Everyone needs a little bling in their lives. And these cakes are guaranteed to make the recipient feel like a million dollars.
We’ve been inspired by the words of cake decorating maestro Bryson Perkins, who shared his love for gold cakes in our latest Cake Royalty blog post. If, like Bryson, you’re a big fan of all that glitters, read on for some golden cake inspiration…
Inspired by gold
Golden Damask Rose Wedding Cake
Let’s kick off with a twist on the classic wedding cake. The variety of textures on this beautiful cake make it stand out from the crowd and the muted gold, adorned with complementary off white roses keeps it classy and subtle. This one’s designed by our very own Paul Bradford, and you can learn how to make it here.
As far as shades of gold go, rose gold is so hot right now. This sparkly wedding cake featured on Friar Tux blog strikes the perfect balance between bronze and full on gold.
Whoever said gold cakes have to be boring? This pineapple wedding cake by Adorn Cakes sidesteps convention and wholeheartedly embraces the gold cake trend.
Gold cakes aren’t just for adults. We love this star inspired kids’ cake we found on Pinterest – perfect for the little superstar in your life!
Hanging Chandelier Wedding Cake
This is one gold cake that laughs in the face of the laws of gravity. The warm gold palette and lace gives a luxurious feel to Dawn Butler’s impressive creation. If you’ve already fallen in love, you can learn to make your very own, in this tutorial.
This little number from Paper & Lace fits right in with the contemporary metallic cakes trend. The colours are rich and sumptuous, yet the design is so simple and clean. Is this a modern classic?
And finally, how could we do a post about gold cakes without featuring one from the cake designer who inspired us?! What a masterpiece!
