Trending: Oh-so shiny metallic wedding cakes

We love everything about Paul’s Satin Chocolate Rose Cake tutorial, not least of all the gorgeous metallic sheen of the sumptuous roses. It’s a classy way to create a wedding cake that’s bang on trend.

 

We’re loving this arty metallic creation! This pretty four-tiered, gold-flecked design was created by the Ivory & Rose Cake Company.

 

Contrasting pastel shades with metallic colours can look so lovely, as this beautiful cake from The Artisan Cake Company demonstrates.

Not all that glitters is gold, as this metallic green cake by The Sugar Suite proves. Think outside the box – metallic doesn’t have to be bronze, silver or gold.

 

The metallic look is perfect for channelling an old world, antique vibe. Just like this two-tiered wedding cake with a silver bottom layer and antique silver accents from The Cake Hag.

 

Don’t forget, the metallic cake trend doesn’t have to be too in your face. For example, check out this three-tiered white wedding cake with delicate gold piped details and sugar flower from The Sugar Suite.
