Wedding Cake Trivia and Finding That Special Cake


To find that special cake for your special day or wedding sounds interesting, right?Taste the delicious confectionery, yes, it can be done, but don't let it all in a day or you will ruin your taste buds and cake haven't sick your big day.In addition, if you have too much taste test all in one day, all the cakes taste will meet each other, you can't tell the cake is your favorite.No, unless you have a wide range of notes.Taste tests should make the cake taste like good wine.You must wash panel between each new flavor taste or you don't give it all.

I suggest that you mat and writing utensils, so you can take notes.Sometimes this is unnecessary, because you'll meet or taste the cake you absolutely hate, but I'll even pay attention to, in case you know recommended, baker, or specific taste.Why don't you remember you choose cake or baker, will not have a clear reason, or the baker.I know it sounds strange or even impossible.Indeed, our tastes change suddenly even from childhood to a few years, the absolute 10 to 15 years later, we like it or not.Take notes, it will save the day, the memory of you.
There will be descriptions of taste flavorings that sound so delectable that when you taste it, you still may not believe how horrible it tastes, or even vice versa. Try all that you can until you find your favorite. Take water or seltzer to clear your palette after each tasting, so that your next taste of a different flavor will not have the lingering taste of the previous confection. Finding your favorite will be almost instantaneous sometimes and other times it is a long expedition into the cake world of taste and textures of cake and frosting.
When you find what do you think what you want.Waiting for a day or two to taste it again.If you've had a good meal plan, this is you can repeat a little, do, eat, then go to baker and cake to try again.Or if you like it, see if you can take one or two home to try again, meal or something like that, so you can see if it will work.If it doesn't work, you can search again, unless you want to change something in your dinner.Or just have a dessert.
ust like there are wedding dress trends there are also wedding cake trends. When I got married, I knew that I wanted my cake to be on three different pedestals arranged askew, not in a row or on top of each other, I was bucking the 2005 wedding cake trend. Back then most of the cakes looked like round hats stacked on top of each other, complete with the bow. Color was just starting to get adventurous, back then. Also I knew after tasting several cakes randomly, that I wanted double chocolate/carob and my friend's specialty butterscotch rum in the middle. I also, love fondant, so I knew that I wanted that as my frosting. Although I didn't buck traditional altogether since my cakes were white with purple ribbon at the bottom of each layer with flowers to compliment my dress. Because of my allergy to milk, I knew that the top had to be a white cake and hopefully something that would keep for a year, or so I thought.

vintage wedding cakes

For the year 2011/2012, when I say wedding cake trends, I am not talking about the color. I think most wedding couples will go with either the color shadings of their theme color or maybe this year go with the colors from the United Kingdom's Royal wedding colors: Silver and blue. Traditionally until the 19th century all wedding cakes were white, even the decoration on it. White, to denote purity, much like the dress. No, when I say trends I am talking about the design and or set up of the cake once it is on the table. Of late, there have been a lot of boxes, some askew, others in rigidly shaped edged box shapes and traditional cakes, but seemingly all stacked somehow one on top of the other. Held together presumably with straws or poles and a prayer, especially when transporting from bakery to venue.

Fruit cakes, fillings are out, even though the United Kingdom's Royal wedding went with a traditional fruit cake, which most Americans shun religiously at Christmas, so would NEVER be included or thought perfect for a wedding cake to be shared with your new relatives, friends, or even your spouse. Prior to the tradition in the United Kingdom of sweet or fruity cakes, in Medieval times the cake was usually made of a plain unsweetened bread. Actually probably a truer metaphor for what the bride was getting into than anything since. The bread was usually eaten first by the groom, who then broke it over the bride's head showing his dominance over her (presumably throughout the rest of their married life.) I can see why that is not practiced anymore.

The added sweetness, fruits, minced cakes are from the "Bride's Pie" which became the norm in 19th century England. Sometimes that pie was even made from mutton, especially if the family was not of the elite or royal lineage, with wealth to have the sweet meats. By the late 19th century, the bride's pie was out and single tiered plum cakes were the norm or trend of the day. It was not until much later when guest lists expanded that cake or wedding cake, earlier called the "Bride's Cake", that layering started to become trendy. Initially the layers were just mock-ups, much like the mock or fake cakes of today in which it was all either hardened sugar or hardened frosting on the top layers. As you know the use of the fake cake is for pictures now and the first cut. Nowadays the fake cake after the first cut and pictures is taken to the kitchen or back room while the cuttings for the guests are taken from a sheet cake of the same frosting design. This is both for convenience and to keep the cost of the wedding cake down to a minimum.
Now, the trend tends to be for a deeper cakes, and we are back to stacked in the traditional straight stair-step up. The only break from tradition is the deepness and the dimensions of the layers are a little bigger to accommodate more guests. Nowadays, the cake no longer has to be the traditional round layered cake, but can be a veritable extravaganza of shapes and sizes, but are usually still stacked one on top of the other. The wedding cake as we know is the center of the wedding reception, much like the Bride has evolved to be the center of the entire event. It is said that the dress and the cake should be chosen with equal care. In the beginning of the dessert for the wedding it was called Bride 'something', whether it was pie, cake, or non edibles like the bridesmaids, and bridegroom, all to denote the day of marriage was to be centered on the bride. It was and is her day.

In terms of the decor of the cake for 2011 there seems to be a trend of elaborate decorations for the cake. Such as mimicking the cheap Gothic beach plus size wedding dresses (lace or flowers) or some elaborate part of the theme of the wedding. I have seen beautiful crisp white cakes with what look to be butter cream frosting dipped or sprayed Vanilla wafers that wrap around each layer of the cake. The sugar flowers are still big, along with butterflies, and now etchings or drawings of trees and entire forests on the cake. The colors of the traditional cake is usually white to denote the purity of the bride and the whole ceremony. Now this year and next, that trend has been tossed out the window to replicate the brides' wedding colors, or the couple favorite colors. Much like the theme of the Groom's Cake. The Groom's Cake was first introduced in early American wedding ceremonies. It was traditional for the groom's cake to be chocolate and maybe decorated with the groom's hobbies displayed in sugar decorations on the cake. Now though through contemporary times the Groom's cake is not used much other than in the southern states of America.

Okay, by now, you know, I do research on trivial/little known traditions, so let me tell you why, supposedly we are to keep the top of the cake for a year and then eat it with your spouse on your one year anniversary. You know I had to know. One, because it seems so random. Two, our cake did not make it through the first six months (My husband had never heard of that tradition and thought that I'd forgotten that we had cake in the freezer. Ate, some of it and then called to remind me that we had cake. Do I hear a collective intake of shocked breath?) The tradition comes from the 19th century [There were a lot of things pertaining to cakes happening during that century. I wonder if Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom loved cake. Yum.] Anyway, during the 19th century, it was usual and expected that the bride and groom would invariably have a child 9 months or so after their marriage, so the top layer of the cake was saved to have at the Christening. This was before refrigeration, so where were they keeping it? For nine months and was it still any good? Boggles the mind doesn't it? Maybe they were filled with liquor to keep or fermented or fermenting fruit?
Here's the last one I came across, but I am sure there are many others, do you know how the tiered cake became the tiered cake? No? It seems guests of a wedding would bring sweet buns to the wedding feast, pile them as high as possible and the request, probably demand the new married couple to kiss over the top of the sweet buns. A French men came along in England and said enough with the piled sweet buns, let me just make a cake that has tiers.

Actually I have heard and read in the last year that bakers do not subscribe to the idea of holding onto the cake for a year, since unless it is a whiskey or rum soaked cake it will be the worse for wear after a year, even in the freezer. Much like my husband said, that it was getting dry sitting in the freezer. The reason our particular cake was getting dry, had nothing to do with the ability of my baker, it was the ingredients I had requested. I was trying to give up wheat at the time and requested the top layer to be made from rice flour. Well, if you know anything about baking or even rice, you know that rice is one of those foods that absorbs the liquids around it, much like mushrooms, or potatoes do. Even though she used mayonnaise to add moisture to this cake, even after just five short months the rice flour had completely sapped up all the moisture in the cake itself and was already dry, as my dear husband told me as he was eating it.

That's another thing if you have special diets, which I did at the time, make sure that whomever your baker is, that she or he is on your side as to what you want. Do not go to someone who does not respect what you want. You are paying for the cake. They may say they are an artist and they have always done it a certain way, but you are paying and as an artist, they should be flexible. Artistic ability is a show of compliance and flexibility to make something beautiful out of almost anything... or even difficult situations.

Fashion Trends For Your Kids


Carrying fashion trends is not as easy as you think, and some people make a complete fool out of themselves because they do not know how to carry-out such trends.?The most popular trendsetters are celebrities and movie stars who are seen in various media outlets.?But in the end, it is the public who decides which is trendy and which is not.

The world changes, progresses and grows every day, although at a different rate most of the time.?But fashion is here to stay, and it changes along with other things.?After all, change is the only permanent thing in this world.
Fashion designers and trendsetters focus on originality, beauty, and ideals. It is one way of expressing yourself because it is a reflection of your mentality, cultural providence, feelings, and personality.


Fashion trends are regarded as an art in pragmatic form, because it is a combination of aesthetics and practicality. It is usually influenced by many social and cultural factors, and each generation has its own distinct fashion characteristics or traits.

Before, fashion fever involved only the adults, but today's modern world has greatly changed. Even children are already in line with fashion trends.
The fashion industry now caters to children designer clothing. Young children can now enjoy a varied and extensive range of fashion clothes, which helps them to set a fashion trend of their own.

Even very young children have their own preferences, and many fashion designers are now focusing on babies and children wear. You can now find colorful, original, ingenious, stimulating, and appealing clothes for both the girls and the boys. You can now find superhero costumes and outfits, as well as accessorized girls dresses.

Children of today times are inclined towards aesthetics, originality, and beauty. Clothing stores for children provide a wide range of clothing choices for boys and girls; and so your little one is taught to choose a particular fashion trend at a very early age.
Clothing lines today are equally attractive as children toys. There is an increasing awareness among children about the value of wearing fashionable clothes.

Unlike before, children clothes are more affordable and this is due to emerging discount shops, import of clothes, and equal merchandise distribution between clothing stores and supermarkets.
Another contributor to the reduction of children clothes prices is the increasing number of online stores. Most online stores offer high quality clothing articles at a much cheaper price. You can choose from among a wide variety of designer clothes and other cost-cutting alternatives.

Online stores, and local clothing stores, offer boys suits, shirts, trousers and girls dresses and capes. They also offer unisex items, along with children accessories like bow ties, booties, and shoes.

If you want to save a lot of effort and time, you can make an online purchase. All you need is an Internet connection and you can choose from among the many websites that sells children clothing.

But if you want to do a little shopping together with your kids, there are also many local stores in your area. Let your child choose among the magnificent displays of clothing line-ups. Your child's creativity and aesthetic sense will reflect his or her choice of clothes.

Do not let your child be left behind; give them the opportunity to keep up with fashion trends. Let them choose clothes which they feel are comfortable to wear and makes them look great.

What's on trend for bridesmaids in 2013? Which styles is more prefer by the bridesmaid dress designers and top celebrities? Which are the hottest colors for your bridesmaids dresses in the year ahead? Here you will get the answer.
Illusion Necklines and Lace
The first of which being the increasingly popular illusion neckline. A little bit of sheer fabric just above the bust of a gown can really alter the entire look of the dress into something absolutely stunning. The bridesmaid dresses are usually simple accompaniments to the elegant and eye catching wedding dress. The new trend is adding texture to the bridesmaid dresses in the form of lace and sheer silk. Not into the whole sheer look? How about dressing your wedding party in dresses accented with lace? Once a fabric seen only on the bride, lace has continued to make its way into the bridesmaid lineup - bringing a touch of femininity with it.

Peplum
Peplums were seen this summer on brides and now a modified and toned down version is coming in the spring for the bridesmaids! For those who are unfamiliar, a peplum is basically a short overskirt or ruffle that is attached at the waistline of a dress. This style has been trending all over so it may be something to consider this spring!

Convertible Dress
Still a very popular option in the 2013 bridesmaid dress trends is the convertible dress. Each of your bridesmaids are unique and they rarely ever agree on the same dress. So to get the best of all possible worlds, the convertible dress is it!

Convertible bridesmaid dresses

One Shoulder
One way to add a touch of style to the bridesmaid dress that allows for options in any wedding is the one shoulder dress. Much like the lace fabric, one-shoulder style dresses have mostly been seen on brides in the past and have only recently made their way into the world of the bridesmaids.

White or Ivory Dress
Okay, we've saved the most surprising 2013 trend for last. It's a white dress! Yes, we know it sounds crazy but ever since Pippa Middleton made her grand entrance at the Royal Wedding, interests in white bridesmaid dresses have been growing fast! Not only the bride is wearing white next spring, a new trend for spring will be classic white bridesmaid dresses and even white flowers. Maybe you'll be up for taking a risk this spring and will give this style a try!

Ivory bridesmaid dresses

2013 Bridal Market wasn't a bold gown trend or something Vera Wang did (like black wedding dresses) - but instead, a recurring theme in bridesmaid dresses. And that theme is that your maids are about to steal the show. Sorry, brides! Dress your maids in emerald green and you can accessories with bouquets in rich deep reds - blooms featuring dark winter berries look breathtaking. Purple is another color I predict we-ll be seeing a lot more of in 2013. It also works well as a statement shade - maybe put your bridesmaids in deepest mauve and dress your flower girls in white with purple sashes. Brights show no sign of losing popularity and will work well with the current trend for mismatched bridesmaid dresses. Think hot pink, turquoise, emerald green, yellow and orange. Read more
