This post is dedicated to cake, sweet cake. I LOVE wedding cakes. Not necessarily what’s inside (I don’t really like cake, more on that later), but the beautiful, delicate, gorgeous outside. Needless to say, as soon as the FI and I were engaged, the cake hunt had begun. I scoured pages and pages of wedding cakes before we chose “the one”. Here are a few of my favorites:

The repressed prepster in me fell hard over this plaid confection

Le GateauxA stunning cake can be the piece de resistance of your reception. Hundreds of handmade Victorian sugar roses create a delicate border around this square cake. Fluted embossed fondant and gold sugar cording complete each tier. Cake by April Reed Cake Design; format tray by CB2.

I drooled all over the keyboard thanks to this fondant covered Victorian beauty

Square CakeA traditional white cake gets a modern makeover, with bold silver and gold fondant scrollwork on each tier, and a sleek square shape.Cake, $12 per slice, Cheryl Kleinman Cakes, (718) 237-2271See more silver and gold details

Square tiers, regal scroll work, how can you say no?

Seriously, macarons? Picking up my jaw now.

How amazing does this look in all of its unfrosted glory?

Can you guess which one we chose?

@Ms Potato Chips: How did you know?! The guy on top is so “Lumber Jack Chic”, which is exactly what we’re going for!

I think macaroons might win out.

I would totally do the unfrosted one - so cute, and I hate frosting! I perennially love the Martha one, too.

I’d have to say either the Square tiers, with regal scroll work or the Martha one. These are all pretty cool!

I love the unfrosted one! That is totally awesome, because frosting gets all over EVERYTHING! You could even have a “dress the cake” buffet with a bunch of different toppings/ frostings for those who would not *dare* to eat cake dry.

I just love the look of the macaroons, a bit over the top pink but it’s super pretty!

I really like the square cake with the scroll work! Although, I’m much more for the simple decorations and some high quality buttercream icing
