Frequently asked questions
2 Pretty Pastels
Pastel shades are a popular choice for everything from nail polish to shoes this year, so why not get in on the trend with an ombe cake in pastel colors? I don’t know about you, but I think the whimsical combination of mint, pink, orange and white looks almost too pretty to eat!
3 Glamorous Pink
With colors ranging from hot-to-pastel pink, this gorgeous cake is just perfect for the bride who’s planning a decadent, glamorous affair. Plus, as if the colors alone weren’t already amazing enough, the different sized tiers and dramatic bursts of flowers make this dazzling confection all the more glitzy.
4 Purple Romance
Looking for a cake that’s romantic yet simple? I love the layered design of this ombre cake in purple, along with its non-fussy vibe. Do you like it, too, but think you’ll need a larger cake to accommodate all of your guests? Rather than ordering a traditional tiered cake, you can also consider ordering several smaller cakes like this one in different shades that complement your color scheme.
5 Trendy Mint
Mint is one of the year’s hottest wedding colors, and there’s no better way to carry the trend throughout your entire day than by showcasing a gorgeous ombre cake. As you can see, with a cake this pretty, a single mint-colored flower is all you need to complete the look.
6 Bright & Bold
Think ombre designs have to fade from bright to subtle shades? Think again! Bring a huge simile to everyone’s face with a punchy combination of colors that can easily be tailored to add a bold touch to any color scheme.
7 Sandy Neutrals
Who says beach wedding cakes have to feature nautical blues? This unique ombre color scheme of sandy brown, beige and white is just right for a sea-themed cake that’s chic, not cheesy.
8 Playful Ruffles
Give your cake a playful look with this unique ombre design that’s anything but ordinary. The messy ruffles remind me a bit of ribbon candy, while the pastel color scheme is also soft yet undoubtedly eye-catching.
9 Romantic Flowers
From the bold shades of red to the romantic array of flower petals, I love everything about this creative cake, which strikes me as being perfect for a Valentine’s Day wedding. Which of the shades seen here is your favorite?
10 Modern Dots
Finally, this cake’s modern ombre dot design is the epitome of cool. Find it a bit too over-the-top for your liking? A polka dot design showcasing smaller, less dramatic dots would also work just as well.
