From three-tiered wedding cake perfections to doughnut walls, mini-cakes, and bundt cakes, our brides gave us the sweetest inspiration to share with our readers in our latest issue. We give our Spring/Summer 2019 issue all the credit on bringing sweets to the spotlight in the most delicious way. Bravo! to our Central Minnesota Brides for topping the trend charts with the sweetest treat trends of 2019.
TIERED CAKES
Wedding desserts are no longer traditional by any means, which makes deciding on your favorite just a little harder. Two, three, and four-tiered cakes are now designed with color, embellishments, metallics, floral, and texture. Isabella + Michael’s four-tiered cake is a timeless creation of chic and tradition.

STATEMENT CAKE
This beautiful goddess was created for our Shades of Color editorial published in our S/S issue. The combination of this deep green paired beautifully with gold metallics and marble accents is a stunning statement piece to say the least. If your cake is just as important as your gown, then a statement cake of this perfection is simply suited for your wedding goals.

TRIM THE CAKE
If your the bride that’s still a fan of the traditional white wedding cake but likes to keep things current, consider trimming your cake with bold florals from your local florist. If that’s not enough, add charm and accent your traditional white cake with a naked cake, nearly-naked cake, or the new trend setter; the almost dressed cake. Keeping up? Almost dressed is like the powdered doughnut cake of your dreams.

MINI CAKES
To have and to hold, cake? Yes please! Mini everything has our attention these days; especially mini cakes. How darling is this mini cake created for our Shades of Color editorial in the latest issue. It is simply perfect for snacking, holding, and photo snapping moments like this.

NOT-A-CAKE
Some say the not-a-cake trends are taking over, we strongly disagree. There has always been a bride not entertained by traditional cake nostalgia. We’ve seen cookie bars, candy bars, and hot cocoa bars over the years but 2019 really wowed us with doughnut cakes, doughnut walls, and of course doughnut bars. Do-nut you agree? (We couldn’t resist!) Image Taylor Hendrickson Photography | Doughnut Wall Cold Spring Bakery | St. Cloud Wedding Expo | September 22nd
BUNDT CAKES
If traditional anything has you bored silly then you simply can’t go wrong with the ever-charming trend of bundt cakes and mini-bundt cakes. See more from Megan + Tyler’s fall celebration in the current issue. #bundtgoals Image Tessa June Photography | Mini Bundt + Bundt Cakes Nothing Bundt Cakes
