Intimate gatherings are often the best idea where people who are close and from the most warming relations come together to celebrate a special occasion, whether a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or maybe a reunion. These events and occasions have now turned nominal, from a measured guestlist to minimal decoration. This may be due to the impact of the pandemic but even though people have chosen ‘normal’ over ‘glamour’. Well, this idea of settling for the ‘new normal’ isn’t bad at all! However, the food, decor, arrangements, and especially the desserts should match your intimate gathering.
Did someone mention the dessert? Oh yes, a delightful occasion is so scrappy without a dessert! And by that, we mean a cake. Cakes are the best thing that could ever happen to anyone at gatherings where people we adore the most are there. The best part about having a cake is that you can always have them customized. Custom cakes not only make the moments special but make every bit to be a lot more personal. Nobody said you need huge cakes to express that you are feeling blithest. With a limited group of people, you can enjoy a small and charming custom cake at your gathering.
Here are 5 custom cake ideas that you and your beloved ones could relish.
Classic and gorgeous cakes
There are a number of shapes, sizes, colors, and themes that you can enjoy but when it comes to classic cakes, less is more. A minimal amount of detailing on simple and soft pastel color or simply white, smooth textured tiers of cakes are enough to make them gorgeous. Such cakes can have smooth beaded edge lining as details to add to the beauty. Adding edible floral toppers and pearls is also an option when you are celebrating an event of love such as an anniversary or a wedding.
Mixed medium cakes
Embracing a custom cake is a treat for your eyes as well as your taste buds. Mixed medium cakes keep you drooling for more as they are full of excitement of flavors and pop of colors. Even though they are bakery-fresh, they seem to be homemade. Nothing is better than when your favorite bakery presents you with something warming and home-like. Let’s consider Lemon-Raspberry Cake, it is buttery melting with the sourness of lemon and pieces of fresh raspberries baked to mildness and topped with vanilla frosting. Add sprinklers for poppy color! Minimal yet delicious. Such cakes are best when you are celebrating your special event with your friends.
Fun-size yet elegant cakes
Miniature elegant cakes are the best to blend for something romantic and gorgeous. An anniversary, wedding, or baby-showers, mini and fun-sized cakes are here to make your event grand! These mini cakes are the best to experiment with. Creating a cake so elegant looking will leave your guests amazed with a little blast of flavors inside. Pastel pink and blue layers of cake tiered with elegant toppers and minimalistic details such as floral petals, monograms, initials, and so on. Some spectacular flavor ideas may include a delicious strawberry shortcake, fudgy peanut butter cake, or mini cherry cheesecake. Custom them any way you want.
Floral custom cakes
Floral custom cakes are stunning and timeless. Flowers always add something more to the beauty of a beautiful confection. One can either affix fresh florals to the details of the custom cake for your intimate gathering or can prefer to decorate it with edible ones. Additionally to these cakes, one can blend dripping frostings and unique cake shapes making it the finest choice for a wedding, birthday, or reunion. Painted buttercream custom cakes, a white elegant cake decorated with red roses and edible pearls, and an ombre rosette cake are some trendy ideas that would make your intimate gathering extraordinary.
Edible tenderness
Well, nothing outstanding other than eating those pretty toppers and decorations on the cake. When the cakes look pretty they taste even finer. For a cake that looks elegant and simple, decorating it with edible gold leaves will beautify them to another level. Fondant-made custom structures not only make the custom cake five-starred but allows you to play around with cake shape and colors. Mini sea-themed edible cake decorations are most suitable if you are getting married on the shore. Colorful sanding sugar, edible pearls or beads, and flowers can take your custom cake game to another level!
