The Most Wow-Worthy Wedding Cakes To Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth

As someone who snuck away during the wedding to devour an entire slice of my cake, I am very much a sweets fan. Not only does a cake need to taste good, it needs to catch your eye. Typically, cakes are the cornerstone of the dessert table and should shine and hold their own. To get you inspired for satisfying your own sweet tooth and eye for design, here are the most wow-worthy wedding cakes.

Two All-White Cakes That Are Anything But Boring

Joy Proctor commissioned this exquisite cake by MonAnnie Cakes, which was inspired by an ornate ceiling within a private estate in the Cotswolds. I think it’s almost too stunning to cut!

This delightful beauty by Bottega Louie graced the wedding of the founder of Flutter Mag for her Santa Barbara wedding. It’s always been a favorite in my book and will be forever due to its timeless and feminine appeal.

A Cake Made for Summer and Color Lovers

Cakes certainly don’t have to be white and this one by Ruze Cake House proves it. Vibrant and summery, this four-tier beauty makes me want to live in summer colors permanently.

When Cake and Flowers Become a Match Made in Heaven

Can we talk about how perfect these flowers by Kelly Kaufman Design are on this exquisite Maggie Austin Cake creation? The flowers are abundant, yet their delicate nature keeps them from overwhelming the cake. Oh, and that linen choice by Joy Proctor is absolutely fabulous.

A Cake That Truly Belongs in Spring Time

Hey There, Cupcake! created this springy and chic cake that she decorated with wafer paper flowers and sliced lemons. Those little meringue dollops totally stole my heart at first sight!

A Cake So Detailed It Deserves a Spot in a Museum

To say I could stare at this The Biltmore-designed cake for hours is an understatement. Between its five tiers and the sheer amount of flowers, what’s not to love!?

Great Cakes Come in Small Packages (Wrapped in Bows)

This blush-mauve beauty might be small and simple, but it makes a bold statement. Designed by A Bake Shop, it’s monochrome icing perfectly matched the trailing bow wrapped between the tiers.

A Cake with Just a Touch of Edge

Ok, I’ll admit that I am a little bit of a Hey There, Cupcake! fan girl. I mean, she made my own wedding cake, so I can’t not show more of her stunning designs. This cake has just enough mood with its black brush strokes that feminine brides with a little edge would love it!

A Cake with a Whole Lot of Edge

Usually inspiration here on Style Me Pretty is pretty bright and airy, but I can’t help but share just one totally moody cake. In fact, it’s one of my most highly Pinned images. Another Hey There, Cupcake! design, this black cake features a feminine wafer paper floral design and pops of gold. It’s so versatile that it could be seen in a glamorous ballroom wedding or at a high-fashion goth-chic celebration.

A Charming Cake for Pastel Lovers

Last but certainly not least, this charming cake features delicate pastel adornments. Lele Patisserie’s darling three-tier gem would have all of your guests awing over its detail.
