Beach Wedding Cake Ideas: Sea Shell Shaped Individual Cakes

Sea Shell Shaped Beach Wedding Cakes Anyone Can Make

This easy to make Sea Shell Shaped Beach Wedding Cakes are perfect for a wedding reception. If you are looking for a fun new way to share your beach wedding cake with your guests, then you have to try making these Sea Shell Shaped Cakes. Your wedding guests can each have their own whole cake served to them on individual plates.

This is an elegant and new twist on the traditional beach wedding cake ideas.

To Make Sea Shell Shaped Beach Wedding Cakes You Will need:
1 of your favorite boxed white cake mixes
1 - 2 Tub of Vanilla icing
White Tube Writing Icing (2 to 3 tubes)
1 Letter or alphabet cookie cutter (about 4 inches wide)

Bake your favorite cake mix as usual. You need to bake it in a 13" X 9" baking pan. You can bake two cakes (or more for a large wedding) and cut them out exactly the same to make a large number of Sea Shell Shaped Beach Wedding Cakes.

Once the cake has cooled flip it out of the baking pans onto a large platter, carving board, or whatever you have.

Now, stick the wedding cake in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes. You want to slightly freeze is, but not freeze it completely. This will help you cut it into the shape of the Sea Shell Shaped Beach Wedding Cakes.

Now, use a Sea Shell shaped cookie cutter that is at least 4 inches wide and tall to cut out the Sea Shell on the sheet cake. Simply press the cookie cutter in like you would cookie dough. Pop the Sea Shell out and lay them on a flat surface.

You should find this sheet cake cuts easily into the shape of these Sea Shell Shaped Wedding Cakes since it is chilled and slightly frozen. This will make the cake much more easy to cut and get crisp clean edges of the Sea Shell.

Now, you really should go ahead and place these Sea Shell Shaped Wedding Cakes on a board or serving platter before you decorate it. You will not be able to move it once you decorate it or you will ruin it.

Now, take your 1 tub of the icing. You can use any colors that you want to match your beach wedding. To make these elegant I recommend leaving them in white and outline in white piping icing.

You may need both tubs (or more) to adequacy cover a large number of Sea Shell Shaped Wedding Cakes.
