Inspired by the base tier arrangement of the royal wedding cake of the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge, petal shaped wedding cakes have made a huge comeback in cake design. No longer a throwback to 1980’s style sugarcraft, cake design couturiers, Peggy Porschen<\/a> & Faye Cahill<\/a> have made petal shaped cake tiers ultra stylish again showcasing stately wedding cake designs on petal shaped base tiers for the ultimate in wedding cake grandeur.<\/p>\n

One of Faye’s deluxe creations for the coming season features above left and on the right, a pretty broderie anglaise inspired wedding cake incorporating a petal shaped tier for extra visual interest, as featured in Martha Stewart’s Wedding Cakes<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n

Sweet Bloom<\/a>, Australia have created a beautiful lace adorned wedding cake below with soft, peach blooms nestling between the crevices of the petal-shaped base tier for an exquisitely feminine wedding cake design.<\/p>\n
