The beauty of Black and White wedding cakes.


As I meet with my brides to find their perfect cake vision I am often asked about black and white cakes. Although I've talked to brides about black and white designs I have never done a black and white cake!  I have done some lovely sugar flowers in black, but I hope one day to take on a cake and look forward to bringing a brides vision to life. But in the mean time I have decided to add (to my collection of pictures) some beautiful black and white cakes. Again these are not my creations but I think are some stunning classic looks that deserve to be shown and shared again.
 This is a beautiful cake with lovely piping.
This next one is not the traditional round cake but square cakes. Nicely done with dark flowers and lovely piping. I really like the dividers with a single black ribbon going down the side.


This one is very elegant, however I think I would have put a lovely large flower on the top. The top looks like it's missing something  to me. Beautiful art on the middle tier.


This one reminds me of a movie -My Fair Lady in the scene where all the ladies wore those beautiful large hats to the horse race. A classic look that I absolutely love.

Another work of art, beautifully done with floral design and a single elegant flower.

Here are some other note-worthy pictures of unique black and white ideas:




I hope this helps if you are thinking about a black and white cake.

Thanks for reading-- please share your ideas and pictures.
