Best of 2015: The Most Glorious Wedding Cakes of the Year

Best of 2015: The Most Glorious Wedding Cakes of the Year

via

Cakes, glorious cakes.

Whether it's four tiers of classic royal icing, or a simple sponge with some buttercream on top, we've rarely come across a cake we wouldn't (at least, attempt to) eat in one sitting.

Even all this festive gorging over the last few weeks hasn't put us off our appetite for all things wedding cakes.

This year we've had some corkers of wedding cakes on the blog, so, in our penultimate post of 2015, we thought, with the week of sweet things that's in it, it would be only right to share our favourite bakes from the past year.

They're elegant, they're creative, they're delicious, and they're unquestionably, works of art.

So, it's little wonder wedding cakes tend to become a real focal point at any wedding reception (aside from the happy couple of course!).

Big in cake trends this year, were single tiered cakes (we'll be doing a guide to these gorgeous bakes early in 2016!), while naked cakes, chocolate tiers and cheese wheel wedding cakes were also massively popular among modern couples.

Though we're always total suckers for a white iced wedding cake, adorned with fresh flowers, or a cute cake topper. Sometimes the classics are still the best.

Scroll down to see our favourite wedding cakes from 2015, and see if any of them inspire your own big day bake...
