NAKED CAKE

Naked cakes like this one from Gigi's Cupcakes have been all the rage and we will continue to see this trend well into this coming season. Adding lush blooms or greenery gives this a simple, minimalist and beautiful look.

METALLICS 

Adding metallics into your cake design like this sparkly gold cake from Creative Confections allows you to tie in your tablescape with your cake and many other elements of the overall event design you may have never dreamed of before. 


TEXTURES

Have some fun and play around with creative textured designs as shown here on these pretty classic white cakes from Carl's Cakes & Market Street Catering (left) and Craig's Cake Shop (right). You can also alternate the tiered layers with a different design on each one. 

WATERCOLOR

Taking the world by storm, watercolor cakes might make your heart flutter. This cake from Craig's Cake Shop is inspired by watercolor paintings and shows beautifully painted designs. 

If you are a modern couple, you might love a more unique design as shown here from Gigi's Cupcakes with different shapes, textures, colors and of course pure deliciousness.
