Wedding Cake Guide
Welcome to our Newcastle and Hunter Valley, NSW wedding cake guide, where couples can embark on their delicious journey to find the perfect wedding cake. As you plan your special day, remember that the wedding cake is not just a tradition with roots dating back to medieval times (when they used to toss bread at brides, believe it or not!), but it's also a statement of style and sophistication.
Wedding cake trends are taking center stage, offering a blend of timeless elegance and modern flair. Allow us to introduce you to these delectable trends: The Vintage Wedding Cake and The Millefoglie Traditional Italian Wedding Cake.
Vintage Wedding Cake
Whether your wedding theme is steeped in vintage charm or you're simply drawn to the allure of classic aesthetics, a vintage-inspired wedding cake can effortlessly complement your big day. It's the art of reviving the old to create something new, adding a touch of 'something old' to your cherished wedding traditions. A Vintage Wedding Cake exudes a delightful hint of nostalgia, ranging from a single-tier delicacy to a towering eight-tier masterpiece. Crafted from a luscious classic sponge cake base, it can be customized with a variety of flavors. Picture this: smooth and velvety vanilla icing meticulously piped to perfection, often crowned with delectable cherries. And don't forget the sweet touch of romance with a piped 'just married' message on top.
But here's the secret: not all Vintage Cakes are created equal. As a wedding enthusiast, I've had the privilege of tasting and photographing numerous creations. Among the many talented cake artisans in Newcastle, two stand out as my absolute favorites: Butter Bakery and Hello Naomi. I must confess, I consider myself incredibly fortunate when couples generously share a slice of cake with me at the end of the wedding night, and some slices are so enormous they could practically double as a hat!
Millefogile Traditional Italian Wedding Cake
Get ready to fall in love with "Milliefogile" – the cake that's here to make all your wedding dreams come true.
Milliefogile is all about capturing the magic of an Italian wedding in cake form. Picture this: layers of chantilly custard cream, flaky puff pastry, and a luscious topping of fresh, juicy berries all dusted with a delicate sprinkle of powdered sugar. It's like Italy in every bite!
The name "Milliefogile" is pretty fancy, right? Well, it's French for "thousand," and it's there for a reason. This cake isn't just any cake – it's a masterpiece made with a thousand layers of love and craftsmanship. Yep, you heard that right, a thousand!
When we say Milliefogile is a statement wedding cake, we mean it! It's not just delicious; it's divine! Your taste buds are in for a treat like no other, and your guests will be talking about it for years to come.
