Not all metallic wedding cakes are shiny.  If you don’t like the sheen, choose a matte metallic!

If you like a traditional wedding cake, find a design that you can incorporate details in gold or silver instead of an all metallic layer.

Non Traditional Wedding Cakes

Posted on by Glendalough Manor

So many brides tell me they don’t really like the taste of cake but want a cake for tradition’s sake. Well, why not have a wedding “cake” that isn’t made out of cake? Choose a sweet that you love and find a way to make it your wedding cake.   Not only will it be something you like to eat but guests will love that it is something different and personal to both of you!  Here are some of our favorite non traditional cake ideas!
