Anyone for wedding cake?
Is it really a wedding if you didnāt have a trad wedding cake the size of a small island ? š
I remember you could count on one hand the guests that would eat the fruit cake, but it was tradition, and thereās an element of guilt, upgrading to new ways, and ideas. š¤
Itās so much easier sticking with the āsafe zoneā of tradition.
Changing things up, leaves much room for conflict, and different opinions. Splits between those whoāll embrace modernity, and innovation, and those who struggle with change.
Understanding how we respectfully, and consciously support change, across generations, is key.
I mean, thereās no way I would convince Maureen (Mum) that the old school fruit cake wrapped in marzipan, wasnāt getting a look in, at a wedding, and who am I to burst her bubble? š
Traditions are there to be respected.
A nod of thanks to our past.
And thereās no harm in keeping traditional methods alive, in parallel to modern day practices.
Also, no harm in embracing modern, inclusive, practices, that explores the ways in which everyone gets a look in.
I didnāt get to see this cake creation on the day. It was such a hit with the young-enās, it vanished before I remembered to have a look!
I was so glad to receive this pic as a reminder of my modern take on wedding cake š
