Romantic
Although the Romantic era occurred between 1820 and 1937, it still holds a place of prominence as brides choose from delicate and ornate sugar-crafted designs to add a touch of nostalgia to their cakes. Wrap wedding cake tiers in white chocolate ribbons and add more ribbons to bouquets of sugar flowers and strands of edible pearls. Choose traditional white-on-white icing decorations that include old-fashioned roses, perhaps tinged with a hint of mellow pink, cascading down stacked cake layers for a Romantic era look.
