How to Design Your Dream Wedding Cake
- 1). Look through wedding magazines and websites for inspiration for your cake. Take notes and cut out pictures of features that appeal to you, such as color, texture, shape and detailing. This will provide you with a foundation to build from when designing your own cake.
- 2). Create a list of flavors and fillings that you would consider using for your cake. Arrange a tasting at a bakery to sample the way the combinations taste to choose the one that is right for you.
- 3). Using your notes and photographs, draw a rough sketch of your wedding cake. Do not worry about getting all of the details right or making the drawing perfect. When you show the drawing to your baker, he will talk over the sketch with you and help you figure out how to implement your ideas.
- 4). Search online for a virtual cake decorating game. This will enable you to design your cake online. Print the finished product to take with you to your baker, in addition to the sketch and the list of flavors.
- 5). Be firm, yet open to new ideas when meeting with your baker. Listen to options that she offers to improve your idea, but do not agree to changes that will make you unhappy.
