Everyone wants to perfect wedding with great friends, great food, and a night full of fun. Since the cutting of the cake is such a visible moment during your reception, you want to be sure to have the right cake for your event.
It used to be that you could wait to order your cake until about four months out from your wedding. Now it’s becoming more critical that you book early so you’re not disappointed when the cake companies are full on your wedding date. You also don’t want to settle on something rather than choose your type of cake and icing.
Choosing your cake and icing flavors will be critical to your guests enjoyment of it. No one wants to have a Hawaiian wedding with a vanilla cake. Change things up, and get the advice of your baker, to ensure that you guests have the best cake they’ve ever had. They’ve come all the way to Hawaii and you should reward them with good food and cake.
Tasting the different cakes is absolutely critical because we all love cake but there’s a huge difference between a wedding cake and your Hawaii wedding cake that makes people have visions of the Pacific Islanders founding the islands all those years ago.
Do you want a beautiful, elegant, fun, crazy, or some other kind of cake? It would be helpful to know before you start looking about bakeries that might accommodate you. This way you can see, taste, and feel the different cakes with that style and avoid wasting time on cakes you don’t want or need. Find the colors, styles, and shapes that interest you most to match you overall theme.
Other ways to make your cake the centerpiece is to make smaller cakes for each of the tables and everyone can choose their favorite to eat from. You could provide several flavors, styles, colors, etc. and everyone would be talking about it.
If you’re having a large wedding, or if you can’t find a baker for your date, there’s always another option in the making of a show cake and a real cake. This way your guests will be enamored by the beauty of this cake for show out on your table but they can eat a regular cake (that still tastes great) but maybe doesn’t cost as much. This is especially helpful for large parties over 250 guests.
If you need something totally unique you can always turned inward and find something about each other that you can share with your guests. Some ideas are cake toppers that have your faces on them, or your favorites sports teams logo as your topper. Anything to bring the two of you together in front of your guests is what your Hawaii wedding reception is all about.
