Winter Wedding Cakes

Wedding cakes are a predominantly Western tradition in marriage ceremonies. It is the tradition that a newly married couple stand together, hand on hand, and cut the cake together. This is because cutting the cake is a symbol of unity and togetherness. There are many different companies that cater to the special couples’ needs. The range of products on offer can differ dramatically in areas such as aesthetics, recipe, taste, number of tiers, icing and color. A winter wedding cake is usually differently decorated to those that are representative of other seasons. Popular "cool" winter wedding colors include any frosty tone of cream or white; from ivory to pale coffee cream. Other wintery themed colors include silvery greys, and icicle blues. More traditional and ‘warmer’ winter wedding themed colors include forest greens and warm mulberry or mulled wine reds.

Here are some great ideas to help you and your partner help start thinking about how best to choose to decorate your winter themed wedding cake on your special day.

Winter Wedding Cakes – Elegant Evergreen

The use of foliage such as holly, ivy and Rhododendrons is always a very popular choice for a winter themed wedding cake. This is both because of the actual colors and the aesthetics of the plants and the fact that they are all in season at this time of year. You and your partner could choose to select edible, sugared, versions of these leaves, or instead opt for readymade removable keepsakes. Either way the use of these entwining evergreen plants will not only look beautiful, but will also really help to create a very wintery theme for your wedding cake on your special day.

Winter Wedding Cakes – Carol Singers Lamps and Lanterns

Why not think about choosing to use miniature carol singers on your winter themed wedding cake? These angelic cherubs are very representative of the winter time of year, and can be used to great effect. There are numerous different products on the market that will happily stand on your wedding cake to create the overall effect that you desire. These range from foil ornaments to miniature statues and free standing ornaments. Alternatively, why not consider using the idea of lamp and lanterns on your winter wedding cake. These could either be real lanterns using tea light candles, or hand crafted versions of the same. The only consideration in this case is to ensure that the cake is prepared so that the natural candle light will not melt the icing on your wedding cake!

Winter Wedding Cakes – Angels and Fairies

Once again the idea of fairies and angels are traditionally associated with a winter themed wedding, regardless of individual culture. The use of fairies and angels on your winter themed wedding cake is absolutely ideal if you and your partner wish to create a truly magical feel on your special day. You could choose to go for a very traditional look, or even a more modern feel. Often the overall effect will be dictated by the materials that the fairies and angels are constructed from on your winter themed wedding cake. You could choose from handmade sugared images, crystal, porcelain or even high quality plastic.
