Alternatives to a 3-Tier Wedding Cake

After you have been to a few weddings, you know the traditional fare. Wedding cake and more wedding cake, which can get tiring after a while. For many couples, unique alternatives to the traditional wedding cake are a fun choice.

Your wedding guests will be delighted with new variations on a classic wedding dessert, especially at the end of a busy wedding season. After expecting yet another round of wedding cake, they will find dessert options that reflect your personality and personal tastes.

One fun option is to have a variety of cupcakes, in different flavors, arranged in tiers just like a traditional wedding cake. This is nice when you cannot agree on just one flavor of cake. If you choose to have each cupcake decorated professionally, your cost will be very close to the same as a regular wedding cake.

You could also try a variety of pies and cheesecakes. You can be quite creative and match up your dessert with your wedding theme. An Autumn wedding could offer pumpkin and apple pies. Winter could have rich pies such as cherry and blueberry. Spring and Summer require lighter pies, such as lemon meringue.

For even more variety in your wedding desserts, you can setup a dessert bar where the guests can customize their own desserts. You can serve caramel apples with various toppings, multiple flavors of ice cream, or even fondue.

The sky really is the limit with what wedding desserts you can choose from. Make sure they are reflective of your personality, and you will not go wrong.
