Our wedding cake flavors....

Rachel, on October 5, 2020 at 4:21 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 10

Thanks to everyone who chimed in on my wedding cake flavor ideas! I am happy to say that my fiance and I have narrowed them down.

We are going to do a 3-tiered cake with: vanilla funfetti, red velvet, and lemon poppyseed. The cake will be consistent with vanilla buttercream throughout.

As for our side dessert, we had originally intended for there to be both cupcakes & donuts (my favorite), but because we are having a smaller wedding party/reception, we agreed that having both options might be overkill. Instead, we opted to just have chocolate salted caramel cupcakes. Because our cake itself will be more vanilla/light flavors, we wanted chocolate cupcakes as a good balance.

BIG THANKS to all those that contributed their ideas, we can't wait to taste the yummy samples in February!

    My wedding is in June of 2022! I’m getting the ball rolling now because I have a feeling 2021 is going to be crazy and there’s always the chance that 2021 brides will postpone their dates back to 2022, so I’m planning EARLY! Lol!

    Yummy Rachel!

    Red velvet is one of my favs. If I could've gotten away with pineapple upside down though . . . Girl! lol

    We're having a vanilla chiffon with passion fruit curd. Since it's a minimony, it will just be one tier. I'm a little nervous because our original baker left right after the hurricanes in 2017, and the follow up baker recently closed due to COVID. So hopefully, this third baker will be a charm and we'll have a tasty cake. Fingers crossed!

    Pineapple upside down is amazing!!! Lol! But the flavor you picked sounds delicious, too. Fingers crossed your third baker comes through, I’m sure it’ll work out!

    Isn’t blue velvet a blueberry-type flavor? I’ve had something similar before, but I wasn’t sure if that’s what it is 🤔
