Three’s a Crowd

As if choosing one Delectable Culinary Dessert wasn’t enough of a task, the new trend for us to take note is multiple Collections of Cakes.  Like little sugar stories, cleverly designed to take centre stage and offer a bounty of taste and aesthetic delight.

Take the humble Cube-block cake, simplistic in it’s design, topped with fresh open Tulips. This on it’s own would make for a charming display, but if you have four of them… It makes for a real statement! I also love the innovative use of colour and design shown here in this collection of Green and White gift-wrapped cakes by Planet Cake. By presenting a set of Three cakes each with unique style, dimension and creative design makes for real eye-candy, that you just wouldn’t dare to unwrap!

This trend in cake art can be achieved in many ways depending on your personal taste and budget. Work with your cake designer and mix and match colours, icing styles, decorations and cake dimensions to create a visually appealing set. Experiment with height and layers, shapes and sizes and not to mention take full advantage of the opportunity to select multiple flavours! But if all this choice is still not enough, take the idea a step further and really blow the socks off your guests! Treat them to a miniature cake all of their own. Too nice to eat and a not-to-be forgotten treat that acts more as a stylish accessory than a dessert. ♥
