Selecting the right bakeries and wedding cakes is one of the most fun parts of planning your Columbus, Ohio wedding. Do you want to design a cake that could be worthy of inclusion in the Columbus Museum of Art? Or would you prefer a simple dessert, such as a sheet cake that will serve a large room full of guests? Columbus bakeries specialize in a wide range of wedding cakes, so you can choose any flavors and shapes you like.

Besides wedding cakes, Columbus bakeries can make desserts to match the theme of any party. Are you a fan of the Columbus Blue Jackets? How about serving cupcakes with red, blue, and silver icing? Columbus bakeries also specialize in ornate birthday cakes that can take the shape of objects and characters from your favorite movies, books, or games. It helps to bring in sketches of your ideal cake when you commission it.

Be sure to ask bakeries what types of wedding cakes they recommend for your celebration. Sometimes, compromise is necessary if you want a specific ingredient, shape, or type of icing. Also, wedding cakes are affected by outside factors such as the temperature of the reception venue, which will influence what ingredients you can use without your wedding cake melting. You may also want to choose wedding cakes with a budget in mind–ask Columbus bakeries what factors contribute to cost. If you want your wedding cake to match a specific color, such as your bridesmaids' dresses, you can bring a swatch of material into your meeting and ask the bakery to mix a precise color of icing.
