Textured Buttercream Cakes are Trending in 2016

Keeping you in the know of all of the latest 2016 cake trends is our duty. It's why we thought it worthwhile to talk to you about how cake makers are pushing boundaries when it comes to buttercream cakes. We expect to see a lot more of them in 2016. Buttercream is considered a more classic cake frosting over the more modern and sculpt-able fondant.

Yet, who can blame this yummy frosting for making a comeback especially because it's tasty and the best thing about it is that you can work it to create all kinds of different textures. Ways we think you'll see it being used this year is to create thick clouds of sugary yumminess, but you'll also see lots of buttercream flowers, various heavenly pastel colors, and a fresher more bold appearance using lines, indentations and shapes. It's really exciting to think of the new innovation we will see that push the boundaries of the traditional buttercream cakes we're used to. Take a look at some of the ways we've used buttercream in the past that mimic ways we think it will be used in the future.
