Your wedding cake may not be the first detail you consider, but wedding cake inspiration is very important because aside from all those cute little exchanges throughout the wedding day, cake cutting + eating may be the *sweetest* part of the reception! Recently we’ve seen a lot of intimate weddings and micro celebrations, so we’re fortunate enough to see lots of single and two-tier cakes. And, if you didn’t already know, modern desserts are true works of art, like the masterpiece above from LiMa Cakes! From sugar work to rice paper textures and the coolest designs in between, these take the cake for and will truly inspire you as you plan your big day in 2021 or 2022:
