Nashville Wedding Cakes
The cake is the traditional finale to your wedding reception. However, today your 'wedding desert' does not
have to be a wedding cake. Edible wedding favors such as decorated wedding cookies or chocolate truffles
provide an enjoyable alternative and help your wedding stand out. When picking your desert consider all
the options you have and remember to taste each one.
Cake Bakers
Do you want a wedding cake or an extraordinary wedding cake? The answer is obvious. When
choosing the person who will bake your wedding cake consider their experience, artistic ability
and the cost.
Using fondant icing your cake baker will be able to create a cake with a
ovely alabaster-like finish that you see in magazines. Traditional buttercream might be less costly
but not as artistic.
Your budget is important. Wedding cakes start at $2.00 per serving, and a one-of-a-kind sugar
masterpiece can be $20 a serving. Only you can determine what your wedding cake should be.
Ask how many servings you will actually need because every cake baker bases this on a slightly
different serving size.
Your baker should be able to answers all your questions and provide guidance in selecting your wedding cake.
Chocolate Fountain Rentals
Do you want an added touch of elegance? Then consider a Chocolate Fountain Rental. These
cascading rivers of chocolate are beautiful and will attract notice. Guests will have fun as they
dip fruit, marshmellows and petite fours. A Chocolate Fountain will make your wedding even more
memorable.
