The cake is the jewel of the wedding reception. Every bride wants her cake to be beautiful, delicious and memorable. In the summer, there are some special considerations that will help ensure that your wedding cake is as perfect as you will sleep. Here are five tips for summer wedding cakes that every bride should know.One: Choose your frosting with caution. For an outdoor wedding, it pays to be prudent in selecting frosting. Fondant is the best option for a cake on a hot summer day, because butter cream and whipped cream melt and ruin the appearance of your wedding cake. To improve the taste of fondant icing, ask your baker to apply a layer of buttercream frosting below. If you simply can not be a wedding cake with fondant, with the catering service to keep your cake refrigerated until 30 minutes before the ceremony of cutting the cake. It can be deployed on a table decorated for a great presentation, and your frosting will be intact.
Two: Protect your cake heat and sun. Even a wedding cake fondant should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Always place the cake table in a protected place under a tent. Many people do not believe in protecting the cake from the sun to an indoor wedding, but the summer sun can come burning through large windows. Request that the cake is displayed to direct sunlight for any summer wedding, indoors or out.
Three: Think about the light. Rich chocolate cakes have become very popular in recent years, but lighter flavor will be best for a summer wedding. A cake with lemon curd between the layers is a light and delicious choice for dessert for summer wedding. Another great flavor is a delicious lemon cake with coconut frosting. If citrus is not your thing, a light angel food cake would be nice. The light and airy cake can not support the weight of several levels, for what they believe shows a trio of coordinating the pumpkin pies. It would be absolutely beautiful to frost each in a different pastel color.
