Selecting your style of cake can be confusing! And keeping in mind your cake design will depend on a lot of different considerations. Most couples prefer to save the top layer from the wedding cake for a future anniversary celebration.
But a lot of bakers are now offering a free voucher for a duplicate top layer of your cake on your anniversary. Some couples prefer this over 1 year old cake.
There are several styles of wedding cakes:
Stacked Cakes: This is where the layers are directly on top of one another.
Pillar and Plate Stacked Cakes: Notice there are supports in-between each layer of cakes.

Center Pole Cakes: This is the style of cake stand that uses a single column to support the tiers of the cake.

Asymmetrical Cakes: The simplest definition for this style of cake design is that the individual cakes are not aligned evenly around a central axis.
