Wedding Cake Ideas: Table Cakes

Posted Thursday, August 28, 2008 3:35 PM

Cake, centerpiece, table name, edible favor -- or all of the above? This multipurpose minicake from Brittany and Jason's Minneapolis, MN wedding works overtime in the wedding department.

Forget using flowers as centerpieces and treat your guests to something sweet. Each cake was wrapped in different patterned fondant to mimic gift-wrapping paper and sweetly tied together with an edible bow. Not only did each cake act as a centerpiece -- they also had an edible gift tag with the table number on it to direct the guests to their seats. The cakes came in four different flavors, including white cake with fresh raspberries and devil's food cake with Bailey's Irish Cream. "They tasted amazing!" attests the bride. Functional and delicious? Whatever you call this cool confection it definitely takes the cake.
