Trends- 2013 Wedding Cakes






Every bride wants the perfect wedding, and whether or not she wants to design her wedding using all the latest trends in weddings and fashion is up to her. But I think it important for people to be aware of those things that are trending, so they have more options for their big event! Here are some of the new trends that I have observed for 2013. 


·         Lace- Delicate lace adorning wedding cakes is very popular. Both piped and formed lace will be seen in designs this year. Lace will be seen in vintage and modern designs. This simple accent can make the most basic cake into a breathtaking masterpiece. 


·         Vintage- Anything considered heirloom or vintage is popular this season. Muted pastel colors, lace, jewels, pearls and more will adorn these vintage cakes. Glamour associated with the 30’s and 40’s will be seen as well as romantic accents and china patterns.  


·         Hand-painted- Fondant cakes provide the perfect canvas for beautiful hand painted images. Florals, birds, geometric patterns, and even portraits will be popping up on the sides of wedding cakes this season. These beautiful works of art are very custom and tailored to each bride and groom.


·         Color- Couples who want a modern emphasis to their wedding add color. We will be seeing a lot of color in wedding cakes in 2013. It doesn’t have to be tacky or loud; accents of color can be fun. These accents will be seen throughout the weddings and will flow over into the wedding cake. Some specific color trends are mint and emerald green, both of these colors being called the colors of the year. 


·         Cake stands- Cake stands of all sorts are becoming very popular. Colors, patterns, and other interesting textures make these stands the perfect accent to a wedding cake. Not only does a cake stand add height to a cake, but it can also be incorporated into the overall design.

  1. Wedding cakes are amazingly designed. Especially the middle one! My friend is planning a gala bridal shower for her sister at one of the alluring Chicago wedding venues with pomp and show. Quite happy for her future life. Also bought so many gifts to pamper the bride to be. Perfect preparations are to be done with awesome and attractive décor.
