Best Wedding Cake Substitutes are Cake Pops
The days when a two or three-tier fruitcake was the absolute standard at weddings are long gone. There are now a lot of alternatives to the traditional wedding cake that you can choose from. The cake pops arrangement is the most popular substitute. Each wedding cake pop is presented on a stick to make eating them more convenient. Because of the cake-on-a-stick burst, you won't need to bother with dessert forks or the like.
Feel free to experiment with other combinations of flavors rather than just one. For instance, you may request that the baker make various cake pops with flavors like chocolate, toffee, fruit, caramel, and coconut. The newlywed couple's initials in icing sugar on each pop would be a very sweet finishing touch.
