I’ve never been too fussed with having a perfectly coifed wedding cake, so for our wedding we’ve chosen to go with something really simple and rustic-y, which a dear friend is kindly whipping up for us.
We (and when I say “we” I mean “I” – my fiance couldn’t care less for cake) were inspired by the simple but pretty looking cakes above. I love the look of icing that’s been roughly applied with the back of a knife and the addition of only a few decorations, like some wildflowers or fruit.
I’d love to know: what’s your favourite cake flavour? Thinking we might go for red velvet cake with vanilla icing (yum!) but I’m also a big fan of a good ol’ moist (ekk) chocolate mudcake.
What do you think?

I definitely think you should put the rock em’ sock em’ characters on top of the cake a la’ Sweet Home Alabama!? Ramai would be so keen! Hehe xx
Choc mud cake for sure. Although I also love the idea of cheese platter type cakes that I’ve seen floating around the web. You know the ones I mean? x
i’m feeling intimidated by these masterpieces Rach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just remember not-so-perfect shabby chic is in OK!!!
Kirra: Haha, I had to Google that and cracked up when I did! Ramai would LOVE that :) xx
Claire: I am a sucker for a good choc mud…. And yep, was thinking we could do a cheese wheel stack as well for the savoury lovers. xx
Liz: Honey, it’s going to be imperfectly beautiful – that’s the idea! xx
