What symbolizes love better than the heart? For this reason, it is often chosen for the design of wedding decorations, but also for the wedding cake. Not only a single heart is possible, but also the double heart, which symbolizes the loving bride and groom. Arrangements of several hearts in any size can also be made for the wedding cake as a heart. You can create a tiered cake with the individual hearts or use an attractive cake stand, which gives you different levels as well as individual cakes.
We would like to introduce you to various ideas in this article. With the help of various decorations, such as flowers, pearls or other motifs and a variety of color variations, you can determine the best model for yourself. Be inspired by our gallery and find the perfect oneDessertfor your big day!
As already mentioned, the cake can also be decorated as desired. This “waterfall” made of flowers, which was designed in white, looks particularly pretty. Subtle and simple cakes look particularly elegant and classic.
This rustic heart cake was created with the help of chocolate flakes. The effect of bark is created, which looks extremely original. The individual “sticks” appear to be held together by pretty purple ribbons, which give the cake the necessary elegance.
In general, shiny ribbons are a wonderful way to decorate the cake. The colors can be chosen individually and to match the wedding theme. If you have a cake with several tiers, repeat the ribbons on each tier or combine different colors.
Although this elegant heart cake is very simple overall, it still has pretty flower arrangements here and there in the form of lilies and roses in white color. So that the cake doesn't look too plain and monotonous, dark stripes were added.
This version also radiates a lot of love. For this purpose, red roses, hearts and ribbons are used as accents to the white cake. Such a cake is particularly suitable for a wedding on Valentine's Day. It couldn't be warmer!
The colors in this cake are the same. However, something has been decorated more simply. The red ribbons are narrower and combined with attractive roses. If you place the heart cake and roses on the dessert table, you can decorate it with petals around it. A fruity taste of strawberries is perfect with it!
The heart cake can also be used wonderfully as a base for vintage decorations. Ornate ornaments, roses and ruffles are a perfect choice for this. Another variant is to use lace. Use real fabric for this or have the lace drawn on the cake.
The hearts cannot only be represented by the shape of the cake. Smaller decorations or figurines on the cake itself can also be added to further enhance the romantic atmosphere. Here you see a modern wedding cake as a heart in black and white. The hearts are also shaped in a modern way.
Lilies are popular flowers for weddings. You can also choose the delicate flower as a decoration. With this model, the simple design is immediately noticeable, in which the flowers, but also any other decorations, can be shown to their best advantage.
However, if you value lots of decorations, you can of course also choose such a design. Delicate pastel tones radiate romance and make roses, but also other flowers, appear very authentic. Again, you can spread petals to add to the romantic atmosphere.
The wedding ring as a symbol is a great idea for a wedding motif. Especially if you have chosen a glamorous theme in white and silver for the wedding, you can use the silver ring to design the cake. Glitter and tiny silver hearts can complement the rings. The whole thing can of course also be designed in gold.
If you don't want a typical tiered design for the heart cake, there are other variations you can consider. A cake stand like this one makes a wonderful impression. You can display several small cakes on it and the heart shape is particularly effective. You can also display differently decorated cakes in this way.
Another variant is to have the individual floors staggered. This looks a bit more modern and can also be chosen for any other cake shape. The free areas can be decorated as desired: with additional hearts, flowers or funny cake figures.
Cupcakes are a popular alternative to the classic wedding cake. If you also want to choose these lovely mini cakes for your wedding, that doesn't mean you have to go without the cake. Have a smaller cake made that you can then cut with the groom. Additionally, choose cupcakes with the same color theme.
Many people think that the cake figure should not be missing from the wedding cake. However, to avoid creating an overcrowded look and to ensure that the figures receive the attention they deserve, you should save on the remaining ornaments and decorations. For this purpose, this heart cake has some roses and decorations that imitate pearls.
On a light cake, add some darker accents in the form of flowers or other decorations. In addition to roses, this model also includes other, smaller flower shapes in burgundy and cream, which highlight one side of the heart. The cake plate was also beautifully decorated.
We have already mentioned the double heart as a variant. It symbolizes the groom and the bride and their shared love for each other, where both hearts merge into each other. Use one half for decorations and the other for a message or come up with other ideas. There is undoubtedly enough space with this variant.
This variant for a double heart is also very funny and original. Instead of typical decorations, a wedding dress and a suit were simply chosen to represent the young bride and groom. So as you can see, there are no limits when it comes to design. If you have your own ideas, discuss them with your pastry chef to find the perfect design for your big day.
