I'm Actually Not a Fan of Fresh Cream...!

When it comes to wedding cakes showcased at receptions or after-parties, the traditional style is the short cake type, which is generously coated with fresh cream all over, with fresh cream and fruits sandwiched in between.♡

However, there might be brides who say, "Actually, I'm not a fan of fresh cream...!" or "My partner doesn't like sweets...!"

For brides who love sweets and fresh cream, taking a bite during the first bite moment is highly anticipated. However, for those who are not fond of fresh cream, there’s the pressure to enjoy something they dislike joyfully in front of everyone, which could turn it into a gloomy moment...

It would be the worst if you forced yourself to eat something you dislike and ended up feeling unwell during the wedding. For those who need to avoid fresh cream or sweets, it's a good idea to order a type of wedding cake that you can enjoy too.*

It seems quite common for brides to consult with the chef to create a wedding cake that uses as little fresh cream as possible!

Here are some alternatives to the classic fluffy short cake for wedding cakes♩

Idea 1: Opt for a Tower Cake

The first idea is to choose a tower design stacked high with fruits and sweets instead of a wedding cake.*

☑ Macaron Tower

☑ Strawberry Tower

☑ Croquembouche

☑ Donut Tower

These are some well-known options♩

With this type of cake, you can just take a bite of fruit or a donut during the first bite, so it might feel less resistant for those who dislike fresh cream. Moreover, the visual impact of tower-style wedding cakes is significant, and guests will likely have an exciting reaction when it appears!*

Idea 2: Use Cream Cheese Instead of Fresh Cream

This cake may look like it’s loaded with fresh cream at first glance...

But in fact, what’s being spread on it is cream cheese!♡

Unlike the pure white of fresh cream, cream cheese has that stylish yellowish hue*

Here’s a design featuring a naked chocolate sponge cake with a fluffy layer of cream cheese on top.♡

A wedding cake using cream cheese instead of fresh cream will have a flavor that’s not too sweet, making it enjoyable for all ages!*

Idea 3: Go for a Chocolate Cake

Finally, how about the idea of simply choosing a chocolate cake?♡ It has a slightly bitter taste, making it more approachable for those who aren’t fond of sweets.

Chocolate cake is quite popular at bakeries, just like short cake, and is likely to please guests as well!♩

The charm of chocolate cake lies in its ability to create a mature and calm atmosphere that white fresh cream can’t provide!♡

Even If You're Not a Fan of Fresh Cream, There are Plenty of Options for Wedding Cakes♡

What do you think? I’ve introduced some types of wedding cakes other than fluffy short cakes that are perfect for brides who aren’t fans of fresh cream.*

Even if you don’t have a sweet tooth, cakes like the ones introduced this time likely use less fresh cream or none at all, making them easier to enjoy!♩

I hope every bride can encounter a delicious wedding cake that allows them to celebrate the moment of the first bite with happiness.♡
