175866 Cake by <a href="http://webakeinheels.com/index.htm" target="_blank">We Bake In Heels</a> in Toronto From the designer: "I was greatly inspired by the incredible fashion house Balmain. Their 2012 collection was stunning -- Faberge egg-inspired and adorned with crystals and pearls. This is definitely a cake for the bride who appreciates the finer details. I used a combination of fondant, sugar pearls, edible glitter, candy jewels, more sugar pearls, more glitter, and finished it off with a gum ball on top."

175867 Cake by <a href="http://www.bobbetteandbelle.com/" target="_blank">Bobbette & Belle</a> in Toronto From the designer: "For this design I was inspired by the shimmering look of sequins. They are a great way to incorporate the metallic trend and when the light reflects off the hand-painted dots they create a sparkling effect. The sugar flowers add a touch of colour and soften the look. This is a design that would work well for a wide variety of weddings, but would be particularly well-suited to a formal evening wedding. The flowers are handmade gum paste flowers that were then hand-painted. The "sequin" dots are also hand painted on the cake in edible 24 carat gold."

175869 Cake by <a href="http://www.cakestudio.ca/" target="_blank">Cake Studio</a> in Winnipeg From the designer: "This is definitely a statuesque wedding cake. The inspiration comes from our city's own historic landmark luxury hotel. Taking a closer look at its grand ballrooms (with ornate and opulent decor) a wedding cake design was born. This beauty is best suited for the wedding couple who appreciate the finer things in life, especially on their wedding day! From its classic colour palette of white and 24 carat gold with accents of dark blue, to the stunning life-like handmade sugar flowers featuring ranunculus, cymbidiums and black berries–this show-stopper cake will have your guests in awe!"

175870 Cake by <a href="http://www.lafabrikagateaux.com/" target="_blank">La Fabrik A Gateaux</a> in Montreal From the designer: "The original inspiration for my creation was a rustic chic theme. I mixed two mediums: buttercream and fondant, on the same cake to achieve a look that was both rustic and polished. As for the flowers, these are all handmade from gum paste. I chose succulents and small berries, since, for me, these flowers really represent that rustic style." Photography courtesy <a href="http://www.junophoto.com/en/" target="_blank">JunoPhoto</a>.

175871 Cake by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/citygirlcakes" target="_blank">City Girl Cakes</a> in Halifax From the designer: "The inspiration for this cake came from a magazine ad for Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet fragrance. Natalie Portman wears this amazing white dress with tiny petal blossoms in an ombre colour pattern from the bottom coming up to the top. The colour palette for the cake (white and silver with various shades of purple and pink) came directly from that dress and a floral arrangement used in another ad for the fragrance. This style is perfect for the couple looking for a romantic cake with a bit of a modern flair. The bottom tier features multi-coloured fondant ruffles in an ombre pattern, followed by the popular silver metallic look. The extended middle tier is wrapped with satin ribbon in a modern crisscross pattern. The top tier is kept simple to showcase the sugar fantasy flowers cascading from the top and over the side."

It is decorated with fresh whipped buttercream icing and is finished with a satin ribbon border. This cake would be ideal for a bride with a love for vintage details."

175873 Cake by <a href="http://www.sweettreatsbyjen.ca/" target="_blank">Sweet Treats by Jen</a> in Toronto From the designer: "I really love vintage Victorian weddings and that's where I got my inspiration from. Also, I wanted to give it a summer feel so I thought the orange flowers would complement the gold quite nicely. The cake is covered in fondant and detailed with royal icing. The piped royal icing patterns were painted with an edible gold. The roses are made from gum paste dusted with a pink edible food colouring and set with steam to give them a realistic look."

175874 Cake by <a href="http://www.rosegateaux.com/" target="_blank">Rose Gateaux</a> in Sainte-Cécile de Milton, Québec From the designer: "I wanted to showcase the floral motif in the middle of the cake and mix modern and vintage influences. For this, I chose peach ombré and green colours. The black pearls add a touch of elegance to the cake, especially since they are rare and expensive in real life. In the ocean, pearls come in all different sizes, which is why I played with this variation on the cake. The flowers and fan are made of fondant and royal icing. In my opinion, this would please a young bride looking for a modern and prestigious cake." Photography courtesy <a href="http://www.junophoto.com/en/" target="_blank">JunoPhoto</a>.

175875 Cake by <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sugarbloomsandcakes" target="_blank">Sugar Blooms and Cakes by Genevieve</a> in Winnipeg From the designer: "The inspiration of this cake came from Barong Tagalog fabric – a traditional, embroidered material from the Philippines. It is worn for big occasions of celebration such as weddings. We wanted to capture the simplistic beauty of the fabric and highlight the elegance of the embroidery and showcase a wedding cake that represents our Filipino roots. We used Rosals, a Filipino flower, similar to an open rose, and cake toppers portraying a couple dressed in traditional Filipino garments. The type of bride that would best suite this wedding cake would be one who may not have grown up in the Philippines, but holds her Filipino heritage close to her heart. She is a bride who wants something different for her wedding cake, and not the usual cake trends that we tend to see during the wedding season. The three tiers are all covered in fondant. The middle tier has an additional covering of edible wafer paper. Royal icing and gum paste were used for the embroidery details, and painted with gold edible paint. Edible wafer paper was also used to make the Rosals and the cake toppers were made of gum paste."

178254 Cake by <a href="http://cityviewbakehouse.com/" target="_blank">City View Bakehouse</a> in Charlottetown, P.E.I. From the designer: "Inspired by inherently romantic lace wedding dresses, this cake was created for the couple that loves timeless elegance. The cake is covered in a light ivory fondant. A special cake stencil was used to create the lace and this was accented with over-piping and pearls. The handmade flowers in the same colour as the lace add to the romance."

175876 Cake by <a href="http://www.todayssweetcakery.com/" target="_blank">Today's Sweet Cakery</a> in Castor, Alberta From the designer: "The inspiration for this cake was my very own wedding! It is a replica of what I'll have. It's perfect for a bride who loves the fun and sun of an outdoor wedding, but has also always dreamed of her elegant ballroom reception with full-length black satin table cloths, gold chargers and extravagant floral displays fit for a princess. We’re bringing the two together. The golds come from our love of gold jewellery and the chevron details add a modern touch. The bright colours of the handmade gum paste flowers bring a whimsical element to this elegant cake. The cake was designed by Melissa Anne Wyliem, the owner of Today's Sweet Cakery and brought to reality by Evalena Ruth Wylie (owner), Melissa Anne Wylie (owner), and Alicia Baharally (assistant decorator/head baker)."

175877 Cake by <a href="http://truffletoronto.com/" target="_blank">Truffle Toronto</a> in Toronto From the designer: "The inspiration for this cake was the beauty and serenity of water and nature. I love the feeling of calmness that water and nature can inspire and felt that the powder blue of the cake nicely captured that, with the cascading and somewhat non-specific pattern of the edible pearls and light hand-painted effect embodying the flowing and random attributes of water. This cake would best be suited to a bride who appreciates the beauty found in nature, but also likes a bit of glamour. This cake is covered in a thin layer of fondant, and is decorated with sugar flowers, edible pearls and gum paste."

175878 Cake by <a href="http://www.whiskcakes.com/" target="_blank">Whisk Cake Company</a> in Kelowna, British Columbia From the designer: "We wanted to do something a little different, something that catches your eye and causes it to move from top to bottom, without it being too overwhelming. The flow of fabric and water always have a tendency to move the same way–breathlessly–so we wanted to try to mimic that movement with something that does not move like that at all–sugar. This five-tier wedding cake was covered in a pale pink fondant as our canvas, before adding multiple colours of pleated fondant in different directions on each tier. Once the cake was completed, we started work on our favourite part of any wedding cake–the sugar flowers. Working with the different shades of pinks and ivories, we set out to create beautiful, realistic-looking flowers that would pop against the subtle colours of the cake. Bright pink tulips and peonies contrast the subtle, smooth white freesias that were placed on the cake, adding movement and depth. This cake could be for a modern or vintage wedding. The lines in this cake lend well to all different styles, making it timeless. Cakes like these always make us smile when they are complete, making us realize everyday why we love what we do!"

176194 Cake by <a href="http://lisarobertscakes.com/" target="_blank">Lisa Roberts Cakes</a> in Windsor, Ontario From the designer: "This cake was inspired by my last trip to Paris and seeing all of the gorgeous flowers in bloom in the gardens of Versailles. I wanted to convey the opulence of the palace with the silver leaves and handmade sugar lace used on the bottom tier as well as the lush bounty of the gardens in the cascade of flowers. This fondant-covered cake features hand-painted sugar paste flowers and leaves including parrot tulips, peonies, freesias, roses and sweet peas. This cake would be ideal for a couple looking to impart an elegant and glamorous feel to their wedding."

176195 Cake by <a href="http://www.melrosebakery.ca/" target="_blank">Melrose Bakery</a> in London, Ontario. From the designer: "I really wanted to make a cake that reflects my bakery. We have been in business for 57 years. I am the third generation owner, trying to bring my personal touch to the traditional bakery. The cake has many vintage elements incorporated into a modern design. This cake is for a bride that still enjoys the traditional aspects of a wedding cake but wants to add a contemporary and personal flair. The cake was covered in different shades of coral fondant from light to dark to incorporate the ombre look that is becoming more and more popular. I used royal icing to pipe on the traditional swags and scrolling of a wedding cake. I then added cut out fondant flowers and topped the cake off with coral gum paste roses to give a classic cake a fresh and updated twist."

176196 Cake by Alice Sleiman for <a href="http://reneesfinecakes.ca/index1.asp" target="_blank">Renee's Fine Cakes</a> in Windsor, Ontario From the designer: "For this particular cake I was inspired by a green cake stand, which is a family heirloom. To me it reflects a lot of what I see in nature–an atmosphere of relaxation, simplicity, harmony, balance and well-being. The white represents a time for change, growth and transformation to pursue new ideas as a bride. This cake would be best-suited for a rustic, country style wedding. With a change in colours, this cake could also apply to a romantic, whimsical, or shabby-chic wedding. To make the decorations for this wedding cake I used gum paste, sugar, and fondant, which in turn make the greatest and most amazing sugar paste flowers."

177177 Cake by <a href="http://www.passionforcakes.com/" target="_blank">Passion For Cakes</a> in Victoria From the designer: "This cake was inspired by bright summer colours and fresh orange sorbets. The black gum paste flower and crystal accents help create a rich, high contrast design. This cake is ideal for the chic, modern couple looking for a unique and simple cake design. Passion For Cakes recommends a mango passion cake infused with fresh orange zest and coconut cream filling – to serve up a cake that tastes as good as it looks."

177178 Cake by <a href="http://www.patisseriedaniel.com/index.html" target="_blank">Patisserie Daniel</a> in Victoria From the designer: "This particular wedding cake was inspired by our West Coast weather that allows us to garden most of the year as well as the symbolism of the herbs. Many herbs have symbolic meanings that go back centuries, even millennia. Lavender represents love, happiness and peace; sage represents a long life, wisdom and longevity; thyme represents health and courage. The cake is covered with fondant, creating a canvas for Chef Daniel to artistically design the a couple's perfect garden on each tier. The Elizabethan scrolling dating back to the 16th century is then applied in white chocolate. The ribbon is then added at the end for a chic finish."

177179 Cake by <a href="http://www.cadeauxbakery.com/index2.php#/home/" target="_blank">Cadeaux Bakery</a> in Vancouver From the designer: "We were inspired by the bygone eras of the early 20th century, by beautiful Art Nouveau illustration, romance and understated elegant affairs. We wanted the overall look to encompass chic, vintage, luxurious and metallic elements. The cake would be perfectly matched with a bride who is looking for a contemporary design with a touch of antiquity. This cake would work equally well in a clean modern urban setting or a more lavish old-world hotel. Our design entails a porcelain smooth white fondant finish adorned with handmade silver sugar flowers reminiscent of antique jeweled brooches and hand-painted organic filigree pattern in tones of grey. Underneath it all lies five layers of cake and four layers of filling created from all-natural ingredients. For us, the outer look of the cake is equally as important as its freshness, quality and flavour."

177647 Cake by <a href="http://www.duchessbakeshop.com/" target="_blank">Duchess Bake Shop</a> in Edmonton From the designer: "A croquembouche is a traditional French dessert served on very special occasions. We love the idea that it's something that everyone gets to partake in by breaking off his or her own piece. It makes enjoying the dessert that much more fun. The cream puffs are held together by a hard caramel and delicately spun sugar that wraps the whole dessert, making it beautifully elegant. This cake is best suited for a bride that might be looking for something a bit non-traditional in North America. Although guests are sometimes intimidated to break off a piece, once someone starts, everyone really gets into it and it disappears quickly. The main decoration is spun sugar with a simple ribbon at the bottom. We like to keep it simple and really let the croquembouche shine on its own."

177648 Cake by <a href="http://www.overthetopcakes.ca/" target="_blank">Over The Top Cakes</a> in St. Alberta, Alberta From the designer: "We loved designing this cake. With broach bouquets and vintage decor being such a popular trend right now, we focused on a modern vintage-themed cake. This cake could appeal to a wide variety of brides, especially someone who appreciates vintage styles, but wants something with a modern twist. The oval features at the bottom are all hand-cut from gumpaste. The broaches are from personal collections and others are store-bought. We built around the theme with layers of fondant and gumpaste. There really was not an exact design for this because we decided to just build around the broaches. It looked a bit scattered when all of the pieces were laying out, but as soon as we started placing them on the cake, it all made sense. We love this cake and are so thrilled to share it!"

178258 Cake by <a href="http://www.wheredidyougetthatcake.com/" target="_blank">Where Did You Get That Cake</a> in Regina From the designer: "My cake is designed for the non-traditional bride that is not afraid to stand out with a unique and bold cake. I was inspired by one of my favorite flowers, the anemone. They represent anticipation, which is a huge part of any wedding. Being such a delicate, elegant flower, I wanted them to stand out. Hand made with gum paste in bright white with a flash of lime green, they really pop against the purple. My cake was created using fondant, edible gems and black fondant swirls."

178256 Cake by <a href="http://lovelydaydesserts.com/" target="_blank">Lovely Day Desserts</a> in Augustine Cove, P.E.I. From the designer: "My goal when making wedding cakes (and the inspiration for this cake) is to satisfy the needs of a couple that may have different tastes, but they are still able to meld together and complement each other. If the bride is set on chocolate, and the groom is more into vanilla, this Neapolitan-inspired cake swirls the two together and adds a hint of strawberry. It’s perfect for a wedding that has pinks, browns, and whites as the colour scheme, and a bride who thinks outside the box, making taste a priority. The cake is all different flavors of buttercream, with each layer adding something different."
