The 2019 Wedding Cake Trends You Have To See


Eating cake is one thing that will never go out of style. We don’t discriminate against flavors, whether it be buttercream icing or fondant, or how many calories it is. We WILL eat it.

However, eating cake is extra special when it looks as good as it tastes. That’s why we are always on the lookout for the hottest trends. We have found six of the biggest wedding cake trends for 2019, so you can have your cake and eat it too. These cakes have gold details, bold designs, pops of colour.

Here are six wedding cake trends for 2019.

Geometric Shapes

Unconventional cake shapes is an emerging trend in the wedding industry. Sharp angels are complemented with bold marbled colours.

Floral Arrangements

We don’t think there will ever be a time when floral arrangement on cakes isn’t trendy. Play with textures using berries and green foliage or keep thing classic with beautiful blooms. Love it or hate it, this trend isn’t going anywhere.

White Texture

Keeping within crisp white colour scheme can look flat unless you play with texture. This trend keeps everything thing aesthetically clean, but still interesting.

Letter Cakes

Spell out your love for each other with a letter cake. This cake is a new trend that is especially good for people who aren’t fond of fondant as these cakes are usually naked from icing.
