Your wedding (or birthday) cake doesn’t have to be plain and traditional anymore. Instead, you can go another route and base it off your favorite Disney film without it being too obvious (and if it is, who cares?). These cakes will get your brain going with creative, beautiful and tasteful wedding cakes while planning your special day.
Cinderella
The first Cinderella-inspired wedding cake has outstanding floral work and features the two blue birds that help Cinderella get ready in the morning.
This second cake is based off of the pumpkin-shaped carriage Cinderella rides in to get to the ball, with fondant that looks like cloth from her dress draping down each tier.
Rapunzel
This cake is inspired by Rapunzel’s tower. The inspiration is very subtle, but the purple bloom that curls along the side of the tiers is a nod to Rapunzel’s purple dress and also represents her long hair winding down to the ground.
Alice in Wonderland
This not-so-subtle Alice in Wonderland wedding cake is quirky just like the film. The tiers are not stacked straight but are tilted to give the perfect balance of elegance and quirkiness.
Aladdin
The bride and groom can always decide what Disney couple represents them and incorporate that comparison into a beautiful wedding cake for every guest to admire.
Up
This upside down wedding cake shows that this newly married couple is ready to set off on their very own adventure, grow old together, and live happily ever after.
Frozen
The designs on these cakes are subtle, but we can all tell the inspiration comes from the film Frozen. This cake is perfect for a winter wedding with the blue swirls and the white snowflakes.
Beauty and the Beast
These three beautiful wedding cakes all represent a different aspect of the film Beauty and the Beast. The first is designed based upon the stain-glass windows we see in the opening scene of the film, complimented with beautiful red roses since a red rose is a primary symbol of the movie.
The second cake features the colors of Belle’s and Beast’s clothes, and they are draped down the square tiers so that it looks like cloth is hanging off the edge of the cake.
The third cake captures the main essence of the story: the flower is showing Beast how much time he has left before he is cursed forever. Belle is the one who is able to break the spell, making it an incredible love story to show off on a wedding cake.
Sleeping Beauty
This creative wedding cake is identical to Aurora’s birthday cake that her three god-fairies attempted to make. Though clumsy, it is definitely different than your average wedding cake.
Robin Hood
Much like the Aladdin-inspired cake, this cake is simply based off the atmosphere of the film Robin Hood, and the couple who is featured in it.
Cinderella’s Castle
This is probably the main inspiration for all wedding cakes. Cinderella’s castle signifies a happily ever after for all newly weds.
