Wedding Cake Trends: Black and White

August 3, 2009 by

Black and White wedding cakes are trendy. Many brides and grooms choose this color scheme because it looks classy and elegant. Using a black and white wedding cake can allow you to easily match the rest of the wedding decor.

Traditionally wedding cakes tend to be white. These days cakes take on many different colors and patterns, including black and white. For those brides and grooms who want a little something different, but they want the cake to be mostly white they can ask their baker about adding just a touch of black with small patterns and lines.

To create a more stunning look, many people choose to have the layered cake alternate in color. So if the cake is 5 layered 3 are white and 2 are black, or vice versa.

If you are looking for more than just black and white alternating tiers you could consider using design elements in your cake. These could include polka dots, swirls, hearts and diamonds. If you are looking for a truly stunning design you might want to have black leaves and flowers on a white wedding cake.

If you want a black and white cake but are still looking for a touch of color, that can be done too. You might decide to use flower petals either directly on your cake or artfully positioned on the cake table. If you like the idea of color but you don’t want flowers, you can ask your baker to see samples of where they blended in small amounts of color into the cake design.

When choosing a topper or any other accessories for this cake you should make sure they match. They do not have to be black and white like the cake, but they also should not seem out of place. You probably do not want an overly colorful cake topper, some color is appropriate but too much will take away from the theme of the cake.
