Major Moves: 12 Gorgeous Wedding Cakes with Movement

Blue Modern Wedding Cake by Jasmine Rae Cakes

Cake confession: we’re currently being SUCKED IN by the San Fran bakery phenom that is Jasmine Rae Cakes! Her designs are giving the saying too pretty to eat a whole new meaning. We love the whimsy + unexpectedness of these cakes…giving us major feelings! If it’s not the variety of forms that these cakes take on that’s so enticing, it’s the incredible use of color that draws our eyes up + down and all around.

So, we dove into this movement a bit more (because we know there are others out there obsessing, too) to discover more cakes with movement and the mad talents behind them.

Here’s what we’re loving – indulge with us:

Muted Moving Colors

Not your average cake colors, right? We love the muted colors used in these designs. The pale colors and sugar work give these designs such an elevated look.

Soothing White Moves

Yes, we can’t help but love a classic white wedding cake – but there’s nothing classic about these rad cakes. The folds of fondant and unexpected forms that designs draw our eyes up and highlight each detail along the way!

Rice paper is another design element these genius bakers are adding to their cakes to add movement and moves. It almost takes on a crystallized look as it cascades along the sides!
