Splitting from tradition

Nikki Harvey didn’t want a traditional wedding cake. She had a unique vision.

Harvey wanted her cake to taste like a banana split sundae.

When her wedding day came around, she found her unique cake was a pleasant surprise for wedding guests.

“People are used to the traditional wedding white with raspberry filling or an almond blend,” Harvey said. “So to have our guests be that excited to try that and be going back for more … it felt really good that that was something that they remembered as part of our special day.”

Another recent bride, Jenna Koebler, visited more bakeries than she did wedding dress shops, she said.

Her cake featured different fillings in each of the layers. All of the cake was almond flavored, but flavors included chocolate mousse with fudge, cherry nut pineapple and raspberry, and strawberry and Bavarian cream.
