Cupcake Wedding Cakes
January 30, 2008
Contributing Writer: Joanna Cali
Cupcake wedding cakes are beautiful, fun and can be much less expensive than traditional wedding cakes.
Cupcake wedding cakes are much easier to decorate, and you can even make them yourself. You can make a variety of flavors to be sure there's something for everyone - even some vegan cupcakes if you have vegan wedding guests. You can color code the cupcake liners (baking cups) to indicate flavor, or use specific decorations for each flavor. The cupcake liners come in a wide range of colors, including silver and gold, so they can match your wedding theme colors.
You can arrange your cupcake wedding cakes in tiers - Cupcake Tree has a great tower devised just for this purpose.
It's easy to decorate cupcake wedding cakes to coordinate with your wedding's color and theme. Here are some ideas:
- Miniature sugar flowers on each cupcake to match your bouquet or floral arrangements.
- Small holiday ornaments to coordinate with a holiday theme wedding (Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day, etc.).
- Real sea shells for a beach theme wedding.
- Jordan Almonds.
- Hershey's Kisses.
- Confetti Pelino loose confetti and flowers
- Bows and ribbons that match your wedding colors
- Your monogrammed initials
