I Want to Be Particular About the Wedding Cake ♡
The design of the wedding cake is definitely one of the things brides want to be particular about ♡
You want to bring out a cute cake that matches the theme of the wedding and liven up the reception, right?*
However, while the design of the cake itself is important, there is a point that should not be overlooked.
Don’t Overlook the Wedding Cake's [Base]!
That is the base of the wedding cake!
No matter how cute the cake is, if the base on which the cake sits is mediocre, the wonderful design will be ruined.
If the base provided by the venue is cute, there is no problem at all, but if it looks like a school lunch tray or an obviously large plate meant for a buffet, or if the color doesn’t match, it can be tragic...
Especially for brides having a natural wedding, the design of the base is super important.
Even if you have prepared a naturally cute wedding cake, if it's sitting on a base with too much decoration or a cold metal base, the wonderful world of your wedding could be destroyed...!
Recommended: Log or Stump Cake Base ♡
What I recommend for brides having a natural wedding is to use a log or stump as the cake base*
Logs and stumps are a staple decoration item to display along with the flowers on the guest tables.
Just placing them adds a natural feel, making them very stylish as a cake base too♡
Here are some examples of wedding cakes on a log or stump base*
Natural and Cute ♡ Wedding Cake on Log or Stump Base ①
This cute naked cake with cream drooping from it. Naked cakes are a representative of natural wedding cakes, right? ♡
By placing it on three slices of log rounds and decorating around it with fake green vines, it gives an atmosphere reminiscent of a wedding in the woods*
I believe the naked cake looks this naturally cute only because of the log base♡

An elegant all-white three-tiered cake ♡ The wooden cake topper is natural and lovely too*
The cake base is a substantial log! A log with bark adds even more presence♡
From a distance, it looks like this ♡
Since a thick log is used, the wedding cake is at the eye level of the bride and groom.
This way, guests far away can clearly see both the cake and the couple's expressions♡
Natural and Cute ♡ Wedding Cake on Log or Stump Base ③
If you can't get a large round log that can fully support the wedding cake, you can also combine smaller logs like this ◎
Logs about 30 cm in diameter can be relatively easy to find for purchase online. ♡
They match well with the naturally decorated naked cake adorned with citrus fruits*

This picture clearly shows that the cake base is an important part of the wedding cake's design. ♡
If You're Having a Natural Wedding, Be Particular About the Cake Base Too ♡
How was that?*
Just using logs or stumps for the cake base greatly increases the natural feeling and makes it super cute♡
If you want to be particular about the design of the cake, don’t forget to check the base!
Consult with your planner about whether to rent from the venue or bring your own! ♡
