Should You Have a Wedding Cake or Cupcakes? 

When it comes to the food at your wedding, this can be a hard decision to make. You are going to have so much time and planning involved in your wedding that you may be confused about all that you have to do.  When you are trying to figure out what is best for your wedding cake, this can be frustrating too.

Some people think that you have to have a wedding cake.  This is not so.  You can have whatever you want to have for your special dessert at your wedding. After all it is your wedding and you are in control.  Some like to have cupcakes for their wedding treat.  This is a great idea and one that can be a lot of fun.

There is no rule that states that you have to have a wedding cake at your wedding.  In fact, you can do what you want.  There are many people that have cup cakes for their special dessert and this is not a problem.  In fact, it may go over better than some huge cake that is going to melt before it is time to even eat it. 

Cupcakes will work out very well for most people.  They will be able to divide them up better between the guests.  Usually there is less waste as well because the cup cakes are just the perfect size and amount of sweet treat for the guests to enjoy.  There is nothing wrong with having cute little cup cakes for the wedding.

You can have your cupcakes designed in any way that you want.  There are so many choices just like you would have for a wedding cake. You can do colors and designs just like you would if it were your wedding cake.  In fact, you can line up your cup cakes to look just like a tiered cake so that there is no difference at all in the way that it looks.

For the colors of frosting, you can have your wedding colors.  This would be a beautiful way to express your wedding planning and to have a great looking treat as well.  You can use the same great props for the wedding cup cakes that you would use for the wedding cake.  You can have your little man and woman on the top of the mountain of cupcakes to keep the more traditional feeling if you would so desire. 

With cupcakes, you can have more of a selection to choose from for your guests. You can have all different flavors of cake mix for them.  You can have vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and any other flavor that you can think of.  You can also use different flavors of icing mix too.  To keep them all separated, you can use different colors of foil for the bottoms of the cup cakes and this will make it easier to pick out the flavor that you want.

Give your guests a choice when it comes to what they want for their treat.  You will find that this is a very neat idea and one that your guests will be able to appreciate more.  You will get a great response from everyone that attends including the children.  They will just love this idea.

Usually anyone that makes cakes will also make wedding cup cakes.  They will be able to create a tower of cupcakes to match exactly what you are looking for to compliment your special day.  They should be able to come up with what you are looking for and the cost is usually about the same. 

Do not be afraid to be a little bit different and go for what you want to impress your guests at your wedding.
