Would you go for any of these?
The traditional wedding cake is getting a huge makeover for 2018, according to Pinterest.
Brides and grooms are moving away from “towering behemoths” with tiers of vanilla, chocolate, or even red velvet, to more fruit-centric and minimalistic designs.
And it looks like people looking to say ‘I do’ are really keen about the idea of a fig cake.
In their Wedding Report 2018, Pinterest said that searches for fig cakes have gone up by over 500 per cent.
