Love Birds Top This Cake



In general I'm not a big fan of love birds at weddings or cake toppers on wedding cakes--a little too much for me, but this cake by Bobbette and Belle (located in Toronto, Canada) is an exception.  I saw it and fell in love with the creativity of it!  Bobbette and Belle made this cake for a Toronto wedding.  Lucky bride and groom!  Bet it tastes as good as it looks! Visit Bobbette and Belle's web site by clicking this link where you'll see they make this cake with other color schemes as well.

California Brides--La Monarca Bakery Suggest Cake Bites For Your Wedding


Cake bites--are they taking the place of cupcakes at weddings and other special occasions?  Co-founder of La Monarca Bakery, Ricardo Cervantes thinks they will.  (Ricardo, I fell in love with just your name, add the cake bites and you have a customer for life!) He's so convinced he's serving them at his own upcoming wedding reception.  La Monarca offers them in a variety of different flavors including: fruit tarts, dark Mexican mocha cake, traditional puff pastry Napoleon, tres leches and caramel flan. They also offer less traditional wedding cakes like tiramisu and dulce de leche. So many sweets to choose from it is a hard decision, so don't waste time choosing, just serve your guests a selection from La Monarca.  Visit their web site at La Monarca Bakery where all the food is made from scratch--no mixes here, no preservatives, no lard, no artificial flavors--no wonder they taste so good!  The store was named after the Monarch butterfly--even it's boxes for it's goods are gorgeous.  La Monarca-a feast for your mouth and for your eyes!  Visit them soon if you are lucky enough to live in California near one of their stores!

Lacey Looking Cake


I love this black and white cake that I found on Real Simple's web site.  Black and white is one of the most popular wedding combinations for brides looking to make a personal statement.  This black and white lace confection may be on a site called Real Simple but it looks anything but simple!


This cake from Call Me Cupcake's site, also in black and white is not quite as inticate but would work well for a less fromal black tie wedding.  This cake was inspired by fabric and has the same look...clean but sophisticated. Be sure to visit both these sites to find even more great cakes to give you some inspiration for your own cake.
