having their time in the light.
6. The “Not-Cake” Cake
“Oh you served cheesecake at your wedding?” “No no, I had a cake literally made out of cheese.”
