Cupcake wedding cakes have become increasingly popular.
In the last year more and more weddings have been featuring
cupcakes as their wedding cakes.
Why is this? The display is very, very eye appealing. The
stacks of layers of cupcakes are a beautiful sight to see
for the guests to see as they walk in. Wedding couples adore
the cupcake display for their cakes for a variety of reasons.
Retro - Everyone remembers having cupcakes
at birthdays from their childhood. There are reminiscent
and nostalgic deserts that can trigger those oh so fun "Remember
when" conversations. People love telling those kinds
of stories, and given the nature of the event are sure to
tell a few of the younger bride and groom.
Cute - They are just adorable. Iced with
delicious frosting beautiful sprinkles and individually
wrapped just for you.
Colors - Cupcakes give the decorators
a lot more options for color. The decorators can easily
coordinate the color scheme with the frosting with a wider
variety of cakes to ice and color to match the decor of
the reception hall.
Flavor - The advantage of the cupcake
gives the availability to use more flavors. With cake, you
are locked in to a certain number of flavors, but with cupcakes
you can spread your wings on the amount of flavors you can
present to your guests and give them more variety. Guests
who enjoy a lemon or carrot flavor in their cake now have
that option should they want those flavor options for dessert.
Versatility - Cupcakes are significantly
easier to transport. There is a much greater margin for
error transporting trays of cupcakes than there is with
transporting layers and layers of cakes. The decision to
go with cupcakes instead of a traditional wedding cake can
further put the couple’s mind at ease that there will
be nothing structurally wrong with their decorative desert
on the most important day of their lives.
Size - There are two sizes that cupcakes
come in for guests to choose from. Guests can choose from
the traditional size of a cupcake or a larger size, almost
like that of a muffin.
Cost - Choosing cupcakes over a conventional
cake is also a great way to cut cost and make the wedding
more cost effective, without sacrificing any elegance. This
is a perfect method to staying within a tight budget for
your wedding.
The last part of the decision process is deciding how to
go about displaying the cupcakes. One of the most popular
methods of displaying cupcakes is to display them in the
shape of a tree. The display will look as beautiful as a
fully decorated Christmas tree. Another option could
be to cascade them down rows to resemble a flowing majestic
waterfall.
If the couple still wants to stick with the tradition of
a bride and groom cutting a cake, they can arrange for a
smaller cake to be made so a photographer can take that
picture of a bride and groom cutting the cake.
