Have you wondered why wedding cakes costs hit
roof? Why do they cost so much? You will be amazed to know that prices could touch $15 per person or more?
I recall how Mrs. Ingridman taught me invaluable lessons on how to lower a wedding cake price while still going for classiest of cakes. After her successful wedding, she told me how she managed to treat her guests with a mouthwatering cake which was bought at reasonable price.
She told me reasons why most wedding cakes turn out to be expensive are because cake pans used to bake them are expensive. I will list some of ways by which you can lower a wedding cake price and choose best cake for your wedding:
1. Before you agree to give an order to baker, make sure that decoration and design is right kind to suit your taste. Go through referrals and see what prices are being quoted. Look through samples first before deciding on your cake. A supermarket could offer a wide range of cakes at a lesser cost than your bakery.
2. Decide on how you want to decorate your wedding cake…whether you want to keep it simple and cute or splendid and rich. Avoid over decorating cake. It is not necessary to have a five tiered cake. You can have your cake stacked if you want.
3. Bakers who are not specially into wedding cakes could still bake best cakes and cost less. Home bakers too do not charge much and could make lovely cakes.
4. You can borrow pillars. There are disposable pillars available with your local baker or rental companies which are a better alternative than those crystal pillars if you want to cut down on cost of pillars. Let baker or your local rental company helps you with disposable pillars instead of crystal ones.
