Yorkshire's Sophia's Cake Boutique tells us how to incorporate colour into a wedding cake

How can you incorporate a bright and bold wedding theme into your cake design? We asked Yorkshire's Sophia's Cake Boutique...

There are many ways to add vibrant tones to your cake. The most popular way is through the addition of flowers. Wedding cakes decorated with blooms and foliage are undeniable showstoppers and have been a staple of weddings since traditions began. There's an abundance of flowers to choose from so you're really spoiled for choice. Try a pop of colour with a small cluster of florals or have them cascading from top to bottom.

A good wedding cake designer will also be a skilled sugar florist and can replicate almost any flower in sugar form. The best thing is, they won't wilt on the day and can be kept almost indefinitely as a keepsake if looked after properly.

If you're more daring, why not have your wedding cake finished in a bright hue? The cake can be covered in traditional fondant icing, buttercream or even ganache that's been dyed to a specific colour.

The current wedding trend for buttercream art and painted cakes is growing and would work perfectly!
