What Can A Nautical Cake Look Like?

If you go for just navy and white styling with stripes and some neutral blooms, you gonna get an outdated and boring wedding cake. To give it a fresh and modern look, you will need some more detailing, and that can be an anchor, rope, rope knots, pearls and beads, fresh blooms and succulents of various colors, seashells and driftwood, greenery and sea urchins. Even if you are going for white buttercream, you may rock textural buttercream to achieve more eye-catchiness. You may also top the cake with two boats instead of usual toppers. Try naked wedding cakes, brushstroke and watercolor techniques, metallic leaf, handpainting and other trendy ways to decorate your cake to get a masterpiece. Enjoy!
