8 of the World’s Most Stunning (and Expensive) Wedding Cakes

These are more than your “Office Birthday Party” cakes. They’re more than treats you buy yourself after a long day at the office to have with your favorite herbal tea. They’re cakes that are there to commemorate an event during which you tell the whole world that you love another person. They’re wedding cakes, and they’re extremely expensive wedding cakes.

In fact, these are the 8 most expensive wedding cakes ever!

National Gay Wedding Show – $52,000,000

This cake wasn’t actually made for a wedding, but it was created for the National Gay Wedding show. It’s the world’s most expensive wedding cake, it was made of 8 layers, and it was decorated with 4,000 diamonds. I don’t know if people actually ate the diamonds (I know I’d be very scared for my teeth), but they did set the record for the most expensive wedding cake in the world.

Debbie Wingham (designer) cake – $1 Million

This cake isn’t the most expensive cake, but it’s hands down the most impressive cake on this list. First of all, it looks amazing! It looks better than most mannequins in clothing stores and statues on the streets of our home cities. It cost $1 million to make and weighed 120kg. More than the source material, sure, but also you know there was plenty to go around!

It was fully edible and was made using 1,000 eggs and 20kg of chocolate!

William and Kate’s $80,000 white wonder

This cake was as royal as the couple whose wedding it was made for. Designed by Fiona Cairns, this cake was covered with 900 sugar paste flowers (17 different varieties!). These included the English rose (obviously), Scottish thistle, Welsh daffodils, and Irish shamrock.
