Wedding Cakes

Roman Empire Wedding Cakes

Tradition says that if the bride and groom cut the wedding cake with the knife together,  means they will share many things in life. All the people say that if the woman cuts single the wedding cake, she will work hard in her life. I hope anyone to not feel offended, but personally, I think that the moment when cutting the wedding cake is one of the most semnicative events of a wedding.




And beacause for once in your life you are the bride and is the bride’s right to choose her wedding  cake, I decided to give full support to you in some specialties. You heard of course about cakes made  … at home. I first learned from a friend to make them, then I saw with my own eyes how is “build” the wedding cake in the pastry: bags of powder and buckets of cream or other fillings that are prolonged with water / whipped cream / margarine. Sometimes  products are put at cold with 2-3 weeks before serving. The eggs, whipped cream, vanilla cream curds have become a trifle too expensive for laboratories. Mixes have swallowed the market and our market has swallowed us,the  naive greedy.

So I was very excited when my frined brought us a tray of cookies from the refrigerator, for tasting. “-We want three types of cakes. Fine. Lightweight. Various. “And she made us chocolate mousse, fruit mousse,  and a ness cake ” candy “, all with 100% natural ingredients. Actually, not having a wedding cake is not an original idea, but goes back to the age which began in the Roman Empire. And then were offered to the guests several alternatives to the wedding cakes and cakes to choose from. The only  “whole ” wedding cake was passed over the bride’s head to bring luck to the couple. Thousands of years later, moving the wedding cake over the bride’s head was turned  into the “ introduction of the bride’s head in the wedding cake”, probably without any symbolism.

After the wedding dress and the bouquet, perhaps the most important detail is the wedding cake that you will provide at the table of all guests. The wedding cake is an integral part of any wedding, and for this reason many people think it has always been part of this great party.

As with any popular custom, there is something in it and in this idea, although the history of the wedding cake is much more fascinating and more charming. In the Roman Empire at the wedding, guests were not served with a slice of wedding cake but with many variations of cookies and cakes, all part of the feast. In some parts of the Roman Empire a whole wedding cake was passed over the head of the bride to bring luck in the future of the bride and groom.

Later, each table companions brought a small wedding cake when they came to the wedding, which they sat on a metal tray, like the wedding cake that we serve today. The difference is that today, most wedding cakes are stacked. The bride and groom had to kiss over a wedding cake for good luck in marriage. Wedding cakes began to change and become increasingly larger from the 19th century when refrigerators were invented which helped the ingredients to resist longer. Many modern couples have adopted personal styles when it comes to wedding  cakes, taking into account their preferences and passions. The figure of the bride and groom on top of the wedding cake can portray a scene from their past or a hobby.
