A Winter Wedding Cake will Sparkle With the Help of Glitter

A winter wedding cake can be decorated in many ways. Usually, it has some snow effect to it. One of the ways to do this is to use edible glitter. It gives the cake that sparkly, snow look.

You must have more than glitter on the cake to make it look like a winter wedding cake. Snowflakes can be made out of meringue, sprinkled with an edible glitter, and then left to dry. These can be placed on the cake when it is being decorated. The snowflakes can be any size you want them to be. It all depends on what you have for other designs on the cake. If you just have the snowflakes they can be bigger. If you have other designs or decorations on the cake, the snowflakes should be smaller. You could have snowflakes drawn right on the cake with frosting and then immediately sprinkle them with the glitter so it will stick.

Another idea for a winter cake is to use penguins. You may want the cake frosted in pale blue with white snowdrifts scattered around. The penguins can be arranged in groups in various spots on the cake. This makes a very cute cake.

A winter wedding cake can be decorated very simply and then sprinkled with the edible glitter. Of course you should use the clear color. The cake will sparkle like new fallen snow. Adding a winter themed cake topper adds the final touch.

A unique winter wedding cake is one that is sitting on a cake stand that has four carriage wheels. The cake then looks like the main part of the carriage. You should then put a few reindeer in front of it. They look like they are pulling the carriage. Of course, reindeer make you think of winter. The cake can be decorated almost any way you want.

Winter themed cake toppers and a little glitter can go a long way to making your cake look like a winter cake. It doesn’t have to be complicated.


As you can see in the picture, this cake took on the look of silver snow. Varying patterns painted with edible silver powder make the cake sparkle and shine. Using the very dark red roses on top and around the bottom makes this cake look totally winter. This is a one-of-a-kind winter wedding cake.

To get as many ideas as you can for a winter wedding cake, you should get a wedding cake e-book. Looking at all the pictures is a big help in deciding what you want for your cake. Taking ideas from several different cakes and using them on one cake can make your cake unique and one-of-a-kind.
