Wedding is a special occasion which requires everything to be just perfect including the wedding cake. The tradition of cutting cakes on weddings dates back to medieval ages. Wedding cakes symbolized a happy and prosperous marriage; even today, wedding cakes hold a pivotal position and no wedding ceremony is complete without cutting the cake. The first thing people notice after the glowing couple of course, is the rich and pretty wedding cake is; decorations over the wedding cake are most important and make your cake memorable. From basic fruit cakes and sponge cakes, the wedding cakes have now progressed to many different shapes, designs, colors and flavors. The wedding cakes are tastefully decorated with toppers both natural and artificial. The toppings include chocolate curls and chocolate roses, gold rings, a figurine of a couple, crystals and also a horse shoe. It has also become a fashion to customize the wedding cake according to the wedding theme. The wedding cake should also reflect the personality of the couple. Wedding cake has acquired the status of a centerpiece and now elaborately decorated cakes can be seen at weddings. The online cake shops specialize in making wedding cakes. These cakes can be traditional or modern or theme based; fantasy fairy cakes are also frequently ordered these days. The wedding cakes are expensive but some online shops provide cheap wedding cakes and budget wedding cakes which are quite suitable for those on a budget. The quality of the cheap wedding cakes is at par with those of the expensive versions; the word cheap refers to low cost. The cost of the wedding cakes is cut down drastically by limiting the trimmings and toppings and by keeping the cake simple. Also a square shaped cake feeds more people than a round cake of the same weight and size. Also if you substitute the artificial flowers with real flowers, your cake will not only look pretty but will also cost less. Some online cake shops make exclusive wedding cakes which can be seen in their photo gallery and if you have something special in mind, you can communicate with them by filling in a form and telling them your requirements and ideas. You can go through different magazines to get an idea about the wedding cake you would like. You can mix and match different cakes to create your own. You can discuss your idea with the online cake shop designer and chalk out a feasible cake design. Besides the wedding cake itself, the presentation of the cake is also important. There are various cake stands available and you should choose according to the design of your cake. Also it is better to consult your cake designer before purchasing a stand. The cake should either be placed at the head table so that everyone can see it or you can ask the cake to be brought at the dance floor just before the cake cutting ceremony. Either silver or a golden cake knife is used to cut the cake; you can either purchase one or use the one which has been in your family for generations.
