Getting the Right Wedding Cake for Your Hawaii Wedding
You should know that bakeries are often overbooked, so you will want to book your cake well in advance. You don't want to have to proceed with the wedding without the perfect cake! There are many different flavors of cakes and icings for wedding cakes and a great idea would be to choose a flavor that will go along with your theme.
Try something unique like a flavored cake and icing that go together. This way you don't have to have the traditional white with vanilla icing or chocolate cake with chocolate icing. Even if you just mix it up by having a Hawaiian-styled white cake with a citrus flavored icing it would be a serious improvement over traditional cakes.
Cake tastings are usually available if you call in advance. This is a great chance to taste a variety of cakes and icings understand what you're buying for your wedding. Otherwise you may not be happy when your cake isn't what you expected and it's already been served to your guests. However, is cake really ever bad?
There are so mnay style of wedding cakes now, with squares, circles, small cakes, big cakes, etc. You can even have fully customized cakes to look like anything you desire. They cost more, but they're really cool. Think about the flowers, cake toppers, and other decor that could dress up your cake as well. There are just so many ways to make it uniquely your own.
If you're having a lot of guests, try smaller versions of wedding cakes or maybe cupcakes. You can purchase several small and beautiful cakes to place at each table instead in conjunction with the large cake. You can then choose several different flavors, designs, and looks. Speak with the cake designers to weave all the looks together, and make it flow.
If you're having a large wedding, or if you can't find a baker for your date, there's always another option in the making of a show cake and a real cake. This way your guests will be enamored by the beauty of this cake for show on your table but they can eat a regular cake (that still tastes great) but maybe doesn't cost as much. This is especially helpful for large parties over 250 guests.
Some really amazing cakes can be custom designed for your wedding. Maybe you're having a theme that no one else would have, such as "the years of our lives." Let's say you and your are reminiscing over your relationship, and your decorations will be pictures of the two of you over the years. You could actually get a cake with a picture of the two of you in edible icing! The possibilities are endless. Create a great wedding cake that you will always remember for your wedding in Hawaii.
