Filling Wedding Cakes With Mousse

I think every bride has a problem in deciding the wedding cake. If you though that choose the wedding dress was the hardest part, then you will be surprised how hard it is to choose your wedding cake. You have to decide the shape of your cake, round, square, hexagon, or any other shape, the size, the number of layers, the cake flavors, the filling, the icing, the frosting, the decorations. You want your guests to be impressed by the design of your wedding cake, but you also want to impress them with the taste of your wedding cake.

Even the most sophisticate designs are useless if the cake doesn't taste delicious. Both taste and look are important, that is why it is hard to decide the type of cake you want for your reception. The flavors and filling and also the decorations should reflect the location and the season in which your wedding will take place. Choose the flavors of the season, for a summer wedding you can choose flavors like lemon, orange, pineapple cream filling, for an autumn wedding you can choose fillings like apple cream, pumpkin cream, grape cream, for a winter wedding you can choose flavors like cinnamon and ginger bread.

The mousse filling is rich but lighter than any other type of filling and is a great alternative to the heavy buttercream and ganache filling. The mousse filling is great for any type of cake, yellow, red velvet cake, milk chocolate cake, carrot cake. If the cake is rich the filling should be lighter for example the mousse filling. The filling should complement the cake. The type of filling can change the cake recipe. When you decide on the filling take into consideration the location of your wedding. Mousse filling is not for any type of wedding, if you are planning an outdoor, beach wedding, then you will need a a thicker filling because the mousse filling can soak and melt into the cake and will create the pudding like effect if you keep the cake in the sun for too long. So have sure the cake will have the right temperature and won't melt.
