Your wedding cake will help you to show off your wedding theme even better. I’ve prepared a whole bunch of ideas for moody wedding cakes to get you inspired.
Drip Cakes
Drip wedding cakes are the hottest wedding trend right now because they look delicious and refined at the same time. Moody and dark wedding cakes with drip have a special chic, whatever colors and décor you prefer and whatever taste you like. These are mostly naked and semi naked wedding cakes with chocolate, caramel, pomegranate drip and topped with fresh flowers, berries and fruit. Rock dark or light colors, a moody cake isn’t always dark, it can be made moody with detailing, for example, an almond cake with honey glaze can be topped with figs and blackberries and voila – it looks moody!

Metallic Cakes
Dark-colored cakes can be made special and cool with metallic décor, which is another super hot wedding trend.

Copper, gold and silver edible leaf decor in some asymmetrical way or one tier covered with metallic leaf. It can be topped with herbs, fresh blooms and maybe fruit. Marbelized cakes are also awesome, this is one more hot trend for wedidng cakes, and they look great with metallic décor, so this is another option to try.
