15 Unique Black Wedding Cakes

Black Wedding Cakes Inspiration
If I could change something about my wedding cake, I’d be sure to have a black wedding cake with some pink! Black wedding cakes are incredibly romantic and stylish. Recently, I was inspired by recent black Valentine’s Day cakes, so I thought wedding cakes with a black color scheme would be fun to explore! It’s such a unique & moody theme for couples who want to stray from traditional wedding colors. Here are some recent cakes to check out!

I’m loving the gold splatter on this splendid wedding cake! Also, the pop of color is a perfect accent on the black buttercream.

This cake is just gorgeous with the textures, smooth edges, and a SKULL! It’s ideal for skull lovers. 💀
