Brides say, "Take the cake!"
Categories: Nutrition & Supplements
Some brides are saying "no thanks" to wedding cakes these days. It's not because of the calories, the sugar, or the fat dripping from these decadent displays. It's the expense that has them ditching tradition.
As the costs of weddings soar, some couples are cutting corners by ditching the real cake and using a replica made of foam. With cakes costing an average of $543, the $100 foam knock-off becomes quite a steal.
Trade the real deal for a fake cake, and no one will even know a switch has been made. The fake cake looks completely authentic and even has a special compartment tucked in the back for hiding that special first piece. After the bride and groom take their tastes, the cake gets whisked away and guests are served something less pricey.

I agree. When I got married, we looked at all the expenses, and starting out we felt some items were not needed to spend the money on. The first thing to go was the cake. We agreed that as nice as they are, most of the time they taste blend. We skipped it all together and instead we purchased inexpensive cheesecakes we like from a local baker and put one on each table and made a centre piece out of them. We spend a lot less money, and haven't regreted it.
