Re: round or square wedding cake?!

I would go with round because when I think of cheesecake, that's the shape i think of...

Does she have a website that way you can see the cakes. When you see them you will know for sure what you like.

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

I think it really depends on how you are decorating the cake...My cake has swags, so it made more sense to me to go with round. I think they both are beautiful though!

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

it's much less the shape than it is the style of decoration....

search the knot and martha stewart and look for pics of cakes you like...

you'll notice a trend, and then can email the pics to your baker....

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

I think square looks more modern, so think of it that way. Is your reception classic or more modern?

I'm having a cheesecake wedding cake too! My mom's making it, it's the one from the old Martha Stewart's "Weddings" book, the one from the 80s. Great cake, she made it for my sister's wedding. It will have two tiers, as we're also having a cupcake tower and a groom's cake. Lotsa cake!

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

I voted for round but I really like both...

I have a question regarding the Cheesecake cake though...

Doesn't it have to be refigerated??? Won't it go bad if it sits out for like 4 hours?

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

square cakes are gorgeous but i personally am doing round. Just because when i think of weddings, i try to keep everything 'eternal'.. the rings, the stone on the ring, the CAKE LOL.. i know its dumb but thats my reasoning for doing a round cake!

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

awww thanks chicas!! round cake won in the poll but i'll let FH have the final say. i'll pretend it's his choice as for the cheesecake sitting out for four hours, i don't think it'll spoil or anything, but i will def ask the bakery when i meet with them. thanks again!!!

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

I prefer round, however I think it depends on your individual wedding. Square tends to be the new thing -- its more modern and chic. Round is a little more traditional, romantic and soft. My suggestion would be to think of the theme of your wedding -- do you consider your wedding more classy and modern, or more traditional and "soft"???

Re: round or square wedding cake?!

that's a toughy.... I love the way square looks, not as traditional - but with cheesecake would automatically think round.
