Tips and advice on finding Ventura and Santa Barbara area wedding cakes:
Visit a few bakers in Ventura and Santa Barbara and you will find that wedding cakes these days are actually designed by highly trained "cake designers". The cakes are very elaborate and most cakes are something other than vanilla flavored. Buttercream and cheesecake are very popular - and so are the many variations of chocolate out there. In addition, many wedding cakes are filled with fruits, custards and mousses. Yummy!

The icing on wedding cakes can also be very different and creative. Plain white and pastel icing doesn't satisfy most brides. Many choose to have the icing coordinate with their wedding colors.

As for today's cake designs – at least in the Ventura and Santa Barbara area, it seems that anything goes. Stacked cakes still seem to be the way to go but the designs are quite creative. Cakes can be shaped like stacked gifts, stacked hat boxes, stacked cupcakes - you name it! Basketweave cakes come in and out of style but it seems to be a wedding cake design staple.

Displaying your wedding cake: The wedding cake should be displayed on a table by itself where it can be admired by all of the guests. Some Brides decorate the table with flowers, arches, or even balloons. Many use cake stands from single tiers to more elaborate 7 tier cake stands. Some brides choose to have the cake as the centerpiece for the buffet table, but most agree that the cake should have its own table.
