It is best to choose the wedding cakes Baltimore according to the theme and motif of your wedding. It depends on you how many layers you want.

Typically, there are some couples who want their cakes to have three, four, b five or even six layers depending on their preference. Making a choice for this matter must be agreed properly. Choosing the color of the cake is also another decision to make. But, it is better to request for a cake that will complement to your motif. For example, if your motif is yellow, then yellow accents can be added and even flowers.
