5 Tips for Baking a Simple Wedding Cake
Making your own wedding cake is a venture that most brides and grooms would never imagine undertaking, but if you love baking (and saving some serious cash!) this might be a great idea for you. This fun, but major, project can involve a lot of different moving pieces, so here are some things to keep in mind if you do choose to make your own cake.
1. Use a Tested Wedding Cake Recipe
Choose a cake recipe and style that you?re familiar with and have made before. Or, if you want to choose something else, make sure you test it at least a couple of times beforehand. You do not want the day before your wedding to be the first time you?re trying this out! Plus, it?s always helpful?and very fun!?to have a taste testing session with your partner ahead of time to express preferences and make choices about the taste and style of cake. Try a few different recipes and have some choices for your tasting as you plan your wedding.
2. Do Not Skimp on Ingredients and Baking Tools
Although making your own wedding cake is absolutely a great way to stay within budget, make sure that you don?t ignore the items you truly need to bake a beautiful and delicious cake. Purchase high-quality ingredients (and extra, in case you accidentally drop that carton of eggs on your kitchen floor). Have a sturdy base that you can decorate on and transport the cake with. Don?t forget to buy bases for between the layers and strong dowel rods to use as you layer up the tiers. It may be tempting to keep things ...
