You'll be surprised to find that greenery is so versatile, you can add it to just about any style of cake you can think of. Click through the slideshow below to see our green botanical cake ideas.
-
Leafy Greens
This is the easiest way to decorate your green botanical cake—just add leaves! As the saying goes, less is more. This understated cake will be especially suitable for a low-key, intimate celebration.
-
Clean and Contemporary
This is one for the minimalist brides. Make your wedding cake stand out from the other all-white options by adding a hint of greenery. Instead of old-fashioned lace patterns, opt for clean finishes for a modern flair.
-
Wrapped in Wreaths
Add a rustic vibe by playing around with earthy wreaths. Drawing inspiration from wild and mysterious forests, this cake will look great in a dreamy fairy-tale wedding. You can also add some flowers between the leaves.
-
Succulents Are Back
Succulents in weddings don’t need to be predictable or overdone. With so many shapes and types to choose from, succulents are a worthy addition to your green botanical wedding cake.
-
Hanging Cake
Whether it’s hung upright or upside down, your suspended cake is a statement-making element that will catch the eye of every guest. These greenery-adorned hanging cakes will fit right into a laid-back bohemian wedding.
-
Shades of Ombré
Why not combine two trends into one tasty wedding cake? The blue cake on the left will be perfect for your upcoming seaside nuptials. There’s nothing like an ombre cake to represent the gradient colors of the rolling waves.
-
Classic White
Here’s one for an elegant all-white wedding. Alongside greenery, place white flowers on your wedding cake. Limit the types of flowers so you can stick with an exact shade of white. You can always sprinkle some gold for a more glamorous effect.
-
Glamorous Art Deco
Even extravagant 1920s-inspired weddings still have room for green botanical cakes with a hint of art deco. This is a chance to explore many different geometric shapes and elements to add to your cake.
-
Luxurious Marble
If you’re still in love with last year’s trendy marble cake, worry not as it can still be combined with the green botanical theme. Steal the classy looks above and ask your trusted baker to create your own special marble-meets-greenery cake.
-
Fresh Fruits
As a refreshing touch, add fruits that aren’t just tasty to eat but also beautiful to look at—like pears, peaches, or different kinds of berries. If you’re planning a fall wedding, you can’t go wrong with this option.
-
Unusual Colors
Go beyond the safe shades of white and choose bolder colors for your wedding cake. Here, we have some examples of pink and blue cakes adorned with greenery. Don’t they look lovely?
-
A Pop of Color
If choosing a bold-colored base is too much for you, try this instead. Find flowers in your favorite shade and add them to your cake without removing all the leaves. This is an easy and subtle way to add some color to your cake.
-
Naked Cake
These unfrosted cakes won’t only add a warm atmosphere to your whole celebration, they’ll also last longer outdoors! Plus, they also look fantastic combined with greenery along with some fruits or flowers that you love.
-
Mixed Elements
Don’t limit yourself to just one type of cake decoration. Mix-and-match leaves, succulents, fruits, or any other botanical element you can get your hands on. Dare yourself to think of a green botanical cake that no one has ever made before.
-
Playful Twist
If none of these options are bold or interesting enough for you, add an unpredictable twist to your cake. For example, coat a tier of cake with vibrant gold icing. Anything you do, make sure it still looks good with greenery.
