all too well!

2. Aside from everything mentioned, the wedding cake is one of the most
important items in the event That's because the cutting and feeding of the
cake by the bride and groom signifies their first meal together as a married
couple As it becomes the focus of attention at some point during the wedding
affair, many couples want their cake to be just perfect

3. To help couples choose what style of cake is stylish and suits them best, here
are five fabulous new trends in wedding cakes to choose from Black and
White This style of cake has become popular in 2009 and is set to continue
that way for the year ahead This style diaper cake is inspired by the fashion
runways, with their current fondness for monochromatics and black Spanish
lace

4. You can have your wedding cake designed in this classic color scheme, using
white fondant icing and black or dark brown accents This design works
wonderfully if the design coordinates with the wedding dress or the
bridesmaids' gowns Hexagonal or square shapes The typical heart or circular
shaped wedding cakes have now become too conventional for many couples

5. So, cube-layered or hexagonal layered cakes have recently become an
emerging trend These angular cakes can also double as lovely centerpieces
during the reception, especially if they sport geometric accents in their designs
Blue is the hue The color blue in wedding cakes has also become popular of
late with soon-to-be-married couples

6. Shades of blue, sometimes meshed with green like aquamarine or turquoise,
have made an appearance with couples who prefer a colorful cake
Incorporating this cake trend with a tropical wedding theme will work
fabulously, especially if you use sky blue, aquamarine and turquoise as the
base colors of your cake icing Decorating the cake with white, silver, lilac or
light grey accents will liven up your overall cake design

7. Think pink The color pink is projected to be used even more in 2010 as a
wedding motif So it's only natural to draw on pink for the wedding cake,
coordinating with your bridesmaids' dresses and bridal gown accents Try
using pink as the base color of your cake icing and decorating it with white,
silver or pink embellishments and flowers

8. But if that's too much pink for your liking, try white as the cake base icing, and
pink for the accents, like fresh roses Square cupcakes Using a tower of
cupcakes instead of a traditional wedding cake was also a huge trend in 2009

9. It's become fashionable to use cupcakes, which conveniently eliminates the
need for a skilled and designated cake cutter In this way, the guests each
enjoy an individual treat of their own, with ease

10. Because it's practical, cute and inexpensive, it's expected that this trend will
continue throughout the year, but with a twist: 2010's cupcakes will often
actually be square-shaped mini-cakes, while still reflecting the year's most
popular colors and designs
