About Miss Dalmatian

I must warn you: this may be my first post about wedding cakes, but it will most certainly not be my last. You see, I have a mouth full of sweet teeth (and miraculously enough not a single one of them has ever had a cavity!). Every member of my family is a huge fan of candies, cookies, cakes, and most of all: frosting. When we were little we used to express our desire for a little something sweet after a solid meal by explaining that our dinner shelf was full, but our dessert shelf was empty!

Clearly, wedding cakes were one of the first things I started bookmarking for inspiration when we got engaged. When I look back on this mouth-watering section of my wedding folder, I notice a certain trend: ruffles! This is not too surprising, given I am a self-confessed ruffle-aholic. Here is a little sample of how this addiction translated into cake-spiration:

Just as Mr. Dalmatian did not go for my ruffled dress-spiration, I have a feeling he is not going to be such a fan of the ruffled wedding cakes—although everything is better when it’s edible, right? I’m not too worried though; I am more than willing to spend lots of time discussing and debating cake and frosting!

What wedding cake trends did you fall for?

Are you a sweets person or a savory person?

@Miss Honey: Stay tuned - I have also fallen hard for the ombre trend.
@Miss Hawk: I know! There are so many swoon-worthy cakes out there.
@kmnowlan: Thanks! I don’t think Mr. D is up for the ruffles, but I always love to see pics of any cakes…or anything with ruffles!!
@TinyTina: I know! The detail is crazy.
@Mrs. Pony: There’s more coming, I could talk cake for days!

I love the second cake too! I think I could do whatever I wanted with the cake, honestly, as long as Mr. Mole thought it tasted good!
