Deconstructed Wedding Cakes: For Brides Looking to Bring A LOT of Taste

A girlfriend at work (holler for a dollar, Carolyn!) sent me a link on deconstructed wedding cakes last week, and I have to admit, it had my mouth watering for cake before the sun could rise and you could question, “Cake, for breakfast??”  With all the new (not necasarily improved) but super fun ways brides are choosing to divy out dessert on their big day, I was sooo glad to see deconstructed wedding cakes as one of them!

And don’t let the chunky, clunky name fool you, because these beauties are anything but!  Not only can the sleeker, chic’er cakes have a crisper, cleaner look, but they can also be filled with a countless number of flavors, which their larger versions are often times limited to!  Um, hello??  More cakes to sample??  Yes, please!!

Whether a bride chooses to do each cake a different flavor or a select a specific amount of tantalizing tastes to divide between the masses, these deconstructed darlings have an abundance potential that will have your head spinning.  Some brides even choose to double them as centerpieces, which encourages guests to mix ‘n’ mingle while trying to uncover which table has the BEST flavor!

Oh, and did I mention that the cost for these un-tiered dreams can be significantly, less?  Yeah, add that to the win column too, ladies!  Haha!  Check out below for even more, mouth watering examples!
