It is a good idea to make arrangements with your chosen supplier to sample the cakes and flavoured icings before making your final choice. Choosing cakes made out of individual cup cakes are a popular choice. Wedding cakes can also be produced in a variety of colours to match your theme and can even include colour coordinated bases and wedding cake stands. For a really stunning effect why not consider a different colour for each of the cakes tiers. Cakes can be produced in an infinite number of shapes and can either be stacked or tiered.

Calculate the size of your cake based on the anticipated number of guests. You will need to carefully consider the size of your cake. This should be based on the number of wedding guests you are expecting and whether you are serving the cake as a dessert in its own right or as an accompaniment to coffee. You should also remember to add around an extra 10 to12 servings if you are planning to keep your wedding cakes top tier. Make sure your precious cake arrives in one piece. Make sure that you finalise the transportation arrangements, which needs to be considered very carefully, to ensure that your cake arrives at the wedding reception location in one piece.
