Black and White Wedding Cake

A black and white wedding cake makes an impressive presentation for a black and white wedding theme.

You can create a spectacular simple wedding cake using white fondant icing and black ribbon made from black fondant icing or you could use black satin ribbon.

For a more dramatic look alternate the cakes making one tier white, then black, and so on. On the black cakes you can pipe on some white scrolls. Or you can have all black tiers with white piping.

For more ideas on how different the cakes can be, just take a look at the pictures below.
