What is a celebration without a cake being cut? Cake cutting not only holds significance as a traditional practice but it is also one of the most fun parts of any celebration. Traditionally cakes at weddings were served once the couple cut the cake right after they exchanged vows and then this very cake was served at the reception - this would be more of a Christian wedding setup. However, with time and evolution of weddings the cake cutting ceremony became a mandate of every happy ceremony that takes place at Indian weddings of any culture. The designs and the taste and the flavour of the wedding cake is what makes it unique and memorable for all.
While the cake signifies a good omen for the couple who just got married, feeding the cake to each other after the ceremony is also a mark of commitment that the couple makes towards each other. Whether you want cakes for your bachelorette, engagement, wedding, reception or even for your baby shower and birthdays in general - WeddingWire India enlists numerous cake providers from all over the country who can fulfil your requirements.

What can you ask a wedding cake baker?
There are certain queries that you must have and certain that you might miss while having THE conversation with the wedding cake provider. We have listed a few of the questions you can ask your wedding cake baker or wedding cake provider.
- Availability: You need to know the right time to order your wedding cake. Baker’s and wedding cake shops in demand might have a hard time delivering their best work if you come in at the last minute, especially when the Saya season is on. Check their availability on the required dates and time.
- Prices: Most bakers and wedding cake makers have a price per kg system. However, you can ask them the prices depending on the designs and of course weight too. A tiered cake will cost you more than a simple traditional cake with simple piping and no fondant. Check the possibilities before fixing the prices.
- Flavours: There are endless flavours available when it comes to wedding cakes and the prices of the cakes also depend on them. In case you want a rare flavour in your cake, you might need to confirm if the baker can provide for the same or not beforehand.
- Customisation: Before you even place an order, you might have a basic idea of how you want your wedding cake to look. You can check Pinterest and Instagram too for inspiration. You can ask your baker if they can customise cakes as per preferences or will you have to choose from select designs that they offer.
- Delivery/Pickup: Most bakers will deliver the cakes to your doorstep if the wedding venue is nearby. Check with the bakers if they will deliver to your venue or you will need to arrange for a pickup. These might include packaging or setup costs if any.
- Tasting: If you are looking for a different flavour apart from the mainstream ones or maybe you want to taste how exactly the strawberry cake or vanilla muffins taste, you can ask the baker or cake shop to allow you a testing session where you can try some or all the flavours that they have to help you pick the right flavour of wedding cake.
