Delicate Compositions

Gently adorned with artfully placed blooms, we’re captured by the refreshing simplicity of wedding cakes designed with considered restraint. Blending elements of fine art with a minimalistic approach, we’re entranced by barely-there interactions of structure and stem, and a focus on lightness and form.

Moving away from the decadent floral indulgence of recent years, instead of botanicals scattered, cascading or blooming from within, every petal has a purpose and every stem has earned its place. Here, edible architecture, rather than rambling excess is the goal.

Suited to minimalistic styling and gallery-style spaces, the eye is drawn to the cake’s artistic arrangement and papery fragility. Using a solid or ornate cake stand, bolster the delicate design beside stacked ceramics and bold cutlery for serving. A collection of slender vases, each with a single reedy stem or two will perfectly complement these designs
