Wedding Cakes, Cupcakes or Both?

I went traditional with my wedding cake. I did a 3 tier vanilla cake with buttercream frosting. It was beach theme so I had a beach wedding cake topper and there were edible chocolate shells. It was quite delish, if I must say so myself.

I’d be lying if I didn’t tell you that the cake was the most fun part of planning my wedding. I tossed the ideas around and browsed pictures for hours. At first, I wanted a cupcake tower. I searched for hours, found so many that I liked and printed pages and pages of samples.

Then, I changed it to a half and half cake. The top was a 2 tier traditional wedding cake and the bottom was a huge cupcake display. This option is so fun because you can get creative – colorful and really use your imagination.

In the end, the traditional cake won. I found my cake topper worked best on a traditional cake – however, I cannot tell a lie. My heart ached for some cupcakes!

Whatever you decide to do, you can mix it up and get creative with various cake toppers and styles.
