Pearls an accessory of fine elegance if exquisitely decorated onto Wedding Cakes but the best accessory you can have at the side of any wedding cake (is a knife) ask any one with a sweet tooth waiting for a slice of the action.
Would you believe that in the past years Wedding Cakes were actually crumbled up and thrown over the bride? Unfortunately in them times there was no need to impress the guest with the flavour because they never got to taste it - so the mind boggles as to why all the time and effort was put into the baking when they could have just thrown the mix over them and be done with. Wedding ceremonies today still hold with tradition in many ways but when it comes to the bakers confection you will be happy to know that today the cake is eaten.
