Make Your Own Wedding Cake


Make your own wedding cake by following step by step instructions from the best in the business . . .Wilton! This wonderful 60 minute DVD takes you through the process by showing you how to bake, icing, decorate . . .literally creating a work of art for your guests palate. The mystery of those elaborate tiered cakes is revealed as you see exactly how to do it. You will feel like you're attending your own private Wilton decorating class - except you have the privilege of watching it over and over again!


Baking a Wedding Cake


Start with the perfect tips on baking - including preparing and filling the pans, to directions on how to know when it's done baking.

How to Level a Cake


There are a couple of ways to level your cake, but the easiest is with a Wilton Leveler. This is also great for torting a cake. This means cutting into several different layers to put icing or other fillings in between.

Filling Layers with Icing



Use Wilton's disposable icing bags and a large round tip to begin adding icing between layers. Smooth with a Wilton spatula for a perfect finish.


The same spatula will serve nicely to smooth icing over the outside of the cake.




Your tier is now ready to be decorated with fresh flowers, icing decorations, ready to use decorative scrolls , ropes of pearls or covering with fondant.



I hope this simple tutorial from the makers of Wilton cake suppliesinspires you with confidence to make your own. However, I always encourage my brides NOT TO TRY TO DO IT ALL!!

Cake Decorating Ideas


Wilton wedding cakes are not only featured in their marvelous books, but there are also step-by-step pictures and directions on making every single cake featured. Between the DVD and the Wilton cake decorating books, learning how to make your own wedding cake couldn't be easier!
