Anyone want to flash their cakes for me?! I need inspiration!

Chose this because I was having calla lillies and we preferred simple designs to anything too fussy.

Mine is similar to this:

We are having hot pink and have incorporated butterfly's into the theme so it fitted the style (very girly!) I also loved the crackled effect of the icing instead of smooth. What's your wedding theme/colours/etc?

This is what we want (sorry it''s so big):

I fell for the cake stand and set about finding real life photos of it.

This is ours - except ours will be decorated with red roses.

This was ours, we chose it because we love flowers ! It was fruit on the bottom and the middle and top tiers were lime, malibu and coconut it was gorgeous ?

Ours will be similar to this but we're having one tier of dark chocolate, one of milk and one of white - decorated with milk and white maltesers

This is ours. We have a red and gold theme and I thought it looked a bit asain-y

This is ours but the butterflies will range from light purple through to dark purple!Bottom layer is sponge, second tier is chocolate and top tier is lemon

Having this but with only 3 cakes on the side rather than 6

That is lovely

Hey,

Ours will be like this but the petals will be dark purple!

This is ours but the hearts will be more "purple" rather than the lilac/pink ish colours shown on pic, plus also having caricature topper as we are having a caricaturist at the reception so thought it would tie in quite nicely..

Isn't that effect because its a polystyrene replica cake??

Sorry if i'm wrong!

Nope, our cake lady has a special roller that she has to run across the icing apparently.

Our cake but we are having ivory instead of pink x

Ahh i thought it was......I didn't know about the rollers you can get though!! lol

Jules40, she is certainly a very clever lady! It was very hard to choose from all her amazing designs! She is based 10 mins down the road, which was a real bonus as I fell in love with her cakes before I even knew where in the country she was!x

Wow, oh wow, oh wow! In a few photos you have all given me so many ideas! Please keep them coming...

We have not yet 100% decided colours, but I think we will be tending towards the more simple designs.

Lynsey and Fruitbat, are the flowers on your cakes made of icing? We'd quite like marzipan or icing decorations, so we can eat them!

Webac1986 - its from Maki's Cakes www.makiscakes.com (based in surrey) x

Our cake, straight though, not skew as in the pic, with pink flowers

this was ours xx

Hi, , have you looked on the Martha Stewart Weddings website, there are hundreds of cake designs, , ,x

We are having cupcakes with a regular round cake on top for cutting with our topper on top.

I want something like this for the cupcakes, but in my softer vintage colours - Ivory, dusky pink and sage green :

Darn wish I'd thought of marzipan cos I love the stuff. Yes our flowers were made of sugar paste and I've still got them. If we ever have a big party for a the birth of a baby, 10 year anniversary or something I want the same cake with flowers used somehow lol. We had 2 tiers on the cake, fruit and chocolate but then a vanilla sponge as a cutting cake so we didn't keep the top tier as we wanted to use it all so will be nice to use the flowers at some point. You couldn't eat them though as sugar paste goes rock solid.

Woow! i think these cakes are so creative! i love them!

I cant find a pic like what we are having but they will be 4" 2 tier cakes (like cup cakes but not cup cakes iykwim) they will be white with red ribbon and red rose and white calla lillys on the top

Yes, in the photo they are icing / marzipan, although ours will have artifical flowers as I cannot abide marzipan (don't like almonds - I even pick them out of my breakfast cereal). Also, I want to be able to keep the flowers off it.
