Monday, October 5th, 2009 - Posted by Brynn Jackson

This month Wedding And Party Network is featuring creative baby shower cake photos. These photos are so crisp and clear that they make you want to reach into them and cut off a slice for yourself. If you're in the market for a baby shower cake, grab fresh ideas from these photos!

#5 Pink Baby Shower Cake For Girl

This was actually the baby shower cake for a young lady who works with Wedding And Party Network. We can honestly say that every bite was delicious. One tier of chocolate, one of French vanilla. Mmm.

To make it fitting of a baby shower for a little girl, buttercream icing was used with pink icing accents. A pink rubber ducky, mini bunny slippers and other fun cake decorations were used as well.

#4 Twin Girls Baby Shower Cake

This is a favorite because of the creativity of the baker. Creating a baby shower cake for twin girls can be a challenge but this baker did well! She created a two tiered cake decorated with pink and white frosting.

For emphasis Ana created two cookie suckers and decorated these with pink and white frosting. She spelled out the girls' names on each cookie as well. What a great way to celebrate two new lives!

This animal baby shower cake is one tier of jungle fun for the guests. Gumpaste animal figurines in the shape of a lion, rhinoceros and a stork delivering a baby are used to complete the top tier decorations.

A large second tier is also surrounded with gumpaste figurines in jungle animal shapes. Blue icing is used to decorate the top tier, though pink could be used for a girl. Yellow icing (a very neutral color where babies are concerned) lines each tier beautifully.

#1 Bassinet Baby Shower Cake For A Girl

Bassinet baby shower cakes are very popular. This bassinet party cake took many hours to create and only a few minutes to enjoy.

The details are incredible. The little girl's name (Teryn) is written into the pillow. A teddy bear is placed where the little girl would be cradling it. Most of the cake is covered in a pink blanket made of fondant and touched with frilly accents. This cake is irresistibly sweet in so many ways.

Top Five Wedding Cake Picks For July 2009

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009 - Posted by Crystal Perez

As you all know, a wedding isn't actually complete without a wedding cake. From the simple traditional cake to the elegant three-tier, the wedding cake is a focal point of any wedding reception. After reviewing several wedding cake pictures from the WPN photo gallery, my top wedding cake picks for July are:

**drumroll David Letterman style**

#5 Pink Rose Tiered Wedding Cake

The extremely fine detailing and delicacy is what makes this wedding cake so unique. The use of delicate wedding flowers to accentuate the beauty of the cake is amazing.  My favorite design element of this particular wedding cake is all the light pink and and dark pink roses that were used between each tier. After all, pink is my favorite color which for me is a definite plus.

Although hidden under amazing wedding flowers and buttercream frosting, a delicious chocolate wedding cake resides. So as a big fan of chocolate, you can see why this stunning cake had to make it on my top 5! This cake was submitted by Sue's Sweets, a Rahway New Jersey Wedding Cake Bakery

# 4 Contemporary Black & White Wedding Cake

Funky Wedding Cake

Wow, where do I start with this dazzling black & white wedding cake. This cake puts the fun in funky. The different layers of black and white designs are what caught my eye as soon as I saw this cake.

This clearly shows what a fun and contemporary couple the bride and groom are with the square and irregularly shaped tiers. It's not everyday a wedding cake is designed with polka dots or zebra stripes, which is why this contemporary cake was also a must in my top 5!

# 3 Beach Wedding Cake

This awesome wedding cake is perfect for any beach-themed wedding. It is so striking I don't think I could bite into it without feeling a little regret. You can feel the essence of the beach in this three-tiered wedding cake. Each layer contains beautiful authentic sea shells and intriguing frosting designs.

This extraordinary cake makes me feel like I'm really in a beach atmosphere. From its seashells to the replicated brown sugared sand, I couldn't possibly have left this wedding cake off my top 5 list. This Tampa Fl wedding cake photo was submitted by G. Elliot Catering, a Tampa FL caterer.

#2 Trendy Wedding Cake

A trendy color blend of light pink, chocolate brown and pale mint green makes this is an awesome wedding cake. I would consider it fun yet still very elegant. When it comes to wedding cakes, the more contemporary the better! Although the cake has traditional round stacked layers, the detailed frosting and color scheme for the cake make it stand out. This cake is definitely trendy and contemporary wedding cake.

It's not every day that pink and brown shades are used as the color palette for a wedding cake. And that's fine with me, of course. Using pink with brown is an awesome choice. Like I said before, pink is my favorite color which is why this wedding cake couldn't be left out on my top 5! This contemporary wedding cake photo was submitted by Gourmet On The Go, a Victorville, CA wedding cake bakery.

#1. Elegance In Red – Square Wedding Cake

Rose and Fondant Wedding Cake

It's the moment you have all been waiting for! My number one wedding cake pick! Bright white fondant icing, dark red roses, and red ribbon make this square wedding cake a beautiful display. Although the design of this cake is simple, you can't deny its exquisite look for the wedding. The smooth pure white fondant makes a perfect foundation for the rich deep red accents. I have chosen this square wedding cake as my number one pick because its sure to get some "ooohs" and "aaaahs" at any wedding reception. This roses and fondant wedding cake was submitted by Just One Cakes, an Albuquerque NM wedding cake designer.

So these are my top five wedding cake picks for July. Next month we'll choose the top five wedding cakes for August and you can help! If you like a wedding cake from the photo gallery and would like to see it in the top five for August, Let us know: Vote For August Top Wedding Cake.
