How to Make an Easy Wedding Cake

Plenty of tutorials are displayed online to help future brides who are ambitious enough to have their own cake baked by themselves, but many brides as well would like to choose the easy wedding cake they can prepare for their wedding reception. They choose the easy version partly because they may not be that good at it, or partly because they do not have enough time to spend around this wedding detail.

Easy wedding cake doesn’t have to look other than a beautiful wedding cake that is not only handsome, but also tasty. The following things are necessary to bake an easy wedding cake: a decorative plate holder, 3 glass plates, one-step cake release, 2 cake pans, butter-cream icing, decorative ribbons and artificial flowers.

* 12 cakes can be baked. 4 of them will be used for each tier, therefore the cake will appear as a 3 tier wedding cake. Once the cakes are cooled to the room temperature they can be placed to a cooling rack to become firm when frosting will be used to decorate them.

* Meanwhile make the butter-cream frosting utilizing the recipes that are available online. You can choose the one that you consider to be the yummier. If you know someone from your guests being allergic to some of the ingredients you should have in this case something special ordered as you would like for everyone to be satisfied at your wedding celebration.

* Remove the cakes from the cooling rack, stack them into 3 larger cakes that consist of 4 layers and position them on separate glass plates. Each thin layer should be sprayed with frosting in order to make the layers stick together. Extra flavor can be added in case you spread pie filling between each of the layers.

* You should put tem again in the cooling rack of the fridge and in this way they won’t slip around when the other layer of frosting will be spread.

* Before reaching to the decorative moment you should add the final coat of frosting. This time the layer should be thin and to do this you should use a large spatula that you will maneuver in circle around the cake. You should operate on each cake, while the other two should be kept in the fridge.

* For the decoration you can choose the colored ribbon that should go as a contrast to the color of the frosting, as in this way can beautifully change the aspect of your easy wedding cake. The ribbon can be cut and wrapped around the base of each tier pressing carefully on it to be kept in place.

* You can use also the artificial flowers that can be either used as cascading down the 3 tier easy wedding cake or wrapped around each tier and taking care to decorate as well the top of the cake in case you haven’t previously thought of a special wedding cake topper.
