The latest trend for wedding cakes is the geode cake: a cake that looks like it has a piece of what looks like geode rock—like those big slabs of amethyst—baked right into it using bits of rock candy.
I used to make mud pies in my back yard with rocks in them all the time when I was a kid. Apparently I was ahead of my time; I should totally have been a baker.
Then again, maybe not. My mud-and-rock creations didn’t look anywhere as amazing as these beautiful cakes.
The trend lets brides bring more colour into their weddings in new and unique ways.
