What kind of cake did ou have/will you have at your wedding? What was the flavor, toppings, decorations?
If you had a filled cake, why did you choose that over unfilled (and vice versa).
Also- on a long shot, has anyone on here had any type of ethnic cake? On specific to your culture?
Just trying to get some ideas

My wedding cake was FABULOUS! It was a white and chocolate marble cake with coconut. It was 4 tiered, no columns or anything separating the layers, and it was frosted so that it looked like lace was draped over the top of each layer. Then I had red roses on a small part of each layer with a candle in a small glass votive, and one on top too. There were rose petals sprinkled all around it. I loved it.

We didn't have an ethnic cake, so sorry that I can't help you there. I have been to a lot of Asian weddings where the cake flavors were distinctively...Asian...most of them were really good and the cakes themselves looked really pretty.
Our cake was 5 tiers (all buttercream frosting) - the bottom being chocolate with chocolate chip filling, next was lemon cake with raspberry filling, then white cake with strawberry filling, spice cake with custard filling and the top tier was also lemon with raspberry filling.
Honestly we chose the flavors and the filling because during our tasting everything tasted just so good!! I almost think the filling was the best part. Not grossly sweet - just perfect. Good luck!

I was just at a wedding where they didn't do the traditional wedding cake. Instead, everyone got a lovely dessert and as a token gift, everyone got a cupcake. They were homemade (the gal sitting at my table did them as a gift; she's a profession cake person), marble cake with what I call "better cream" frosting.
Bottom line, in my opinion, is to get something that is going to taste good and not melt/spoil/go funny while sitting out on display.

My cake was totally different. We had a lot of desserts so we didn't need a huge cake. I sent a picture of myself in my wedding dress to an awesome cake person and she made the cake look like my dress on a dress mannequin. It was very cool. We had chocolate cake with a light layer of fudge filling and champagne cake with a light layer of strawberry filling. It was amazing!

We're having assorted cheesecakes instead of traditional cake. We are also having a smaller grooms cake because my fiance doesn't like cheesecake. Not sure of the flavor or style of that yet (14 months to plan still). Also, we are having a Norwegian wedding cake that his mom is making. She is 100% Norwegian.

My husband and that i chosen marble cake with bavarian cream filling for each of our levels-with the aid of fact we mandatory all our travellers to have the comparable style journey, we desperate against having each and each tier being different (and that throughout lots of situations provides greater fee directly to an already expensive confection!!). that's each and every so often a competent thought to decide for a style mixture that maximum human beings could be keen to consume, like classic pound cake or white cake with an user-friendly cream filling, or if picking a fruit filling, going with some thing like a chocolate cake with strawberry filling, or maybe a lemon cake with a raspberry filling. pink Velvet with cream cheese filling is yet another particularly romantic cake decision. oftentimes, carrot cake is questionable, with the aid of fact no longer each and every person likes it. I desire that fluctuate into greater effectual suggestion- come to a decision on a pair style combos you're tossed between, and ask for those: like decide for a popular mixture, a greater adventurous one, and then your widespread cake style...and use the tasting to be certain what the many times utilized of their cake is (moist? Dense?), and their fillings (Heavy? Gooey?), and make an informed decision from there.

I love carrot cake, and my husband loved a plain white cake with raspberry mousse filling, so we did both! 2 tiers were carrot, the bottom was the white, it was great! And then people had a choice as well....we ran out of the carrot too. ;-)

I had a tower of brownies. Brownies are better than wedding cake anyday. You can also buy them for .99 cents a box at walmart and have friends and other people help you bake them.

I had a great cake! It was yellow cake, filled with chocolate, and buttercream frosting. I had a horse and carriage cake topper.
I would have loved a Spanish cake, but we couldn't find one.

We had cupcakes in chocolate, lemon and vanilla. They had a buttercream icing and was topped by a four inch chocolate mousse cake to cut. Here's a pic!
