Wedding Trend: Naked Cakes

| 13 Comments

You heard that right, one of the most popular trends in wedding desserts lately has been, the very naked cake … that, is a cake not covered in frosting.  And the look really is perfect for upcoming Spring and Summer weddings.  Most are adorned with fresh fruit or flowers, keeping the look organic and almost rustic – though I have seem plenty of very glam naked cakes, like the gorgeous pink-drizzled naked cake (below) dreamed up for a Holiday wedding inspiration shoot by Melissa’s Fine Pastries.  And I have to admit, I love how rich the exposed dark chocolate cake layers look, especially set against the white buttercream frosting layers in between.  Just not sure my husband would get on board with a cake missing an essential element – mounds of additional frosting.  Would you go naked?

About The Author:

Hi, I’m Lexi. Sometimes lawyer, full-time blogger, mama and wife. I pride myself on being tacky and pray the paragraphs I scribble on the back of napkins will morph into a bestselling novel (or series … I wouldn’t complain.) I have a Type-A personality in overdrive, wear too much black, love all things over-the-top, books and glitter make me weak in the knees, and I can't stop buying impractical shoes. This blog has become my dream job. I now style shoots, create content for brands, and offer consulting for businesses and bloggers looking to utilize a blog and/or social media to grow their brand or online presence. I’m SO glad you’re here!

    I actually really like this idea! My bf and I casually talked about wedding cakes one day- it seems no one even eats them and it’s sort of a waste of money. I feel like these would be cheaper and people would be more likely to actually eat them!

    I simply adore this trend!
    I just had a themed photoshooting about 3 weeks ago, presenting among others this extremely fresh idea!
    What about the mini naked cakes? Aren’t they adorable too?

    Greetings from Greece!

    I have never been a fan of frosting and when I was a little girl my mom made my cake sans frosting. When I found this trend I does a little my fiance and I are having a naked cake for our fall wedding next year. A bit of my momma will be with us after all.

    I spoke to a local cake maker about naked cakes and he will not make them as the cake goes stale very quickly. We are planning an outdoor summer wedding. He said by the time the cake is cut and eaten the cake would have very dry edges.
