Inspiring Examples
We scoured our Pinterest boards for the very best examples of the above themes. Click the image to find the inspiring baker who created them!
1. Ocean Shades
From the deepest blues to the most delicate sea foam green, these stunning cakes have us dreaming of a beach side celebration!
2. Jewel Tones
We love the deep, moody colours in these jewel-inspired cakes. This trend is starting to pop up at weddings, where brides are opting for dark purples and rich reds instead of traditional whites and pastels.
3. Sunset Hues
Fading from rich, fiery reds to delicate wisps of baby pink, these sunset watercolour cakes are perfect for a summer BBQ. Layer up on the fruity flavours – we love the idea of a pink lemonade combination!
4. Woodland Theme
From toadstools to succulents, put those greens and browns to good use in a foliage-inspired cake. Pop a few baby animals on top and you’ve got the perfect gender-neutral baby shower cake!
