Wedding Cake

In the United Kingdom, the traditional wedding cake is made from a rich fruitcake, although many modern cakes now consist either vanilla sponge, chocolate sponge or carrot cake. Most cakes are between three and five tiers in height, and ten consist a bottom tier made from sponge, with a chocolate sponge middle tier and a fruit top tier. Among some more elaborate cakes the United Kingdom see are those prepared for the Royal Weddings. These cakes are actually decorated boxes with the fruit cake cut into portions on the inside, allowing them to be easily served to hundreds guests.
Another trend is for wedding cupcakes. To imitate the tiers a wedding cake, the cupcakes are placed on a stand and decorated in the wedding colors.
Wedding cakes can also be decorated with flowers.
