Colorful Wedding Cakes

Who says a wedding cake has to be white or understated? Some of the most delightful cakes are those which are bursting with color and personality. One fabulous idea is a vivid wedding cake decorated with an array of vibrantly colored summer flowers. It would be just the thing for a festive tropical reception. Another gorgeous idea for a colorful wedding cake is one covered with butterflies. The whimsical butterflies look absolutely marvelous decorating a cake. They can be scattered all over the cake in a random design, or arrayed in a vibrant cascade down the tiers of one side of the cake. It is sure to be a showpiece of the wedding.

Of course it is not only the outsides of cakes that can be colorful. A very fun idea is to surprise your guests with a rainbow cake. On the outside, it looks like a classic white frosted cake. The big reveal comes when you cut into it and reveal the multi-colored tiers! This is one way to add an element of surprise and drama to the traditional cake cutting ceremony. What a fun cake this would be for a casual summer wedding celebration.
