The history of the reverse creaming method

1. Consider the Occasion

Why does reverse creaming make great cake?

Each event has its own style and mood, and your cake should reflect that. Here are some tips for choosing the right cake based on the occasion:

Weddings: Wedding cakes are all about elegance and personalization. Whether you prefer a multi-tiered showstopper or a simple, elegant design, it’s important to consider the theme of your wedding. We offer customized wedding cakes that reflect your unique love story, with options for classic or contemporary designs.
Birthdays: Birthday cakes should be fun and personalized to reflect the personality of the birthday person. From colorful designs for kids to elegant adult-themed cakes, we offer a range of options that can be tailored to your exact needs.
Baptisms & Holy Communion: Religious celebrations call for a balance of elegance and tradition. Our cakes for these occasions are designed with care, incorporating beautiful details like delicate crosses, soft florals, or angels.

2. Choose the Right Flavor

At Mariamsbakehouse, we pride ourselves on using only the finest ingredients, ensuring each cake is as delicious as it is beautiful. Here are some popular flavor combinations:

Classic Vanilla & Buttercream: Perfect for any occasion, this flavor is a favorite for its light and versatile taste.
Chocolate Fudge: For the chocoholics! Rich, moist, and indulgent, this flavor is perfect for birthdays or weddings with a chocolate-loving crowd.
Red Velvet: A sophisticated choice, especially popular for weddings and anniversaries, with its unique flavor and beautiful appearance.
Seasonal Flavors: Looking for something festive? Try our seasonal cakes that feature flavors like spiced cinnamon for winter or fresh citrus for summer.

3. Design & Customization

Once you’ve selected the flavor, it’s time to think about design. Here’s how to approach customizing your cake:

Themed Cakes: Whether it’s a superhero birthday cake or a rustic wedding cake, we can design a cake that matches your vision.
Color Schemes: Consider the event’s color palette, as the cake can be customized to blend beautifully with your decor.
Personalized Touches: From custom toppers to hand-piped messages, we can incorporate personal elements that make your cake unique.

4. Don’t Forget the Size

One of the biggest decisions is choosing the right size. You want to ensure that everyone gets a slice, but you also don’t want to have too much leftover. As a rule of thumb:

Wedding Cakes: Typically, a 3-tier cake can serve up to 100 guests. For larger weddings, a 4-tier cake is ideal.
Birthday Cakes: A simple 1- or 2-tier cake usually works for smaller gatherings, serving between 20-50 people.
