Have you ever wondered where to find the wedding cake of your dreams? Or perhaps you’re considering breaking away from tradition and opting for something entirely different? If so, read on. While the wedding cake is a traditional element in many celebrations, there’s no rule that says you must have one. If you’d rather not have a wedding cake, don’t worry about what your guests might think.
These days, many couples are choosing not to have a wedding cake at all. Another rising trend is small cakes, which can later be sliced and used at the candy bar, for example. In this article, I’ll take you on a culinary journey through the 10 best bakeries in the world for wedding cakes
