As more and more people opt for fresh and fun beach weddings rather than sticking to the traditional ones, the ideas for wedding cakes have also undergone a transformation. A wedding cake decorated in the beach theme motif serves as the perfect complement for a beach wedding theme. Although you may have found the perfect tropical wedding flowers, picked up the best beach-themed invitations, and the prettiest wedding dress, your beach nuptials and reception would be rather incomplete.

Beautiful Cake Designs for a Beach Wedding

Seashells: One of the favorite and most commonly chosen cake designs for weddings are ones that include seashells, either as the key elements or as accents to the original design. The motifs can be created from marzipans, icing, molded chocolates, or simply from other candies. You can team up your seashells with other underwater creatures such as colorful sea urchins, corals, and fish. Complete your ocean floor by scattering white chocolate shells, sand dollars, and starfish on each of the cake tiers.

Tropical Flowers: Tropical and bright flowers are stunning design elements that can transform the drab boring three-tiered wedding cakes into a fun wedding cake. You can either opt for fresh flowers or have edible ones made from icing or gum paste. Decorated as bouquets, elegant cake edgings, cascades, and flowers add a touch of beauty to any wedding cake. Although fresh orchids do look beautiful and also add a tropical touch to the cake, they can wilt when kept out for a longer time. Instead, ask the baker to create island-style blooms of hibiscus and edible palm leaves created from fondant or buttercream to decorate the tiers of the cake.

Sandcastle Wedding Cakes: Wedding cakes shaped as sandcastles are perfect for a beach wedding. Made to resemble a natural-colored sandcastle, these unusual wedding cakes can be decorated with fun seashells and other sea life accents.
The Colors
Although most people traditionally stick to white wedding cakes, a beach theme allows you to explore other color options for your cake. The marine cake colors include blue, green and beige to reflect the colors of the sea. Introduce a tropical feel by selecting bright colors such as fuchsia, orange and bright yellow. Maritime such as red, white and navy blue can be used if you have a nautical theme wedding cake.

The Flavors
A wedding cake needs to look great on the exterior but also taste delicious to the guests. While a chocolate cake might work great, for a beach wedding you might want to consider lighter and less richer flavors. Fruit flavors such as coconut, pineapple, lemon orange, or a feisty lime may make for great wedding cake flavors. To add a richer taste, opt for rum or liquor as the cake filling.
