This cake was prepared for a wedding that was held on Valentine’s Day, 2010.  The cake was covered with white wedding butter cream icing and I added red accent dots and black satin ribbon.  A Monogram for the top of the cake completes this “Simple But Elegant” design along with fresh flower accents.

Family and Friends

They mean well, really. But this is your wedding cake, the finale of a long day and usually the highlight of the evening’s festivities. Please don’t let a hobbyist attempt to create your cake or a friend who has taken a “few classes” in cake decorating. Let the professionals handle this task and don’t worry about anything. We are trained to know what to do if the cake “leans.” However, a good decorator will not let the cake leave the store if it is leaning! We know what to do if the border gets ruined. I even bring a level with me to test the table that the cake will be placed on to make sure I’m starting at zero. I am only as good as the photographs show. I always give myself at least two hours prior to your start time to set up the wedding cake so that I may make any last minute adjustments necessary to make it perfect. Your friend/family will be in a hurry to get it done in time to attend your wedding and then to get to the reception. They won’t think about how level the table is or isn’t nor will they bring an extra cake box for your anniversary cake to be placed in when the wedding cake is disassembled for cutting…like I do. I also provide instructions on how to freeze and thaw it one year later.

Please let the professionals take care of your wedding cake needs. Your friends and family are there to help you celebrate your special day. They are not there to work.  That’s why you pay me.

Michigan Wedding Cake Design on a Budget

Michigan Wedding Cake Design on a Budget

Wedding cakes can be very expensive but Party Cakes will keep your budget in mind when designing the cake.  With the use of  ”faux” layers, additional height can be added to the cake.  Then the cost will substantially drop by suppling double layer kitchen cakes for the additional servings needed to accommodate the number of guests at the reception.   Sometimes it is not even necessary to supply a piece of cake for every guest because the venue may offer an additional dessert complimenting the wedding cake.  So the bride can save more money!  The “faux” layers are made from styrofoam and are decorated like the real cake layers.  If the bride chooses to return the “faux” layers, she will be rewarded with money.  Call Party Cakes in Berkley, MI at 248-541-CAKE (2253) for more information on how to save money on the wedding cake.
