Planning your wedding cake? Here are some tips to make sure it’s as stunning and delicious as the rest of your big day!

1. Choose the Right Baker

  • Look for local bakers with great reviews and experience in wedding cakes.

  • Schedule tastings to ensure both flavor and texture are perfect.

  • Ask to see their portfolio to make sure their style aligns with your vision.

2. Match the Cake to Your Wedding Theme

  • Consider colors, florals, and design elements that complement your décor.

  • If you're having an outdoor wedding (Queensland in spring can be warm!), choose a cake that can withstand the heat—fondant holds up better than buttercream.

3. Pick Flavors You Love

  • Don’t feel pressured to stick to traditional flavors—get creative!

  • Popular choices include classic vanilla, chocolate, red velvet, or unique flavors like passionfruit, coconut, or salted caramel.

  • You can have different flavors for each tier to cater to different tastes.

4. Think About Size & Servings

  • The number of guests will determine the size of the cake.

  • If you want a smaller display cake, you can have a sheet cake in the kitchen to serve guests.

5. Consider Dietary Needs

  • Offer a gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegan option if needed.

6. Delivery & Setup

  • Ensure the cake is delivered and set up properly on the day.

  • Have a sturdy cake stand and a cool spot to store it.

7. Don’t Forget the Topper!

  • Traditional or fun? Custom cake toppers can add personality!

8. Cake Cutting & Storage

  • Decide if you want to freeze the top tier for your anniversary (or just eat it the next day!).

  • Have a sharp knife and proper serving utensils ready.
