Hey loves, Happy Wednesday!
In my last blog, I gave you some tips on the best questions to have ask when hiring your caterer. Today, I ‘m going to give you some tips on what to know before you hire a cake designer!
Whether you want an elaborately decorated wedding cake or a simple design, it’s still important to be clear on what you do and don’t like. Here’s a few things you should be sure of before meeting with a cake designer:
-
Collect images of cakes you like from bridal magazines
-
An idea of what you and your fiance would like the cake to look and taste like
-
Cake flavors, fillings and frostings you like and don’t like
-
What you would like to use for a cake topper
-
The approximate number of guests and the size of the reception room. Depending on the size of the room and number of guests, the cake designer can make a presentation cake and serve pieces from large sheet cakes kept in the kitchen.
-
The style of your wedding, colors, flowers, style of your dress and decor ideas
-
Whether or not you’d like a groom’s cake. A groom’s cake is generally a cake designed in the theme of a hobby or interest of the groom and preferably in his favorite flavor!
-
Whether or not you plan to serve any additional desserts
-
Whether the reception is indoors or outdoors. This will determine where the cake needs to be housed until it’s time to cut it!
