expert advice

" Because of it's unlimited creative design possibilities and it's smooth clean look, fondant is fabulous for wedding cakes," proclaims Barbara Talevich, owner of West Side Bakery.  " Better yet, brides are discovering the taste and texture of fondant is much more pleasant now than it was even a few years ago which leads to an even more delicious experience that everyone will enjoy."

" The style as well as flavors should compliment the event perfectly,' says Charity Mazzaro, owner and Designer of The Cake Loft.  " It leaves a lasting impression of the wedding in everyone's mind."

Rick Reeves of Reeves Cake Shop offers this advise, " When choosing an icing, takes several things into consideration.  First, the location of the reception. 
Is it outside?  If so, you may want to consider a rolled fondant cake.  If the hall is air conditioned, then a buttercream or a non dairy whip creme are excellent choices.  Second, what style of decorating are you looking for?  A lot of today's cakes are shown in the fondant icing.  If fondant is not your favorite icing, you will probably have to compromise on the style of decorating to something that can be accomplished in another type of icing.

" When comparing cake designers, look for smooth frosting, evenness of cake, and artistic flair," suggests Nadine Budziak of Cakes by Nadine.  " Also, the ability and willingness to help you design your cake for that special day."

" While planning the menu, know that it's not just about the wedding cake anymore," adds Jim Rito of Rito's Italian Bakery.

" The wedding cake is the focal point of your wedding reception," says Marianne Carroll of White Flower Cake Shoppe.   " Let it make a personal statement about you as a couple.   Don't be afraid to use color, texture, interesting patterns... design it to be something your guests will remember for years to come!"

“Find someone truly passionate and excited about what they do. The results will be more than you ever imagined”, suggests Ms. Dawn Verwold of Crème de la Crème.

Table Cake Centerpieces are growing in popularity.  Order a two tier cake for your head table and a small  cake for each guest table.  Have multiple flavors and your guests can mingle as they sample the different cakes says Dolores Reeves of Reeves Cake Shop.
