This one is for the orchid lovers out there! Hand-crafted sugar-dough white orchids cascading against a three tier pale cantaloupe-colored cake. White dots of royal icing and the hexagonal shape of the cake convey a fresh and different tone from the usual round wedding cake. You can always opt for fresh dendrobium orchids instead of the sugar flowers for a more tropical vibe. Alternatively, you can also go for cymbidium or phalaenopsis orchids if your wedding theme and setting is going to be a more intimate and classy affair.

All featured cakes are taken from the Spring 2008, InStyle Weddings Magazine (U.S. edition).
