9 Exquisite White Wedding Cakes That Are Anything But Vanilla

White has all but come to define all things wedding, and scrumptious confectionery is no exception. A white wedding cake offers a stunning simplicity and regality that colorful cakes can never match, just ask Prince William and Kate Middleton. Top that off with a large variety of decoration options – sugar flowers, fondant and intricate lace piping, to name just three – and you are left with a classic and tasteful cake, and we don’t mean just in design. Have a look at these white wedding cakes and get inspired for very own piece of cake goodness:

The lush green grass and beautiful white cake present a contrasting image that is about as delicious as the cake itself, we’re sure, but there’s no denying that you needn’t be confined to an outdoors wedding to use this excellent cake design, wreath decorations and ears of wheat for a truly delicious and wholesome looking cake. The custom topper which adds the only splash of real color is a nice touch too.

2. Customary Confectionery

This delightful looking cake combines some of the best elements that make up a wedding cake, or indeed a wedding. It’s white, it is decorated with gorgeous flowers, it features intricate lattice work and it features a mini bride and groom right at the top.

7. The Masterpiece

What is there to say? This cake probably took all of two weeks to put together, and it’s worth every bit of the effort. The floral wreath that runs across the base is complemented by the similar decoration on the bottom layer. If you’re looking at a floral theme, this is an excellent example of how to do things right.

8. Bits Of Blue

Picture this cake entirely in white, and it seems a simplified version of some of the cakes listed above, and that’s not a bad thing. Put in the blue accents, however, and you’ve got a cake that is perfect if you’re working with that color in your decor, or more likely, if you’re having a beach wedding. Replace with your color/shade of choosing, or the one that works best with your theme.
