Hey ladies, What cake flavors are you guys thinking of? Are you going for an old fashion look? Fondant? Or the new naked? I myself am not a big fan of fondant and have seriously been considering the naked cake. Im having some doubts being that I didn't plan on keep all tiers the same flavor. Hmmm......

    That cake is gorgeous!!!! I LOVE it!!!! Someone else also mentioned a sheet cake! I am seriously considering. Only thing is I would still want a double layer so the guest can have filling as well.

    My fiance is SUPER SET on ice cream cake and honestly, I don't even know if that's an option Smiley xd . He said if we can't get that then he'll SETTLE for chocolate or marble.

    We are having a strawberry shortcake, vanilla cake with whipped cream frosting and strawberries, doing a semi-naked (as of right now, it’s still over a year away), 2 tiered cake with a big dessert table with a bunch of mini desserts for people to take as favors. I find not many people eat the cake so I opted to do a smaller one, in our favorite flavor.

    LOL awesome, he is. He's super special but I wouldn't trade him for the world. You should have seen how lit up his face got when I first asked him about cake flavors. It was the first thing he yelled out Smiley xd I hope we find a way to get it too. We're getting married August 9th, 2020.

    I’m thinking something like this with frosting instead of fondant. Also most likely going with each tier being a different flavor, that way there’s a variety to choose from

    It’s going to be a 4 or 5 tier cake (I forget the exact number) but it’s nice because my fiancé works there so it’s going to cost us a little under $300. Plus it’s going to be gluten free and vegan for some of our guests so everyone will be able to eat it

    I agree! I don’t want to do all one flavor. I feel like that is how it would go to waste. I just think if I do it as a naked cake it would look a bit tacky. That cake is absolutely beautiful though!! 😍😍😍

    Well it's a really great inspiration picture!! 😍

    Hmm yeah, I agree about the cheesecake layer maybe not being dense enough to support further layers of cake. Maybe using dowels would work? But this is definitely something you should discuss with your baker😃

    We knew immediately that we wanted a key lime and coconut cake in whatever combo the bakery could make it. We also detest fondant and will just have them cover the cake in the buttercream frosting with a few decorative swirls. But we also didn't want to have to cut a giant cake so we decided to only get a one tier cake in our flavor and will be getting cupcakes in that flavor as well as 3 others. We are having a fall beach wedding (we live in Virginia so while it's a crap shoot we are confident it won't be too chilly) we wanted beachy but also fall comfort. Our additional flavors are S'mores, Tiramisu, and Apple Pie. They not only fit the timing and venue but are different enough that there should be something for everyone.

    The skirt portion is multi layers of blue tool. but its a soft tool. I am going to be doing some altering to it to make it look a little different.
