wedding cake cutting guide
This guide shows how to cut popular shaped wedding tiers into pieces approximately 1 in. x 2 in. by two layers high (about 4 in.). Even if a larger serving size is desired, the order of cutting is still the same. The first step in cutting is to remove the top tier, and then begin the cutting with the 2nd tier followed by the 3rd, 4th and so on. The top tier is usually saved for the first anniversary, so it is not calculated into the serving amount.
The number of servings listed are intended as a guide only and offer a small portion of wedding cake. If cake is the only dessert and/or portions larger than 1”x2” are served, then you will have less servings than the chart indicates.
Round Tiers: Move in two inches from the tier's outer edge; cut a circle and then slice 1 in. pieces within the circle. Now move in another 2 in., cut another circle, slice 1 in. pieces and so on until the tier is completely cut. The center core of each tier and the small top tier can be cut into 3rds, 4ths, and 6ths, depending on size. | |
Square Tiers: Move in 2 in. from the outer edge and cut across. Then slice 1 in. pieces of cake. Now move in another 2 in. and slice again until the entire tier is cut. |

How to freeze Wedding cake
If you are like most couples, you want to follow the tradition of freezing the top layer of your wedding cake in order to eat it on your first anniversary. Freezing the cake is relatively simple, but you have to do it in a way that keeps it fresh for a whole year.
1
Remove the top layer of cake from the rest of the cake, and remove the cake topper or anything else that isn't edible.
2
Refrigerate the cake overnight in order to firm up the icing.
3
Wrap the cake in plastic wrap or press n seal wrap and make sure the cake is thoroughly covered. I like to cover it 2x.
4
Place the wrapped cake in freezer bags. If you want to be extra safe, you may want to double bag the cake.
5
Use a vacuum sealer or even a straw to suck out the excess air from the bags. Any oxygen left in the bag will start to suck moisture from your cake.
6
Place the wrapped/bagged cake into the large plastic bag.
7
Place the bag wrapped cake in the freezer, and do not disturb for one year.

CC's Sweet Sensations
Congratulations! You are Getting Married!! Start dreaming. Get a notebook or journal and just start jotting down ideas. Have you ever had thoughts of what you'd want that day to look like,feel like etc...
Looking at a few magazines and books will help. After you have dreamt just a little then you think about your circumstances. What can you afford. Be real clear and set on your budget because if you aren't it will cause you a lot of heartache later.
Then figure out how to make what you want with the budget you have. I hope this time willl be good for you. Enjoy being engaged. Don't let the planning take over and make you miss out. Good luck.
