Mini Cakes


We have all seen cupcakes instead of a traditional wedding cake for years. They are really cute and we love them because they are so practical. You can eat it with your hand and you take what you want not what is handed to you.
But, we are also loving the mini cakes that have been popping up everywhere, too.
These are so cute and lots of fun because each guest can bring one home; they double as the favor. Of course, you have a few as display and as the ‘wedding cake’ for cutting but each guest gets one in an individually wrapped package to take home. Then everyone can indulge the catered desert that you paid for with dinner any way.
It’s a win-win. Your guests get to chose their desert, you don’t have to buy an expensive cake no-one will eat, all the guests love the mini cakes to take home, and you don’t have to pay for cutting or any favors no-one keeps anyway!
We found some beautiful mini cakes on-line from Kathy Dvorski Cakes (Ontario, Canada), Debbie Brown (Ashford, Middlesex, UK) and Peggy Porschen (London, UK). Hopefully these will inspire!

We also found some cute mini cake pans from Wilton. See their web site for photos and more details.

Blog Update


Dear faithful readers we are changing the format of this blog over the next few months.

At greysquare photographics we pride ourselves on helping brides find what they need for their wedding. Since we are in the biz and you only get married once we figure we probably know a little more than the average bride. We see a lot of weddings each year and see what works. In our blog we will bring our expertise and experience to the masses. Once a month, or so, we will be interspersing our blog with wedding info and updates on what we enjoy in the biz.

We hope you enjoy the information and if you have any questions please comment or send us an e-mail.

Best Wishes,
Lara
