Do you know about the "Color Drip Cake"?*
For all the brides-to-be considering wedding cake designs, have you heard of the "Color Drip Cake"??* The "Color Drip Cake" is a design that looks like sauce is melting down from the top of the cake♡ This unique and cute design, reminiscent of an illustration, is gaining popularity overseas*
In Japan, brides are also starting to incorporate this "Color Drip Cake" into their wedding cakes♡ And the most appealing aspect is the performance known as "Color Drip" or "Dripping Cake" that completes the Color Drip Cake♡
What is the "Color Drip" performance??*
The "Color Drip" is a performance where sauce is poured over the wedding cake to complete the Color Drip Cake♡ More and more brides are opting for this "Color Drip" as a representation of their "first joint task" instead of the traditional cake cutting ceremony!
This time, we will introduce the method and charms of the "Color Drip" step by step! First, let's look at how to perform the "Color Drip"♩
The method for the Color Drip is simple♡ Prepare a wedding cake without sauce and a container made of glass, enamel, or metal filled with sauce. Once the guests are gathered in front of the cake, the bride and groom pour the sauce on the cake together♡
When pouring the sauce, the couple can either hold one container together or have two separate containers—both options are fine♡ Be mindful to pour in a way that the sauce drips visibly toward the guests in front*
Once the sauce is poured, they can freely enjoy performances such as the first bite and the last bite♡ While pouring the sauce, guests will likely take lots of photos and videos*
The charms of the "Color Drip" performance*① A rare and unique performance that is still uncommon*
When it comes to wedding cake performances, "cake cutting" and "first bite" often come to mind. While these are wonderful performances that excite guests, they are standard and lack surprise or novelty. With the Color Drip, since few brides are incorporating it, guests will surely be intrigued and ask, "What’s happening?!"♡
The charms of the "Color Drip" performance*② It’s fun for guests and adds an element of excitement*
One of the charms of the Color Drip is that guests can join in on the excitement* It sounds fun to receive enthusiastic (or playful) comments from guests like "You're pouring too much!" "Slow down!" "The right side is totally dry! Haha" as you pour the sauce♡
The charms of the "Color Drip" performance*③ Enjoying two patterns of wedding cake design♡
Thinking about the wedding cake design is super fun, right?♡ The Color Drip performance allows you to enjoy two patterns of wedding cakes: "before the sauce is poured" and "after it’s poured," making it doubly delightful!♡
It’s also fun to think about what sauce would go well with the wedding cake♡ Choose both taste and appearance carefully* Popular options seem to include caramel, strawberry, and honey♡
