While choosing a style of wedding cake that reflects your personality is important, there are more things to consider than how it looks and tastes. Your choice from the many wedding venues in Orange County must also be considered, particularly if you have opted to have it outdoors, where heat may seriously impact how your cake will fare. The likes of butter cream is susceptible to melting in high temperatures and therefore fondant should be a strong consideration. Having realistic expectations will ensure both you and the wedding cake look spectacular on the day!
The budget you allocate will dictate how highly decorated your wedding cake in Orange County can be, as the more elaborate the design the more labor it will take, and this impacts the final cost.

There is virtually no limit to what style of cake topper you can opt to grace your cake, and there is a style to fit almost every personality, from flowers and monograms to the more traditional bride and groom topper. An Internet search for toppers will reveal page after page of results. The standard size for the upper tier of a wedding cake is 6 inches round and most toppers are created with that size in mind, but it is always wise to check with your baker before purchasing. If the topper you choose is heavy your baker will need to know well in advance to take measures to ensure it does not sink into the cake.
The age old English tradition of freezing the top tier of the wedding cake was made easier due to the fact that traditional wedding cakes were baked full of rich fruit with brandy added to the mixture. Brandy was then generously brushed over the entire cake after baking to preserve it.
