Dessert Au Naturel: Unfrosted Wedding Cakes

Let’s take a look beneath it all…the buttercream and fondant, that is. There is an inherent rusticity about an unfrosted cake and for those who enjoy what’s inside more than the (sometimes too heavily) frosted exterior this might be a perfect choice. You may even want to think outside the (cake) box altogether and opt for an entirely nontraditional crepe, pancake, or cookie cake. Finished off with a minimal flourish of flowers, fruit, or dusting of powdered sugar, these naked cakes are definitely on our “sweet list.” Check out our cake gallery for more inspiration.
