1) Traditional Grandeur

Here is a marvelous traditional wedding cake with multiple tiers. Undoubtedly,
traditional designs are mostly round or square in bright white or subtle pastel colors.
As we time travel to the classic eras, traditional wedding cakes are baked in fruit
flavors. Evidently, white is the supreme choice to go for, to get a monochromatic
royal finish. From top to bottom, icing, piping and floral decorations are done in white

more graceful. Even though traditional cakes are designed in 3 tiers, you can choose

over modern and popular cake trends 2021. As you may have noticed, the 2 tier
cake here has a beautiful watercolor touch in a blend of purple, peach and pink tones.
Gorgeous floral decor stands out as a statement piece as well. Buttercream icings are
perfect for creating such hand-painted delicacies. Hand-painted buttercream cakes can
be the best wedding cake design, from messy to clean-cut designs. If your cake is a
round 2-tier model, this modern design will flaunt effortlessly with a side of freshly
plucked flowers.

3) Minimal Yet Phenomenal

If you want a minimal wedding cake with the least decoration, you can opt for a
radiant white neat matte icing with specially curated floral decorations. Plain wedding
cakes can be balanced in one or two tiers to not lose the charm. If baked in multiple
tiers, a clean-cut plain design may appear a bit mundane. To contrast with the
monochromatic finish, you can pick ravishing, fresh flowers, fruits and/or even pretty
bows. Though the exterior is minimal, you are free to experiment and color splash the
interiors as per your ideas. Or, you can keep the internal layers simple just like the
minimal exterior makeover you opted for.

4) Color Blocking

Color blocking is one of the latest wedding cake trends that can be tried by modern
wedding cake lovers. Gear up and get your creative juices flowing! Color blocking
can be done in a variety of styles. Firstly, come down to the number and shades of
colors you wish to see on your wedding cake. It can be starkly contrasting or subtle
with pastel hues. Sharp contrasts often bring a dramatic makeover. As shown in the
image, you can go for just 2 sharp contrasting colors which can even be the classic
black and white combination. A finishing touch is always essential to spice things up.
You may add the initials of bride and groom, to be standing on the top tier. Make sure
to choose attractive flowers which match with the overall design. It can help you
assemble the cake into a desirable form and color palette.

5) Go Gaga

Who doesn't love a modern cake design 2020 with a twist? If you are planning a
simple yet statement wedding cake, this is your one. Here, we see a single-tier simple
round cake with a statement piece crafted on the side. A projecting piece of detailing
crafted on the side with a contrasting color tone adds depth to the rest of the cake. The
detailing appears to be a crusty layer of ganache or chocolate worked on the cake
itself. Similar pieces can be prepared separately or on the cake itself and then later
fixed to the appropriate spot. Flowers are a must to add up the aesthetics. Likewise,
single-tier looks attractive for such wedding cakes.

6) Spatula-Painted Treats

Spatula-painted cakes are for those who love creative and fun designs from the 2020
latest cake designs. It takes practice and creative planning to finish a cake with
spatula painting. Though it may appear simple and easy to achieve, the truth is vice

versa. It takes intense care to not overdo the cake by excessive and messy layering.
Once finished and decorated with flowers and fruits, it is the prettiest wedding cake
with a charming artsy vibe. Just like the design we discussed above, a single-tier will
be most appropriate for this design. But, if you wish to have a bigger multiple-tiered
cake, then you can opt for a 2 tier cake. Make sure to discuss your plans with the
baker so that he or she can balance out the design perfectly.

7) Whipped Cream Stories

Whipped cream and hand piped dots make a perfect combination if you are aiming for
a fairy-tale wedding cake. Whipped cream decoration on wedding cakes has been in
the industry for the longest time in the 21st century. It is a common yet beautiful
decoration found in all parts of the world. Piping out the whipped cream is a joyful
activity to do by every baker. The design can be customized according to the couple’s
love for whipped cream layering. For those who are addicted to whipped cream on
cakes, covering a whole tier with whipped cream roses will be the most joyous thing
in the world. The other tiers can be designed with minimal hand-piped designs to
balance out.

8) Crumble-Coated Flower Dream

Crumble-coating is a fun cake coating with a partially finished feel. The coating is

messy yet utterly aesthetic, also spiraling out pure cottagecore vibes. Loud flower
cakes with crumble coating are a real treat! Non-edible flowers are often used instead

of edible flowers in this design to elevate the beauty of the cake. Crumble-coated
cakes are often found with a flowerfetti decoration. A flowerfetti cake is created by
casually throwing beautiful delicate flower petals which can be either edible or non-
edible all over the tiers. Ribbons or bows can be added to push up the elegance.

9) Beauty in Beads

Beaded cakes are something to be raved about in the cake trends for 2021. Edible
fondant beads or edible sugar pearls are created by bakers to fix on the wedding cake
for bringing in an exceptional shine. Guests often pluck out the pearls doubting the
edibility of the it. But, if made edible, the pearls are never going to hurt your tummy.
Hence, it is very important to prepare edible beads or pearls to ensure a safe and
enjoyable cake feast. Remember to point out to your baker that you want edible pearls
and/or beads on your cake, just to avoid any sort of misunderstanding. Single or
multiple, the number of tiers is never a chaotic choice in this design. Don’t forget to
choose stunning mini installations and floral decorations to level up your beaded
wedding cake.

10) Themed Ecstasy

Choosing a color theme for your cake is still an interesting step. Initially, make sure to
pick a color you and your partner love. And, move forward with the design by adding
monochromatic elements. You can pick different shades of color to add some volume
to the design. Or, you can even stick to a single shade to go classic. Icing and
detailing can be done as per your dreams. You can experiment with a variety of styles

since nothing can go disproportionate on a monochromatic design if created carefully.
From hand painting to candy decorations, the options are limitless according to the
wedding cake trends 2020.
Wedding cake design is a crucial part of your preparations. Take your time and find a
trustworthy baker to discuss your ideas. Most importantly, pick a flavor that both of
you love. Aside from the exterior decorations and non-edible flowers, the flavor of the
cake is something that pulls you to mark a remembrance of the day. We hope that you
are feeling at ease after skimming through our most loved wedding cake trends. We
