Cakes

Beautiful cakes are always a part of any special event. For weddings, cakes have been part of the ceremony since the days of the ancient Romans. And of course the cutting of the cake is always a favorite part of the celebration for guests. The tradition began in the Victorian era and has since become a bonding moment for couples and a great opportunity for photos.
