On the wedding day, after the formal ceremony such as exchanging rings, the newlyweds usually have an entertainment activity of cutting the cake. Before the wedding, a relatively exquisite wedding cake will be prepared. The bride holds a knife, and the groom holds the bride's hand, and they cut the cake together. This is considered to be the first thing a couple does together, and it represents a good start for their future married life. What are the details of a wedding cake? From the number of layers to the detailed production, we need to pay attention to a lot.
What are the requirements for wedding cakes: number of layers
To be precise, there is no mandatory requirement for the number of layers in a wedding cake. If the newlyweds like a single-layer cake, we can choose a round or square single-layer cake. If you prefer multi-layer cakes, our general number of layers is within 6 layers. The choice of this number of layers is also determined based on the scale of the wedding. The larger the scale, the more layers will be needed. However, the maximum number of layers in our cake should not exceed nine. Nine is a very good meaning, but if there are more, it will be inconvenient for newcomers to cut it.

What are the requirements for wedding cakes: Materials
The more common wedding cakes we have now are generally fondant cakes. Because this material is relatively durable, it will not be easily deformed even after being placed for a long time on the wedding day. If we don’t like fondant cakes, we can also choose other materials. Just be aware of these few things to avoid: whipped cream, egg icing, and ice cream. Although cakes made from these materials taste good, they are very easy to deform. Think about it, on the wedding day, when we opened the cake box and found a deformed and ugly wedding cake inside, wouldn’t it ruin the overall atmosphere?

What are the details of wedding cakes: shape
The shape of the wedding cake naturally needs to be carefully designed by our cake chef. All in all, our cake style should be coordinated with the overall wedding style. If the newlyweds have any ideas about the design of the cake, you can also communicate with the cake chef, express your ideas, and let them make a cake that is exclusive to you and unique in the world. In addition, we can refer to the decorations used. Flower petals or gold foil paper are common accessories. Once the shape of the wedding cake is done, it will attract people's attention throughout the wedding.

What is important about wedding cakes: taste
For wedding occasions, the appearance of the cake is actually much more important than the taste. However, we can’t be too casual about taste. Before the newlyweds decide on the flavor of the cake, it is best to communicate with the cake chef. If possible, taste various flavors in advance and choose a cake that is most suitable for most people. Yes, there will be a lot of guests on the wedding day, and we can't cater to everyone's tastes, but as long as we cater to the tastes of most people, we won't go wrong.
