Bridal Shower Cakes: The Right One For You

By: Stephanie Smith..

Bridal showers are exciting. Few occasions on earth are happier than seeing one of your beloved friends get married to someone he or she loves. With this joy, however, comes a great deal of work. Showers require preparation, and lots of it. You have to send out invitations, get the house ready, and of course provide refreshments which will often include a bridal shower cake. This last task, however, can be lots of fun if you're willing to make the cake yourself. Be creative with your cakes and you'll be sure to have a hit.

Bridal shower cake ideas should be carefully thought through before making any decision. Depending on the tastes of the lucky couple, you will either need an extraordinary cake that is highly decorated or a simple and smaller cake, if the couple is celebrating with an intimate group. Keep in mind that it's the couple that should be satisfied with your decision.

A key decorating bridal shower item is the cake. Will it be a beach wedding, or in a park? If so, you may want to go with a themed shower cake. Personalizing the cake just for the bride and groom is always a special gesture, or you could choose to decorate the cake with romantic and traditional items such as hearts, flowers or wedding bells.

Now that the cake decorations have been picked out, you can turn your focus on the cake itself - by picking which flavor or flavors you want the cake to be. This decision is mostly based on individual opinion. Does the bride prefer plain angel food cake or rich german chocolate cake? Maybe both, or possibly a different choice entirely. Knowing that there are many unique cake flavors and decorations should put your mind at ease. If you're looking for something a little different, look for cake recipes online and make sure to make a sample cake beforehand to see how it tastes.

Bridal shower cakes, like the people who will be eating them, come in all different shapes and sizes. The size of your cake should depend on how many people will be attending the shower. This should be easy enough, provided you did not forget to tell your guests to RSVP! For larger showers it may make sense to make more than one cake in more than one flavor.

Since you're going through the effort of purchasing or making a beautiful cake, why not also use it as the bridal shower centerpiece? You can personalize it by having names of the bride and groom written on the cake, along with the date of their wedding. Guests always want to take pictures of the cake, so give them a cake to remember.

Whatever kind of cake you choose, remember that it is not the cake that counts; it's the sentiment behind it. Bridal shower cakes are a wonderful aspect of a celebration, but the celebration truly is the best part. Don't get too stressed out in trying to choose. Remember how special the occasion is, not just for you but for the bride, the groom, and all their friends and family. Your shower will truly be memorable that way.
