What is a trending cake for modern weddings?
Gold cakes are one of the biggest trends for weddings and milestone celebrations right now. The Two Tier Gold Leaf Cake reflects this trend with its edible gold leaf detailing, giving it a contemporary yet timeless look. Couples and hosts are increasingly choosing gold accents because they symbolise elegance, prosperity, and celebration, making this cake both stylish and meaningful.
How to get gold leaf to stick to cake?
- Chill your cake so the buttercream is firm.
- Use a clean, dry brush or tweezers to gently press the gold leaf sheets onto slightly tacky icing.
- Smooth lightly to secure, avoiding too much handling as gold leaf is delicate.
While this adds a touch of luxury, it can be fiddly and time-consuming. Ordering the Gold Leaf Two Tier Cake gives you the same elegant effect with a professional finish, ready-made for weddings, anniversaries, or milestone events.
