Wedding Wednesday: Fall Inspired Wedding Cakes

As summer fades into fall many bakeries are kicking it into high gear. The combination of the cooler weather and the beauty of mother nature's yearly foliage make September and October very sought after wedding months.  This time of year is a unique time which the wedding color palette expands from the typical pastels to gorgeous jewel tones and magnificent metallics. Working with the seasons colors can give a bride an interesting choice for bouquets, dresses, ties, place settings, invitations and of course, the wedding cake. There are lots of ways to incorporate the fall wedding theme into your wedding cake. 

Accent your wedding cake in the rich fall color

 palette: chocolates, maroons, oranges, emerald, 

reds, rusts, plums, golds etc.

Consider using a fall flavors, such as, pumpkin,
caramel, spice, hazelnut, toffee, butterscotch, maple etc.
Adding these flavors is a simple way to incorporate fall into
your wedding menu. 

The Cake Boutique's tip for using the fall palette
 is to add a pop of a bright color to accent the dark warm fall
 tones. Surprising lime green is a great touch to any fall color.

Use fall accents to decorate your cake including
 leaves, wood, branches, acorns, pinecones etc.

When it comes to fall weddings remember to embrace all things autumn; luxurious colors, spicy flavors, and foliage accents.
