The sweetest memory of the wedding...

One of the most special parts of weddings is when the wedding cake arrives. The wedding cake symbolizes the desire of the couples, who come together to share life, to share the feelings of a lifetime they will spend together with their guests.

Cake is considered a symbol of good luck and fertility in most societies. In ancient times, at the end of the wedding ceremonies , bread was broken on the bride's head, and the guests would take breadcrumbs from places to bring good luck to them. In the Middle Ages, married couples kissed each other in a circle of small breads. In the seventeenth century, a French cook began to give a better shape to this bread, which represents productivity and abundance, and produced what we can call the first wedding cake.

One of the most important moments near the end of the night in weddings is the arrival of the cake. Today, wedding cakes , prepared with great care and in assertive designs, have become the most anticipated moments of weddings with their delicious tastes and eye-catching shapes. You can provide integrity by decorating the shape of your cake with various accessories to suit your wedding concept , wedding dress model and wedding venue.

Magnificent wedding cakes are brought to the wedding venues with romantic or cheerful music according to taste. They are definitely the sweetest memories of weddings ...

Now, the multi-layered wedding cakes of the past are leaving their places to low-rise but quite magnificent designs. If a cake model with original models and different decorations is chosen, the cakes are arranged as models and prepared in a way that only allows the bride and groom to cut the first slice with a flashy knife. In the meantime, the real cake is prepared for service in the kitchen and then quickly distributed to the tables of the guests. Wedding cakes, of course, vary according to the season of the wedding date . Since indoor venues are preferred for winter weddings , cakes with cream colors and white are preferred, and for country weddings held in better weather, cakes with pink, salmon or yellow colors, little angel motifs and live flowers are preferred.

You can decorate your cake covered with white or colored cream with a thousand and one accessories suitable for the wedding concept, such as fresh fruits, flowers, angels, stars, hearts, ladybugs, pearl balls, butterflies, bows, seashells, birds, fish, and evil eye beads. When choosing decorations, it is important that you consult with the experts who prepared the cake and take their opinions into consideration, too much decoration can make the wedding cake more sugary than it should be, and change its flavor and aggravate it. It is also important that the wedding cake be light so that it does not disturb the food guests.

Today, the shape of the wedding cake and the decorations that can be applied are at least as wide as your imagination. In the past years, most lively flower decorations were made, this year, colorful flowers prepared with handmade candies are preferred. These flowers, which are almost impossible to distinguish from the real thing, make you feel sweet even before you eat them. If you prefer to decorate with live flowers, using the same flower in your hair or in your hand bouquet will provide a beautiful integrity. The most important detail of the wedding concept is hidden in the details that are compatible with each other as always.

Another issue that should make the difference is the place where the wedding takes place. More tiered cakes are preferred for outdoor weddings. For weddings in indoor ballrooms, more flamboyant cake models should be requested. When it's time to cut the cake at the wedding, the wedding halls use flamboyant sword-shaped cake knives. Traditionally, this knife is tipped before being used. After the bride and groom cut their cake as a slice with this magnificent knife, the attendant separates a slice of cake for the bride and groom to eat. Close to the end of the wedding ceremony, the cake comes to the stage, enriching the visuality of the wedding and the venue, and then distributed to the guests. However, at weddings where young people are on the stage, the cake enters the stage with lively music accompanied by applause, and the music accelerates and the fun can continue.

The time of the cake's appearance can be determined in accordance with the choice of the bride. In order to draw the attention of the guests to the arrival of the cake, you can request that the lights of the hall be dimmed a little before the cake comes to the stage and the volume should be increased a little when the cake music starts. This will turn this moment into a visual and auditory feast with the applause of the guests, accompanied by the cake music you have appeared before.
