Wedding Cake for Beach Theme Party

The presence of a wedding cake has become a tradition in a wedding party. Since you are considering a beach theme wedding cake, you are obviously not a slave to those traditions. You can create or decorate a wedding cake as you want. There is no rule for decorate your wedding cake for beach theme party.Your beach theme wedding cake can be anything you want it to be. But most important is a wedding cake should be delicious, so you and your guests can enjoy the cake.

The Size of The Cake
The size of wedding cake depending on how many guests are you planning to have. If you have your cake made professionally it can range in price anywhere from about $3.00 to $16.00 per slice. A “slice” is normally considered to be 2 ounces or, approximately 4×2 inch. The range in price will depend on how much intricate detail you want on it. If the cake you choose is very labor intensive, you can expect higher prices. If you are on a tight budget, keep it simple.

The Shape of The Cake
A beach theme wedding cake can be any size, shape or description. Be creative. If you have an idea for your cake, sketch it out on paper and take it to that talented friend, relative or your chosen bakery. If you can imagine it, someone can make it.

Do not limit your thinking to a two or three tier cake. It can be round, square, a sheet cake, a sculpted cake, individual mini cakes, cupcakes or even cookies! Some brides even choose a one or two layer, individual wedding cake on each guest table rather than the traditional large cake at the head table. This is a nice idea because it also serves as the table centerpiece. This eliminates the added expense associated with having a wedding centerpiece at each table.

Some things that also should be noted and recorded in memory:

Since your reception may be on the beach, consider the sun! If you are having a dawn or dusk ceremony, heat from the sun will probably not be a major factor. However, if you are having your wedding midday, consider an “ornamental” cake. By that I mean, not edible with the exception of perhaps the bottom layer if you and the groom plan to cut it. You don’t want your creation to melt!
Consider draping your cake in a decorative manner with tulle to keep the bugs and sand out of it. It would be
beautiful yet practical.
Purchase decorative, individual cake boxes. Fill them and perhaps tie your wedding program or thank you to them with
ribbon. Keep them in a cooler until time to pass them out to your guests. They will serve as your wedding favor, killing two birds with one stone!
Make your own beach theme wedding cake. Look inside the Duncan Hines Cake Mix Magic. The instruction for baking tiered cakes are printed on the inside of the box! You can do it. If you can’t, I’ll bet you know a friend who could! In every town there is a friend or a “friend of a friend” who makes beautiful wedding cakes. It’s a hobby for them. They love doing it! Of course they still want to be paid, but not the ridiculous prices that a professional will charge you. So find them.
