In 2023, the sweet-toothed bride and groom are in luck. Although the dessert table is practically essential at every wedding, 2023 wedding cakes will be back stronger than ever.
They are going to capture all the attention! And we know it because, after finding out all the wedding cake trends for next year, it has made our mouths water and we are amazed by the designs.
It will not be easy to choose! So, keep reading and grab some paper and a pen to write down your favourites, and without further delay…
We present the top trending wedding cakes of 2023:
Peanut butter is trending
Yes, you heard us right. This butter, that so many are obsessed with, has joined alongside chocolate to create elegant and delicious cakes. An American classic that is going to triumph at weddings in 2023!
And as a topping, sugar-coated peanuts. You and your guests won’t be able to keep your hands off it!
Tropical flavours, They’re all delicious!
There are perfect combinations that balance the sweetness and acidity, creating an explosion of tropical flavours.
Next year, the trend is to mix fruits and chocolates: chocolate and orange; white chocolate and mango or passion fruit; strawberries and dark fruits with chocolate; vanilla with mango and peach… We love it!
The Charlotte cake returns
The typical charlotte cake that, for a while we haven’t seen, returns with more popularity than ever. This cake, which is surrounded by a circle of champagne cookies, covered in red fruits and held together with a bow, can be found filled with strawberry mousse and more cookies.
As well as being very tasty, it is very flamboyant. Everyone will love this cake and it is so difficult to resist!
Red velvet cake, the millennials’ favourite
Red velvet cake is, par excellence, the favourite of the millennial generation. For this reason, there are more and more couples that choose it for their big day.
The ingredients consist of chocolate for the sponge and cream cheese for the filling, forming a chromatic colour range of red and white. A well known cake that has become a safe bet!
Puff pastry cake with cream, fruits and nuts
The sound of puff pastry melting in your mouth will make your guests’ tastebuds happy. Although the puff pastry is accompanied by fresh cream, vanilla cream or pastry cream, the best touch would be to add caramelised fruits like apples, strawberries, kiwis or figs, as well as nuts such as almonds or macadamia nuts. A delicacy!
Coffee that smells freshly ground
If you are someone that can’t start the day without good coffee, or you are unable to finish lunch without one, you are in luck. Coffee cakes will be trending.
Without a doubt, coffee won’t appear alone, since it comes in delicious combinations like coffee and mascarpone, coffee and chantilly, or coffee with cookie cream and of course, coffee and chocolate. A perfect pair!
Naked cakes are here to stay
Known as naked cakes, these cakes are being chosen by more and more couples. The sponge doesn’t come covered in fondant, frosting or any other covering, they are simply sponge cakes filled with whichever flavour that you choose, and covered in fruits and edible flowers. A great cake for a rustic, rural, countryside or vintage wedding!
Marble cake
The surface decoration of the cake, simulating marble, will also be in fashion for wedding cakes in 2023. If you want a wedding cake without shrillness or huge decorations, this effect will be perfect.
Normally, grey and white are the perfect combination for a simple cake that is also very elegant, but there are also the combos of greys, blues and whites or rose-coloured marble.
Tiers covered in flowers
Pretty flowers of all types (fresh, dried, or edible) are seen everywhere on tiered wedding cakes. Whether that be around the base, divided amongst the tires, cascading down or as a cake topper, their presence will not go unnoticed, and they will delight all the guests. You can even choose them to match the bride’s bouquet!
A cake…in a hexagon shape!
This geometric aspect is the perfect mixture of modernity and elegance, and the trend for 2023 wedding cakes will be to opt for different hexagonal cakes and pile them ontop of eachother.
Hexagonal shapes have a striking appearance, which is why the best thing to do is keep them simple. For this style, a marble cake is perfect!
A cake of cheeses!
Did you know that in France, cheeses are a dessert? Yes, this is a great idea for a bride and groom that want to move away from a classic wedding cake, and also want to innovate and surprise. Why not a cake of cheeses? Cakes of cheese are easy to make as you can include various types of cheese and create a huge tower of your favourites.
Put your salty cake on the cheese table and let everyone admire it. With cheese, everything tastes better!
New cake figurines will arrive
For some years, cakes have modernised in a wild way, and so have the famous figurines that are put on the top of the cake.
Now, these figures are personalised, perfect for those that don’t want to have the figures of the bride and groom represented on their cake. In 2023 it will be trending to use letters as cake figurines and you can even design your own if you are motorbike-lovers, travel-lovers or animal-lovers, etc.
Alternatives to wedding cakes that are also trending
Another trend for wedding cakes of 2023 will be to opt for alternatives to the typical wedding cake. As it is custom, at every wedding there is a cake of various tiers ready to be cut by the bride and groom with a knife, but, if you don’t want to do the cake cut, you can surprise your guests with different ideas and move away from the traditional.
How about an ice cream stall, waffles, crepes, donuts, or churros with chocolate? Any sweet dish can work!
How do these wedding cakes that will trend in the banquets of 2023 seem to you? They all look finger-licking good!
Now is the time to choose which cake you want to cut with your partner, and the choice of wedding cakes is as important as the choice of your wedding dress. This is why, at Perfect Venue, we would love to help you find your dream cake!
