TRENDSPOTTER: Wedding Cakes

Buttercream frosting, red velvet and decadent chocolate - oh my! I wanted to get everyone dreaming of sweets for this weeks 2010 Weddings Trendspotter, so why not talk about wedding cakes! Last year, couples were opting for the trendy cupcake tower instead of the classic tiered wedding cake. Gorgeous cupcake stands displayed wedding themed cupcakes of all flavors. Sometimes a small wedding cake stood on top and voila - brides and grooms across the country had themselves their very own cake beautifully built of dainty cupcakes.

Well as they say - out with the old and in the with new, or in this case, the traditional! In 2010 we will see the traditional white wedding cake make a comeback. Three tiered cakes covered in butter cream frosting or white fondant will satisfy the palettes of wedding guests across the country. Make a bold statement and keep your wedding cake black and white - or maintain a romantic vibe by accenting the cake with flowers. Although this years cakes will be traditional, this does not mean they will lack style - create an awe-inspiring wedding cake stand with your planner that incorporates your decor.
