Cheap Wedding Cakes:
Have Your Cake & Eat it Too!
Don't let the notion of cheap wedding cakes conjure up a notion of cheap wedding taste. You can have a magnificent cake that tastes just as magnificent, without going over your budget.
The cost of wedding cakes these days is simply put, ridiculous, and can easily put any wedding over budget. Professionally made cakes can range anywhere from $4-$17 per slice. Invite just 100 people and you are looking at an average price tag of $1,050 - not including delivery and set up charges! - for a bunch of flour, eggs and sugar. You probably paid less for your wedding dress!
Wedding cakes are amazing works of art and a lot of focus will be put on it during your reception, but that’s absolutely no reason why it should break your budget.
