Some enchanted forest themed wedding cakes may even go “naked,” decorated only with colorful autumn berries. This is just a tiered cake without any icing and you can see the filling in between those delicious layers.
Of course, nobody would say no to a chocolate ganache cake topped with berries, amiright?

Mountains, snow, forest creatures, birch trees and all things winter…they all relate to a winter woodland wedding, and there are some gorgeous cakes to go with that!
From drip cakes decorated with moody-colored flowers to cakes that look like tree bark with the couple’s initials carved on the icing, there is something for all winter-loving couples. You can even set your cake on top of a piece of wood to add to the rustic feel.

Enter the buttercream. This mixture of butter and powdered sugar holds its shape during the cold winter months. Peppermint and double-chocolate, spiced pear, brown butter spice with cream cheese & maple buttercream were some of the favorite winter enchanted forest themed wedding cakes last year. What flavors will you choose this year?

Using an "enchanted forest" as the design for a wedding cake really feels like a unique idea. Fantasy settings are some of my partner's favorite things, and I'm sure she'll enjoy the ceremony if we manage a design like this for our cake. I'll look for a bakery in the area that can offer us some customizable cakes and use this idea for sure.
