22 Dark Wedding Cakes That Add Some Gothic-Inspired Flair

It is common knowledge that white is the traditional stationery choice for wedding color scheme. But that doesn’t mean that you have to stick with the tradition. While some brides still prefer to adhere to the custom, other brides chose to think outside the box. Of course, cake is an indispensable element in wedding occasions. But modern brides are starting to embrace the unorthodox approach in cake designs. Instead of the conventional white cakes, more and more brides are picking out black wedding cakes to highlight their big day.

Cake designs are currently in a revolutionary phase. Stunning new designs that we’ve never seen before are making the trend in the pastry industry right now. Cakes are not just mere sweet desserts anymore but they’re also specially designed to please the eyes. There’s the exquisite flower cake that look like a bouquet or a bunch of succulent plants. For a more exciting design, there’s the marble mirror cake and the space-themed cake. Needless to say, pastry makers are now exercising their artistic skills through their creations. And it seems like they have finally gone out of their comfort zone.
