Fake-out

A woman I know had a beautiful wedding cake- but turns out it was a display cake!

She had a cheap but delicious sheet cake already sliced in the kitchen... everyone admired the display cake, and no one really noticed when they didn't do the cutting of the cake event!

by: Katie

The cake my fiance and I want is $225 which is a good price. However, I am really loving the fake cake idea. Sheet cakes at this bakery are about $50. Costco sheet cakes are even cheaper, around $15-$20.

I am going to try the fake cake, but I am adding something to it. I am going to use a display cake that is two tiers. I'm going to buy a large round cake (or make one) and put it on the bottom of the two tiered cake making it a 3 tiered cake. Since the bottom cake is real, we can still do the cake cutting.

This is how I'm making the cake. I'm buying foam pieces that are 9" and 6 " that are in the shape of a cakes. I'm going to frost them with plain white frosting. Then I will decorate the cake with ribbons and flowers. There is a video on this site that shows how to do this.

I'll have sheet cakes of our favorite flavor of cake that my fiance and I picked out at the wedding bakery we liked. I will also pick up a large round cake for the bottom layer, or I could make it.

I like it- can't hurt and did it end up saving the bride money?
