Alice in Wonderland Cake
 |
Every bride has a special idea of her own as to what type of wedding she would like to have. She chooses a theme that exemplifies some quality she has or wants to portray. Therefore, we have traditional brides who want their wedding to be just like every other bride. Then we also have that nontraditional bride who wants to show her creative side. This bride chooses a theme that is important to her. For instance, a bride might want to have a wedding that pays tribute to her favorite childhood story like Alice in Wonderland. Marriage is certainly a step into Wonderland for any young bride. It is a true leap of faith. If the theme is Alice in Wonderland, then the cake must be an Alice in Wonderland cake.
Most any baker can easily take the Alice in Wonderland idea and run with it to make a beautiful wedding cake. First the bride should choose exactly which characters she wants presented in the cake or the cake will be a jumble of fictional characters. Of course, Alice is the premier character on the cake. Because Alice wears blue, the predominate color of the wedding cake will also be a nice pastel blue. Obviously, you will also want the cake to be white. Some of the other characters on the wedding cake will not be blue which is fine. As long as the other colors aren’t too wild, the cake will be beautiful.
One of the most memorable characters in Alice in Wonderland is the Cheshire Cat. His bright, playful smile just has to make you laugh. He certainly needs to be a part of the cake. He doesn’t have to be huge, but he can be hiding somewhere on the cake. Deciding how you want the baker to create the characters is a pretty big decision. The Cheshire cat can be a 3D figure or painted on the cake. Discussing this decision with the baker can make a difference in the price of the cake. If the baker has to make any of the characters with molding chocolate and then painted, the price rises because the process is labor intensive. A 3D character is prettier but the painted version is fine too.
Two other characters who simply must be on the cake are the March Hare and the Mad Hatter. Colorful and funny, these characters are so easily recognizable and complement the cat and Alice. Again the decision about whether or not to make them 3D or painted comes into play. Even if Alice and the Cheshire car are 3D, these characters can be painted in living color. Making them fairly small will not make the cake look cluttered.
Last but not least is the Queen and her never ending tea party. The Queen and her party can make for a very pretty portion of the cake. The Queen can be 3D and the tea party can be her background and painted.
When deciding about whether to go with painted figures or 3 D characters, the bride should discuss price with the baker. If money is no object, 3D is such a statement. These decisions are must be made before the cake is sketched by the baker. The bride may even want to have both sketches. Then a decision can be made as to which best illustrates the bride’s vision.
