Here are some great tips on wedding cake flavors from Kayla Knight Cakes www.KaylaKnightCakes.com
"Stick
to one basic flavor for the bride's cake and if you have a groom's cake
you can do something a little more unique or taste specific. By
choosing a traditional white cake or maybe a yellow or spice the
majority of guests will enjoy it. Punch it up with a yummy fruit
filling and you are good to go! Use your groom's cake to be the cake
with the more taste specific flavors, like a black forest or red velvet
cake. There aren't as many servings, so you aren't wasting cake that
goes uneaten. Plus, guests still have the more basic bride's cake to
choose from as well.
But
what about having each tier a different flavor? Well, a bride can
certainly do that, but I personally don't recommend it. When the cake
is cut they begin at the top and serve the entire top tier. Then, we
move onto the second tier and serve that and so forth. Therefore, your
guests will not actually get to choose what flavor they want. They are
served whatever tier is being cut at the time they are in line. Not to
mention, the top tiers will only serve a few people, so just a handful
of people will get certain flavors while others are left to the larger
tiers. When guests see another guest walking around with a different
flavor sometimes it causes guests to go back for seconds to sample that
new flavor, and there is a possibility that you can run out of cake.
Or, what if that flavor is gone? So disappointing.
All that to
say, I personally recommend only serving one flavor per cake to keep
things simple and your guests happy. Too many flavors can cause
confusion and chaos at the cake table."
