Spring Wedding Cake Themes
Spring wedding cakes should be light, bright, and festive, with the cheerful colors of the earth's return to life and light, sultry flavors that melt on the tongue.
- Flowers and Plants: The most elegant spring cake designs focus on the vibrancy of life arising just outside – the floral abundance of spring. A simple white cake, embellished with touches of pink or lime green and crowned with flowers – or stylized flower cake decorations – is perfection itself.
- Variations on a Flower Cake - White on White: For a very classic but still spring-themed cake, consider a "white on white" floral design that builds on a traditional wedding cake design with intricate flower decorations.
- Variations on a Flower Cake - Real Plants: Some of the most elaborate cake makers will actually incorporate real cut flowers and plants onto the top of the cake. This can be a lovely touch on a very simple cake.
- Leaves, Vines, and Branches: For those who wish to step outside the norm, a blue or green cake decorated with stark brown vines or dark leaves of fondant can be very striking. Top with a monogram cake topper or a pair of lovebirds.
- Butterflies: A butterfly cake is simple and exquisite. Start with a simple, tiered white cake – or a very pale green or blue wedding cake design. Handpainted sugarpaste or fondant butterflies and flowers scattered across its surface make for simple and lovely decorations, and can be customized to match the color scheme and level of formality of the wedding. Glass or crystal butterfly cake toppers are another option for a more formal cake.
- Cupcakes and Cookies: Cupcakes, cookies, and the increasingly trendy "candy buffet" or "dessert buffet" is popular for spring and summer weddings. The individual nature of the cake is well suited to casual or elegant receptions, and the cupcakes can be dressed individually in alternating pink and white or green and white icing.
