Cheese Wedding Cakes - A New Wedding Tradition

Cheese Wedding Cakes - A New Wedding Tradition PR Newswire LONDON, September 12, 2012 LONDON, September 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- With only 10% of brides' parents now paying for the wedding (according to a recent poll by ICM for John Lewis), young couples are now taking charge of their big day and that means some radical changes are afoot. One that we approve of at The Fine Cheese Co. is the emergence of the Cheese Wedding Cake (http://www.finecheese.co.uk/our-cheeses/cheese-wedding- cakes.html) as the fashionable wedding cake of choice. Cheese wedding cakes have one huge advantage over a more conventional iced fruit cake - they feed the hungry while still looking the part. That makes them a perfect solution for both the cake-cutting ceremony and providing a partner for wine at the evening party, which so often follows the more formal sit-down lunch. With couples increasingly choosing their wedding details together, a cheese wedding cake needs to please both bride and groom equally. The groom (being male) usually loves cheese and takes a huge and positive interest in selecting the cheeses in the cake. In fact, we have often heard grooms say that it is the part of the wedding that they are looking forward to the most. The bride usually wants the cake to look good, and the wonderful thing about cheese is that it really does - especially when it is stacked in tiers using supports and decorated with the wedding flowers or fruits in season.
