Cupcake Cakes

Brides now are starting to use cupcakes to make their wedding cake unique. Not only do they make the cake cutting a lot easier, but they are extremely cute! Here are some of my favorite cupcake cakes!

Mini Wedding Cakes!

I came across this fantastic post on the Austin Wedding Blog and it was too adorable not to share! Mini- wedding cakes have been around for a while, but I've never seen a mini-wedding cake pan like this! It's too cute for words so I will just share the picture with you.

Mini-wedding cakes are a great alternative or addition to a traditional wedding cake. If you wanted something a little fancier than cupcakes, these are really a great idea! Here are a few other cutesy mini-cakes that I just love!

Brides Florida - Cake

I do enjoy looking through wedding magazines. Really, I do.



Then again, I do like to critique them as well. There are something things that these magazines say, advertise, suggest, send subliminal messages on, write stories on, that I don't agree with. But then again we are all entitled to our opinion.



With that said, this season's issue of Brides Florida was really good. I enjoyed it.



There was one article that stood out to me.



It was about cake. (I love cake...don't tell...)



It was this article:

Yes, I for real ripped it out of the magazine!



And only because, that Black and White cake... I've seen something similar.

Ms. Debbie, in Gainesville, Florida made a similar cake.



And the reason I bring this up, and I think that these prices that they have listed, are quite dependent on where you live. New York, Miami, and Small Town, USA all have different pricing.



The flavor the cake, the quality of the fillings, the number of teirs.... all play a roll. The design as well, and I get that, really I do. But I think that some of these prices may scare brides away from using a local, amazing baker. And then they run to a grocery store chain and think they've saved a bundle - when in fact, a lot of the time the prices may not save them money. And may compromise the quality of the cake.



Stepping off my soap box.

Very special truffles

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and those affected by the disease,  head on over to Dorn's for some special kake truffles, made by KB Kakes! The truffles are available all October long!

You know we are big fans of Kake Truffles, and what better way to celebrate the awareness of a Breast Cancer than with something sinfully delicious! Plus, it's for charity, so the calories totally don't count.

Right?

If I did it again....

I know you all know, that if I could marry my husband all over again, I totally would. And pretty much everything would be different.



Including the cake...



I love this!

Super Cute Cake Topper

While we are on uber cuteness, check out these cake toppers, that I also found on Etsy!

When you are looking for a cake topper, and deciding if you wanted to use one or not think about the personality of your wedding. How the topper ties to you, if you are going to use your college mascot, or cute adorable birds, are you tying those birds anywhere else in the wedding?



Will the topper match your theme over-all?

Cake Toppers!

I love cake toppers that are fun and different, I found these on one of my favorite sites, Etsy.com. Have you heard of it?



If you haven't it's the best thing to happen to the wedding industry, since, well, since cake!



Etsy is chock full of designers and crafters that make stuff, like hand-made fun stuff!



You can find these toppers on Etsy, here.

Hire Professionals - Cake Baker

Most of you have probably been introduced to Cake Wrecks, and that site has been endless enjoyment for our office!



It's part of the inspiration for this post. Imagine you go to your baker, and tell this you want a cake that is similar to this:

And then they tell you that's no problem, it should be a breeeeeeeeeeeeeze. And when your cake is delivered, set and ready to cut, you see this:

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!!



How do you avoid this?



Hire a professional baker, that is used to the area you live, humidity and heat can make big differences to cakes. Some areas can tolerate buttercream in the summer (we can't), some cakes shouldn't be outside period.



Some bakeries do other things, like sell groceries, check their prices and WHO is going to baking your cake. That can make a big difference. And honestly, the prices aren't all that different. In fact, you think you are saving money, and most of the time. You aren't.



Thanks Cake Wrecks for the use of the pictures on your site!
