Fall Wedding Cakes

The natural beauty of the fall season draws brides all over the U.S to host their wedding in this breathtaking three-month period! The leaves are turning color, the days are cooler, and there’s a sense of renewal in the air that makes it feel like the perfect time to share your wedding vows!

The main issue fall brides have noted to me in the past is that they love the season – but don’t love the fall-themed options that come with getting married at that time.

Maybe you love the rich colors of the season, but don’t want to see actual leaf shapes on everything from your reception decor to wedding favors, but what’s a bride to do? Ignore the beauty of the season?

It seems the only answer is to create a new variation on an old theme, so read on for fall wedding cake inspiration!

Hand-Painted Elements & Appliques

Tasteful appliques are an excellent way to add the season’s theme to your fall wedding cake! Appliques can be abstract shapes or in leaf motifs, but this non-traditional use of fondant will make your cake stand out from the crowd. Re-imagine the fall theme and put this gorgeous decorating technique with your own painted fall wedding cake.

Flowers

Real or sugar-crafted, flowers are a wonderful way to add fall coloring to your wedding without having to use leaves or other traditional fall motifs! Adding them artfully to your cake can be the perfect way to incorporate this theme.

Sculpted Elements

One of the most wonderful things about wedding cakes is the versatility of icing and fondant! Bakers are artists of the highest degree and between this incredible skill and a host of three dimensional decorating options, adding fall colors, themes, and elements to your cake can create a gorgeous result!
