Have a look at some of our favorite unique wedding cake designs to find the one that is especially for you.

Unique wedding cakes come in all shapes and sizes and some come in especially unique designs that are pleasing to the eye.

Consider dark wedding cakes that completely stray from the norm and all that is traditional. While they may not be very popular, dark wedding cakes are definitely unique. The good thing about the dark surface of this type of cake is that it can act as a canvas for all sorts of designs, from bright floral hand paintings, to actual sugar blossoms in bold or pastel colors.

Another unique wedding cake idea is a cake of mixed shapes and mixed finishes. Each tier can be uniquely decorated and shaped in round or hexagon shapes alongside autumn hues and burnished tones. Can be finished with an adornment of soft petals in pink, green, red or white, to fit with the wedding theme.

If you want elegant unique wedding cakes, you might want to consider vintage designs, especially if this is in line with your wedding theme.

Consider a semi naked chocolate wedding cake of mixed mediums. The bottom layer can be covered in the color of gleaming metallic gold in the true vintage fashion. Decorate with a string of pastel florals and crimson hues. Add some greenery to complete the tasteful and unique look.

Another option is the traditional five tiered, all white wedding cake adorned with gold and white sugar flowers travelling all through the layers, and on either side. Cake flavors can be in raspberry, chocolate, salted caramel, and more.

Make a statement with unique beautiful wedding cakes that are as elegant as they are delicious.

You could try a magnificent all white cake, a monochromatic symbol of luxury and sophistication. Adorn with hand sculpted sugar florals of roses and orchids layered on each tier, flowing down from the top. A beautiful creation that can be topped with greenery if pops of color are required.

Another picture of elegance is a blue watercolor decoration laid on the base of a white fondant cake. Hand painted petals in violet and magenta can cover the tiers, perfect for a summer celebration. And if painting is too simple, you can consider elevated decorations in relief textures of flowers and strategically placed latticework.

Another on our list of unique wedding cakes ideas is the painted wedding cake. Considering you can have your cake painted in absolutely anything you desire makes it genius. And, if you are missing that ‘something blue’ for your traditional wedding, you can totally make it your wedding cake.

You could try a tiered cake of sea blue brushstrokes with a glittery base of a metallic trim. Complete with an adornment of bright and abundant seasonal blooms.

If you’d like a more luxurious option, then you could try gold instead. An elegant white cake with brushstrokes of gleamy gold. Adorn the bottom tier in soft pastel florals and greenery for that unique touch.
