Exquisite multi-tiered cakes make a glamorous statement. Unfortunately, these tall towers can bestow a bride with a severe case of sticker shock. Not to despair! You can still have your cake and eat it too! It just requires a few savvy tips.
- Modify the design into a two or three-layered mini cake. This mini work of art will showcase your style and allow the perfect backdrop for your cake cutting ceremony.
- Ask your baker to provide the bulk of the servings from a sheet cake. Your guests will adore your designer cake flavor and you'll save big time on the price per slice!
- Forget about saving the top tier for noshing on your first anniversary. You can eliminate freezer burn and an extra tier's cost. Instead, why not have your baker replicate a coordinating mini cake that is fresh when the moment arrives?
