The Cake Box Monument

Don’t worry this isn’t going to be long! Just wanted to share a novel idea of a wedding cake structure I saw at a friend’s wedding recently, me being the money saver buff, I was immediately captivated by the thought of “dollars” it’s going to save!
We have seen the cup cake structure – another budget cake structure/money saver, but this one was just different. It was arranged with cake boxes itself and ofcourse there was one piece of real cake made for the bride and groom to cut and exchange pieces. In my friends case it was a 3 tier one, with 2 lovebirds in a small cage, now I don’t like birds idea cuz there is no way we are going to cage two birds at our expense!  BUT you can have something else instead. For our wedding too we plan on having that arrangement, with our table décor on top of the cake, nothing special, but good enough for us!
Our arrangement is also a 3 tier one which requires 250 cake boxes (with cake!) and towards the end of the wedding we hope to take the boxes off the structure and serve em! So nothing is wasted!


I need to be honest though for some of you this might come across as a cheapskate idea, but what I like the most, jokes apart, is that its different and unique in comparison to the same ol’ inedible wedding cake structures we see every day! 
So if you don’t like cake boxes or cup cakes, be original somehow! like 1 big chocolate cake structure or some multi flavored cake thingy for people to just come and dig in! (got carried away again)

You sure you want an inedible fake cake instead of the real deal? Think about it ;)

  3. I think this fake cake business is annoying. So right about having real cake and serving all.

  4. @santhoshi - well yeah i guess the thing is even fake cakes are cuz most people dont wanna spend on having the real deal, it would obviously cost a fortune to have ur dream cake REAL.... so ppl settle for merely the outlook of the dream cake and just have a teeny piece to exchange!
    All depends on what each couple is comfortable with i guess! :)

  5. No what I meant is sometimes the fake cake is more expensive than the real cake. It came as a shock when i found that out recently.

    They just use the regifoam over and over and charge u a bomb.
