Usually a lot of couples choose a simple wedding cake because of the low price and because they save time. Looking for something too exotic requires a lot of time and patience.  A wedding planning process can be quit stressful so if you want to keep it simple, the atmosphere can still be elegant. You need a plan; you need to decide the shape, designs and all the details. For finding some fresh ideas, you should check out some cookbooks and photographs of wedding cakes.

One of the most important parts of a cake is the edges so you have to be careful because the edges should be perfect. You can hide this detail by putting a ribbon around each of the layers. It will keep the attention off the borders. Another great tip is to use flowers. You can add natural or flax flowers to your cake. It will look beautiful and everybody will concentrate on the flower not on something else. If you use flax flowers then use it as a contemporary look. Then the bride can keep them as a memory. Even if you choose a simple wedding cake, you don’t have to give up your creative ideas. You can bring improvements to your simple wedding cake and it will look unique.

Usually the classic wedding cake icing butter cream is made up of mixed butter and sugar. It’s very, very sweet and it can give your cake a great color and design. Also it’s really easy to work with it but if it’s summer time you should be really careful because if the base of your cake is made of butter cream, it can easily melt and in this way everything will be ruined. Simple cake weddings can look as good as very expensive ones. You can color them as you wish. With powder-based icing colors, brushed on the surface of your cake you can get a strong or light color. You can find these powders in any bakery shop and the price is really ok.To keep the prices down, you should definitely choose a simple wedding cake. If you chose  to do it yourself you can involve all the family in the making of the cake. It can be a great experience.
