Emma from Let’Em Eat Cake has some great advice for you!
July weddings should guarantee the beautiful sunny day every bride expects but there are a few things to consider when ordering your wedding cake. The fashion for naked, semi naked and buttercream finished cakes has been very popular but most bakers will try and sway you away from those in the summer months mainly because we cannot guarantee that the cake will not melt therefore spoiling the overall look of the cake. Even fondant covered cakes can struggle in the heat especially if they are filled with buttercream and finished with buttercream before applying the fondant. What you do see is a lot of bagging around the cake and the layers start showing, again not the affect you hoping for.
